Ted Cruz says Donald Trump has ‘NY values,’ the Internet cries anti-Semitism
He also dismissed South Carolina Sen.
Asked by a reporter after a SC event Friday if he would apologize for his comments, Cruz responded, “Well, you’re right, Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and Andrew Cuomo and Bill de Blasio have all demanded an apology, and I’m happy to apologize”.
“However persuasive, one finds each side in this debate, the final decision ultimately rests in the hands of five or more of nine Justices on the Supreme Court as mandated by the Constitution”.
You might have wanted a little more detail, though, on what it is Haley apparently does believe, which, as Gawker (1/13/16) pointed out, is pretty weird. “They were wrong. It’s the New York Times, they are always wrong”.
The LA Times thought Haley’s showing in her rebuttal speech would have “implications for her future”.
Cruz got into trouble during the Fox Business debate on Thursday when he said, “Everyone understands that the values in New York City are socially liberal or pro-abortion or pro-gay marriage, focus around money and the media”. Ted Cruz’s citizenship status?
“Not true”, the Republican said, adding that Cruz did not co-sponsor or vote in favor of the Zadroga 9/11 Health & Compensation Act. Meanwhile, Trump spent much of the day slamming his top GOP rival in a repeated Twitter spree so fierce – even for a candidate who is notable for taunting and insulting his opponents – it prompted prominent conservative commentator Mark Levin to publicly tell the real-estate mogul to back off.
The idea of Trump capturing the Republican nomination seemed highly unlikely just months ago, but it was sinking in as an actual possibility this week across the Republican Party. Instead, he told conservative New Yorkers he is sorry they have to live with liberal leadership.
“This 229-year question has never been pled, presented to or finally decided by or resolved by the U.S. Supreme Court”.
The mayor called Cruz’s remarks hypocritical Friday.
This is friendlier towards free trade compared to the Democrats, whose three candidates have all expressed their opposition towards TPP despite the support of Barack Obama. In October, Levin said on his radio show that Cruz is the “most consistently conservative candidate running”.
Cruz failed to report large loans from Citibank and Goldman Sachs – hence Trump’s tweets about Cruz siding with big banks.
But he said Trump’s “policy prescriptions will take us in the wrong direction, and it won’t be long before many of those people are angry at him and angry at Republicans again”. “He’s not as sensational in his comments as the others, but there’s a good quality to that, and I think that’s also something you look for in a president”, Chaffetz said.
