Please do not fall for this performance. He's distancing himself from white supremacist terrorism so he can continue to help enact white supremacist policies. It's all part of the same system. Dude hasn't offered a sincere thought his whole life. 
I feel like we're so starved for politicians who will at least adequately perform the role of "bringing the country together" the bar has sunk below the floor. Ted Cruz is not trying to unite the country anymore than Trump is.
It's a con. That Cruz is trying to run this con is an acknowledgment of the electoral danger of how extreme Trump has gotten, but it isn't a statement of principles because he has none. Until he publicly severs himself from Trump and Trumpism, consider it all for show.
Ivanka is trying to protect her brand. If she gave a crap about the lives of people being harmed by white supremacy she'd be talking on the record about the poison her father injects into the country's cultural bloodstream.
Great thread of a full list of conservatives performing concern over white supremacist terrorism. It's too many not to be a tactic to retrench around not actually doing anything about it.
