When GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz said his rival Donald Trump represents “New York values” it was supposed to be an insult, even though he has stubbornly refused to admit why. When asked by Fox News host and native New Yorker Megyn Kelly what he meant by the remark on Tuesday, he laughed and said, “the rest of the country knows exactly what New York values are. I got to say, they’re not Iowa values and they’re not New Hampshire values.”
OK … but really though, what does that mean? It can’t mean that New York City and state are somehow more debauched or morally pliant than the rest of the country. For instance, the Empire State ranks in the bottom half of U.S. states when it comes to divorce rates, behind staunch red strongholds like Wyoming, Alabama and Arkansas. New York also recently led the nation in terms of reducing its crime rate.
But you said Cruz SAID he didn’t like New York people and you have no link to show that Just MSnbc headlines with no proof in their editorial story. Even they did not say point blank he said any such thing. Of course MSNBC wants Trump to win because they want Hillary in the Gen election, and they love trashing TRUE CONSERVATIVES.
This was said at the time that Cruz was not a conservative but had New York values Something Trump had referred to one time earlier, It was brought up during the first debate, and Trump was ready for that—he went off on Cruz and shifted over to 9-ll and how wonderful the New Yorkers were. Cruz applauded his remarks and knew he had one over on Cruz. They never gave Cruz time to answer they moved on. When Cruz was ask later, he said he never meant the people and thought that was that. Trump hung on to this. When Trump brought it up in NY people remembered it but not the specific details so trump fill in his own ideas true or not. He said C told him he hated NYers, and hCruz had “hate in his eyes”
