Escalating otherwise peaceful debate into criminal activity is something you should strongly condemn, but it appears that the sympathies for those who escalate are running high on the Democrat side of the isle these day's. Do you ever consider that you are wrong on your views regarding the issue's or are you just a brainwashed knucklehead that has lost his way in life ??

No idea what you are vaguely referencing.
As is typical, being unable to address my comments on your positions, you just resort to name calling.

I'm discussing Cruz's position on free speech and Trump calling his wife ugly.
No idea what you seem to be rambling about.
That was TEN BLOODY YEARS AGO and it was said after Ted's Pac started shit about Melania!!! I recall once knocking out a bloke in a Rugby game and found out later it was a different asshole who did a cheap shot on me with an elbow; I've always felt bad that I got the wrong one but have solace in that the two pricks were on the same side. Meh you dill!!!

You've obviously not read anything I've said concerning Biden.
Hmmm; the Guardian said it so it MUST be true!!!!!! 
The Cruz Pac started it; both mature MEN ended it. Eventually. lol
In a memoir obtained by the Guardian, former campaign manager risks embarrassing powerful rivals with description of apology

Donald Trump made an uncharacteristic apology to Ted Cruz after insulting his wife and father during the 2016 campaign – only for the Texas senator still to refuse to endorse Trump at the Republican convention.
Paul Manafort admits indirectly advising Trump in 2020 but keeping it secret in wait for pardon
Read more
In a new memoir, Trump’s then campaign manager, Paul Manafort, writes: “On his own initiative, Trump did apologise for saying some of the things he said about Cruz, which was unusual for Trump.”
The telling vignette – possibly an embarrassing one for two powerful Republicans who have since formed an alliance of convenience – is contained in Political Prisoner: Persecuted, Prosecuted, but Not Silenced, which will be published in the US next month. The Guardian obtained a copy.
Manafort was Trump’s campaign manager between May and August 2016.
Imprisoned on tax charges in a case arising from the investigation of Russian election interference and links between Trump and Moscow, Manafort did not turn on Trump and received a pardon just before the end of Trump’s time in power.
In his memoir, he denies collusion with Russia, bemoans his experiences at the hands of the US justice system, admits indirectly advising Trump in 2020 while in home confinement, and expresses strong support for another Trump campaign in 2024.
In 2016, in a brutal primary, Trump insinuated Cruz’s wife was ugly and linked his father to the assassination of John F Kennedy. He also questioned whether Cruz, born in Canada, was qualified to be US president and coined a lasting nickname, Lyin’ Ted.
Manafort’s description of a Trump apology for such slurs may come as a surprise to both men.
Trump is famous for never apologising, whether in his business career or in his seven-year careen across the US political scene.
And when Cruz eventually came onside with Trump, in September 2016, he said: “Neither he nor his campaign has ever taken back a word they said about my wife and my family.”
Now Manafort says Trump did apologise – and to Cruz’s face at that.
Describing a meeting meant to get Cruz’s support before the convention in Cleveland in July, Manafort writes that the senator said he would work with the man who beat him into second in the primary but would not formally endorse him, “because his supporters didn’t want him to”.
Manafort writes: “It was a forced justification for someone who is normally very logical. Trump didn’t buy it.”
Trump nonetheless apologised, Manafort writes, then “told Cruz he considered him an ally, not an enemy, and that he believed they could work together when Trump was president.”
At least initially, Trump’s effort was in vain. In his speech at the convention, Cruz did not endorse Trump and was booed by the crowd. The senator’s wife, Heidi Cruz, was escorted out of the arena, out of concern for her safety.

Why are you digging up bones that neither Trump or Cruz gives a chit about today ? Oh I know, it's because like anything the left does it because the left has no policy positions, no solutions, no answer's or anything when it comes to answering for the anarchy and chaos that the left has created today, so go back as far as needed in order to battle the present with irrelevant stuff from the past.
