Donald Trump: Ted Cruz Is A ‘Nasty Guy’ And ‘Nobody Likes Him’
Ted Cruz said Donald Trump has been part of the corruption in Washington and would be “yet another Republican to cozy up to Chuck Schumer” as president. Trump says Cruz is a nasty guy.
“Before I was a politician, to be honest with you, my views change and everybody’s views change”, Trump said.
“I thought, if this is what it is, I really ain’t too sure about it”, said Peters, 65. “So, you know, my views are a little bit different than if I lived in Iowa”. “Instead of celebrating Christmas, New Yorkers celebrate a pagan holiday called ‘Festivus'”.
During a speech at the conservative Christian college Liberty University, Trump promised to “protect Christianity”.
The statement was taken by some as a direct shot at a tough gun control measure enacted by NY in early 2013 in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., school shootings.
On last night’s episode of SNL, Cruz, played by Taran Killam, mocked the candidate’s thinly-veiled dig at NY stereotypes, describing “New York values” as scenes from the 1990’s sitcom “Seinfeld”.
Trump says Cruz is a good guy.
“Donald explained that he was very, very pro-choice and supported partial-birth abortion”.
Dozens of people interviewed by The Associated Press in recent weeks at Trump rallies across the state say that while his team is active online, they have had relatively little personal contact from the campaign.
Nearly exactly two years ago to the day, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo told WCNY radio host Susan Arbetter that “extreme conservatives” who are “right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay”, have “no place in the state of New York”.
Many said they had yet to receive a phone call or a campaign mailing. “On the policy issues, he used to be in favor of legalizing people that are here illegally, and he said so in front of one audience, but then he puts off – portrays this sort of notion that he’s the harshest and hardest when it comes to that issue, that’s not been his record”. He failed to disclose them at the time, as required by law, to the Federal Election Commission. “That formulation didn’t come from me, it came from Trump”, Cruz said.
Trump told reporters that Cruz was “a friend of mine” and “a good guy”.
Cruz’s relationships with the banks -the terms, the collateral – suggested to many in the media that Cruz would likely come under fire during last week’s Republican debate.
In addition, a report cited that when Trump was leading the Republican polls in September, he was asked whether Cruz, who was born in Canada to an American mother, is eligible for presidency.
Most of Cruz’s competitors have meantime been silent. “If you’re a big government person you want your citizenry docile and ignorant and unarmed”. As the Boston Globe’s Matt Viser pointed out, the fight over NY values is “the first time in the GOP race that someone not named Trump has set the agenda”.
Cruz’s loans from Goldman and Citi were perfectly legal and reveal no more Wall Street influence over his campaign than any other candidate who receives campaign contributions from big banks.
