Did Cruz actually label DJT as irresponsible?

He said it was irresponsible to claim that he won big before proving it in the courts first, that’s pretty much it.

That's just two competing styles but the saying goes. The squeaky wheel is the one who gets the oil. You either be loud and complain or you get forced to submit. Trump fights while Cruz tries to find a more even handed approach.

So basically he's being a cowardly, feckless lawyer afraid to call a spade a spade.

Trump didn't perform the ceremony in a court of law to get his statements declared "proven" so it's irresponsible of him to say those things! Nevermind that a) Trump isn't a lawyer and b) the entire judicial system is known at this point to be riddled with corruption.

This is why I loath lawyers. Judicial zealotry is a luxury we can only afford when the country is free of corruption. I for one won't be voting for this fightless, booger-eating turd in the primary. I'd rather elect a ham sandwich over Cruz.

Thanks. That's way different than saying Trump's claims or speech promoted violence.

We'd all like for election fraud and DJT victory to have been proven in the Courts. Never got the chance. Laches don't you know ...

Also, by presenting a case in Court, you're making a "claim." So Cruz sux balls here, but is still defending Trump as far as I can see.

He's not saying Trump himself is irresponsible. He made a short comment about how specific statements were irresponsible. in particular claiming he had won in a landslide. Based on my view of the evidence, Trump did win in a landslide. And that's based on EVIDENCE, and not vague kracken, or q-anon style stuff that's vague with weak support.

So I dissagree with Cruz's statement, but he's not really bashing Trump that harshly.

For example, I could say the manner in which Cruz worded his critique in those few seconds was irresponsible, but it's not really the same as me accusing Cruz of being irresponsible in general. Cruz is 90% to 95% on our side, which I'll take over nearly everyone else in DC.

Thanks. This is known as quote mining, what the article did. I agree 100% with your assessment. I could apologize for Cruz further, saying he's merely re-stating what Trump said, fine tuning it for his audience.

We'll really know when we see how Cruz votes on impeachment. I think it should be tossed, just like the last one.
