Ted Cruz gets a birther lawsuit challenge

Ted Cruz implored a Tea Party audience here on Saturday to examine closely the record of candidates like Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, warning a crowd not to get “burned” by fake brothers in arms even as he declined to utter his rivals’ names.

The departing candidates will leave enough voters behind to help Cruz or Rubio make the race closer, but they also might add to Trump’s lead. Cruz was born in Canada of an American mother and a Cuban father. Cruz made sure to knock Republican candidates like Rubio who Cruz sees as insufficiently tough on immigration – which is also one of Trump’s signature issues.

Messages requesting comment were left with the governor’s and mayor’s offices regarding Cruz’s latest remarks Friday night.

“When the World Trade Center came down, I saw something that no place on Earth could have handled more beautifully, more humanely than New York”, Trump said to applause.

“She meant Jewish”, Toby says with a sarcastic grin, “When she said ‘New York sense of humor'”.

Fox Business Network hosted the first Republican debate of 2016 on Thursday, and Trump and Cruz engaged each other directly over questions about Cruz’s Canadian birth and his criticism of Trump’s “New York values”.

Trump came to New York’s defense, citing its response to the September 11 attacks.

When Ted Cruz sneered at what he called Donald Trump’s “New York values”, some New Yorkers took it very personally.

Cruz, who suddenly has started criticizing Trump after seven months of refusing to do so, essentially offered SC voters a roadmap to vet him.

Just one debate remains before Iowa’s February 1 caucuses.

Trump’s experienced Texas campaign manager quit last week, leaving him with little leadership here and probably an expensive TV campaign.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was mentioned often by the candidates, and the attacks were often in the form of one-liners. Ted Cruz and everyone on the stage launching attacks on Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton. He added, “No wonder the banks do so well in the U.S. Senate”.

“There are many, many wonderful, wonderful working men and women in the state of New York, but everyone understands that the values in New York City are socially liberal, are pro-abortion, are pro-gay marriage, focus around money and the media”, Cruz said. “It’s risky. And I’ll call him out and I think more and more people are saying you know what it used to be to some people entertaining, it’s not entertaining anymore, it’s unsafe”, de Blasio previously said on CNN.

Cuomo and de Blasio went on to write of Cruz, “For someone who has so much hostility toward our city and state, he spends an bad lot of time begging for money from our residents”.
