Love how New Yorkers love insulting other Americans, but go into a liberal victimhood hissy-fit if anyone pushes back.

C'mon Ted Cruz, bring it!!!

Trump, in 2013, endorsed communist Bill De Blasio for New York City mayor. He supports Obama's opening up to communist Cuba. He loves KGB Putin. He, in his mid-50s, supported gays in the military AND partial birth abortion.

DONALD TRUMP [on Larry King Show (2009), referring to the then newly elected communist president]: "Well, I really like him. I think that he's working very hard. He's trying to rebuild our reputation throughout the world. I mean, we really have lost a lot of reputation in the world. The previous administration [GW Bush] was a total disaster, a total catastrophe."

And I'm not saying I agree with everything he's doing. I do agree with what they're doing with the banks. Whether they FUND THEM or NATIONALIZE them, it doesn't matter, but you have to keep the banks going."

Due to personal insults from Cruz supporters, I will NEVER vote for Cruz for ANY office.

Nothing new here. Regional snobery works the same in all directions, just as racial and ethnic sniping occurs.

Human nature dictates that we see ourselves, our families, our cities our states our regions our countries, as superior.

How do you think a bunch of Texans talk about NY’ers. “You know, those boys up in NYC, sure know how to dress! Got nice duds, they do.”

“Yep, and I really like their football team too. But I hope they come in second place!” (Laughter, snorting, slaps on the back)

One of the things I dislike about Cruz’s campaign is that he started this pretty nasty divisive conversation pitting Americans against each other. I don’t want us to nominate a “President of The South”. In order to actually, you know, win the election and be able to do anything, the candidate has to be broadly appealing enough to win. I’d prefer someone who is more demonstrably able to at least bring everyone to the table and hear everyone out.

That doesn’t mean that everyone at the table gets something, but dismissing “New York values” makes it seem like if he’s elected, Ted Cruz isn’t going to give a damn about anyone in any city in America. This hurts his electability on the national level so badly I don’t even know why he’s in contention for the nomination anymore, to be honest. I think he really shot himself in the foot with these comments and has picked a fight that voters aren’t going to forget about in November.

Personal insults by Cruz supporters are just losing him votes. But if that makes you feel good, keep it up. You are only harming your candidate. Your choice. Makes me very happy.
