The only thing that will be remembered about the “debate” is Trump’s comeback with the 9/11 story. Then Cruz smirking and grinning at him as he told Cruz he had offended New Yorkers. Cruz seems to have forgotten that he was raised in Houston, Texas, the great bastion of liberalism in Texas, a town that has a radical lesbian mayor. I did like Cruz, and of course I’ll vote for him if he gets the nomination (though I don’t think it’s gonna happen), but his constant invoking Ronald Reagan as his great example in life, when Cruz was in grade school when Reagan was elected, and his grinning and self-righteous “I’m smarter than you are” attitude is a real put-off. There’s really nothing to like about his personality. He reminds of a fast-talking lawyer because that’s exactly what he is. And enough of the bluejeans and flannel shirts when he’s on the stump in Iowa. Put on a suit and look like a professional and not a phony trying to pander for votes.
Trump can be proud of his cring-worthy moment, waving the bloody shirt.
At least now everyone in IA and the south knows that he has New York values.
