"Trump's play here is incredibly manipulative and nasty. Obviously, Cruz didn't mean to suggest that the behavior of New Yorkers on 9/11 was anything less than exemplary. Cruz insults DC values constantly, but nobody suggests that he's insulting the behavior of people from DC in their response to an attack on the Pentagon on 9/11. This is politically correct nonsense from The Donald. It isn't truth, it isn't brash, and it isn't honest."

I’ve got your New York values right here, pal with one word: Bloomberg.

Obviously, this does NOT include New Yorkers who have done real work...such as the police, firefighters, etc.

But everyone understands that the values in New York City ... focus around money and the media

Ted, why didn't you just say "da Joos" and make it clearer?

Yeah, those “NY values” seem to include communist mayors, scumbag politicians like Schumer, Gillibrand, Dean Skelos, Sheldon Silver.
And let’s not forget the fines if you don’t refer to a tranny by its preferred sexual pronoun.
And sanctuary city NYC.
And the “S.A.F.E. Act”.

“Because He’s Right, And Even New Yorkers Know It.”

And that hole just keeps getting deeper.

What then are America values, when the world looks the United States, and the people who have voted for Obama not once, but twice?

I think it will hurt Cruz not because of the birther dust-up, Cruz showed his nastier side. We’ve already seen Trump’s nastier side but it’s new with Cruz, he’s played the nice guy.

Like Psycho, wouldn’t hurt a fly.

Trump won’t carry NY in the general election. In fact, I’ll guess he’ll get about 70 EV’s total.

On September 11, 2001, the New York First Responders displayed AMERICAN VALUES in how the responded to the ISLAMIC Attack. In the same manner on September 11, 2012 the Benghazi CIA “Contractors” displayed the same AMERICAN VALUES in how they responded to the ISLAMIC attack.

On September 11, 2012, former New York US Senator Hillary Clinton displayed NEW YORK VALUES in how she responded to the Benghazi attack and, in essense, said the Benghazi attackers were provoked by a movie and, ALONG WITH ALL THE OBAMA REGIME, refused to help the CIA “Contractors” in any way. Hillary and her Obama regime compadres compounded their disdain for AMERICAN VALUES by lying to the families of the Benghazi HEROES.

-— A few initial points. First off, Trump’s play here is incredibly manipulative and nasty. -—

Well, yeah. He was HIDING behind the NYPD and NYFD. How disgusting is that?

I’m surprised more people aren’t expressing outrage that Trump is politicizing 9/11 for his own political gain.

Cruz was just on the Hannity radio show, and I didn’t think it was possible for him to further astonish me with brilliant thinking and rhetoric, but he just flat out amazed me!

Hannity asked him about that exchange with Trump, and Cruz noted that media types in NY were calling on him to apologize, so he said he would oblige them. What followed was incredible. Cruz then apologized about seven times to the people of NY on behalf of their leaders for the disastrous policies they have inflicted on the state and people of New York. Among other things, he apologized to the police officers who felt compelled to turn their backs on their socialist mayor who threw them under the bus. He also apologized to thousands of black children, and their parents, who DeBlazio has thrown out of their charter schools which they loved.

Cruz is going to be on the Hannity TV show tonight, and I hope he will reprise this amazing litany of “apologies”, as they so brilliantly highlighted the “New York” values to which he was referring in the debate.

I think it’s going to hurt Cruz too. Of course, the Cruzbots swear he can do no wrong. He’s God, don’t you know?

Hillary isn’t from New York. She was born in Chicago, and after college moved to Arkansas in 1974.

She carpetbagged her way into the US Senate with over 55% of the New York vote.
