Cruz comes under fire for comments on ‘New York values’

The day featured addresses by potential presidential candidates.

“Everybody that loves the people of New York”, Trump wrote, “and all they have been [through] should get hypocrites like Ted Cruz out of politics!” “I made a quip that perhaps he ought to play ‘New York, New York, ‘ and Donald got very upset with that”.

John Markowski, a minister who was dropping his son off at a public school, said, “It’s insulting for anyone to make a derogatory comment about NY values”.

King also criticized Cruz for opposing funding for relief after Superstorm Sandy and then pushing for relief from floods in Texas. “I apologize to the millions of New Yorkers who have been abandoned for years by liberal politicians”, he told reporters late Friday.

Houston attorney Newton Schwartz filed the suit in a federal court on Thursday to determine if Cruz is a “natural born citizen” of America.

The Daily News headlined: “Drop Dead, Ted – Hey, Cruz: You don’t like N.Y. values?”

“When the World Trade Centre came down, I saw something that no place on Earth could have handled more beautifully, more humanely than NY”, he told the debate’s audience.

Not a lot of New Yorkers have given money to Cruz’s bid for the White House.

Cruz wrapped up the exchange by noting how he was glad to hear in Trump’s response that he’d consider him as his running mate.

Trump said that he liked Cruz and believed him to be a “nice guy”, but “as it turned out, he finally went off the wagon a little bit and went a little bit insane”.

Frazier added: “It is Donald Trump who first said that his NY values are different from Iowa’s”.

During Thursday night’s debate, Trump delivered a withering rebuke to Cruz’s attack, praising New York City’s resilience after 9/11.

On Saturday, responding to Trump’s social media assault, Cruz derided Trump’s newfound “nervous energy”.

The crowd in SC booed loudly as he made it, and he admitted he was only doing it because Cruz’s poll numbers were improving.

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ chances for the Democratic nomination continue to slowly increase, with his odds at 22%, but Hillary Clinton remains the clear front-runner in the Prediction Market at 78%. “I told you so”, the bombastic billionaire tweeted early Saturday.

Trump began the morning slamming Cruz in a series of tweets, taking a break to appear at a campaign event in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, before resuming his tirade.
