Political murder

I don’t know which is more despicable, that two people would wantonly slaughter 14 others or that a United States senator and presidential candidate would try to characterize the tragedy in Democrat vs. Republican terms.

Sen. Ted Cruz has clearly bested Donald Trump in his absurd partisan ranting. He should be ashamed, but like Trump, he’s incapable of the concept.

I’m ashamed, as an American, that we have such people who seem to have support on the public stage.
