Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is facing an uphill battle in New York.
For example, an event in the Bronx garnered what the New York Post estimated to be just shy of 100 people on the same day that GOP frontrunner and New Yorker Donald Trump held a rally that brought in what Trump estimated to be 17,000.
On Tuesday afternoon there was an announcement for a Wednesday afternoon event at Bronx Lighthouse Charter School. Within hours the Cruz campaign released updated information for a Wednesday afternoon Bronx event that showed an entirely different Chinese-Dominican restaurant location.
News broke Wednesday that the Principal of the Bronx Charter School welcomed an opportunity to cancel the Cruz appearance upon receipt of a letter from a group of offended students. The student letter threatened a walkout and accused Cruz of “actively working to harm us, our community, and the people we love.”
Some 70 ministers associated with Cruz attended the newly announced Sabrosura restaurant event as well as around a dozen New York voters according to the New York Post. One man made his way into the packed restaurant and shortly thereafter began to yell at the Texas senator calling him a racist bigot, climate change denier, a right-wing bigot and “not welcome here.” As he and another man left the event he yelled, “this is an immigrant community Ted Cruz.”
Cruz told the crowd remaining, “we need positive solutions, not the kind of anger that that man…I will make the confession as I said that I have the classic second generation immigrant challenge.” Video of the protesters cut off as he said that. Cruz is the son of a Cuban immigrant to the United States.

Brooklyn?
Saw Bronx, read Brooklyn. Apologies to all offended.
“I will make the confession as I said that I have the classic second generation immigrant challenge”
See that’s a problem with Ted, circumlocutes and pontificates in his condescending way and what did he say? What does that mean?
An immigrant community should like Ted considering that he’s an immigrant.
The problem is that most of the Schools have been indoctrinated by the goosestepping left, so anyone that has a conservative view will get shut down!
The children at this school have been well trained to be slaves on the liberal plantation. And so they shall be.
Maybe it means Cruz's family history manifests the sort of character that differentiates him from the sort of antics associated with Woger [establishment insider] Stone whose history of dirty tricks goes all the way back to telling school kids the enemy is going to have school on Saturday - circa 1960?
"In 1996, Stone resigned from a post as a volunteer spokesman in Senator Bob Dole's campaign for president after The National Enquirer wrote that Stone had placed ads and pictures in racy swingers publications and a website seeking sexual partners for himself and his second wife, Nydia Bertrane Stone,"

What does that mean?
Not about Stone. Ted is completely misleading New York, stupid.
Roger Stone tell all the kids in the milk line that Nixon Cruz was going to hold school on Saturday, again, did he?
Kind'a castes a putrid light on the whole B.S. Trumpskyian "outsider" meme, don't it."I remember going through the cafeteria line and telling every kid that Nixon was in favor of school on Saturdays...It was my first political trick".[10]"
"By night, I'm trafficking in the black arts. Nixon's people were obsessed with intelligence."[3]
...
"Stone served as an advisor to the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump.[45] He left the campaign on August 8, 2015.[46]"

>>Not about Stone.
People whose “Outsider” (LOL) campaigns live in glass houses certainly shouldn’t throw them.
No kidding. Ted should be much smarter in New York then he is. He’s doubling down on dumb.
Why does he even bother with New York? Why doesn’t he pick some small rural state he can flood with resources from the rest of the country in order to gain another small pyrrhic victory which he can then crow about nauseatingly.
Just as many hell holes in Brooklyn, as there are in the Bronx.
Cruz isn't the one whose neck the GOPe's Cohn-Stone insider Albatross appears to be dangling around.

Ted hangs his own albatross doubling down on dumb with stupid comments. Talks about Trump’s checkbook when Trump wrote Ted a check.

Quite the collection of insiders for an “outsider”.
Same goes for Ted. If the well oiled republican establishment machine wasn’t in full roar for Ted in WI he would not have done so well.
>>the well oiled republican establishment machine
Awe boo hoo. Like Drumpf isn’t cozying up to the GOPe machine in NY.
When the ropes are fixed on the mountain by the professionals, and you’re there to reach the summit - do you climb up, or do you go back down to base camp and whimper because the mountain isn’t pure?
Cruz was the self professed “only principled candidate in the race”.
That too was a lie??
