RE: So, even though every person in the remaining 49 states KNEW he meant NYC, he pissed off an entire state who are New Yorkers.
From one New Yorker to another, and from one who lives NEAR the city ( Nassau County, Long Island ), I immediately KNEW what Cruz was referring to.
I was in upstate New York 2 days after Cruz used those words and those hard working folks out there UNDERSTOOD what Cruz was referring to.
If you’re a conservative, how could you not?
I did concede that after a while non-NYCers “got it”. I only said that the immediate gut reaction in hearing “New York” was not good for him. Sheesh.
