I'll try not to use too many words this time.
You said "Cruz et al, went to the microphones and immediately started blaming it on Trump."
Citing, one can only assume, his comments on Friday, the most obviously pertinent being:
"Earlier today over thirty people were arrested at one rally. And then tonight, as violence broke out, the rally was canceled all together. Now, the responsibility for that lies with protesters who took violence into their own hands."
That in plain English blames the protesters, not Trump.
Those who persist in insisting that "Cruz sided with the protesters" are simply wrong. Some, who know this to be the case, and repeat the lie, are themselves liars.
You ought to put this in breaking news Mr. salom.
“Cruz did not blame Trump for the violent attacks in Chicago”
Do it!
