trumps emotional arrow was aimed at the wrong target and he knows it and most of the rest of it KNOW THAT

the NYC state of mind...as exemplified by Billy DI Blasio,,,,was the TARGET of Ted Cruzes comment

the SMELL in NYC....on 911 had nothing to do with the COMMENT

it was used to trigger emotional reactions and gain points.

Time WILL tell who hear WHAT...I suspect

the independents weren’t won over by that TACTIC

There was no need for Cruz to disrespect the casualties from the 9/11 attacks. Teddy would probably feel differently if it happened in Toronto.

In evoking 9/11 images, Trump tried and — given a lot of posts on this site — succeeded in conflating two different types of values:

1) Brave, heroic, self-sacrificing first-responders running into burning buildings. Those are the values Trump was talking about.

2) That same brave, heroic, self-sacrificing first-responder voting to send Hillary Clinton and Chuck Schumer to the Senate. Those are the values Cruz was talking about.

EXACTLY. Donald Trump is a phony, and tried to TWIST THE TRUTH.

NYC is the abortion capital of the country!!!!

If it weren’t for NYC voters, Cuomo would not be governor, because upstate NY voted for conservative Republican Astorino.

Thanks to Cuomo, we have same-sex “marriage.”

Plus our the entire state has extreme restrictions on our 2nd amendment rights.

These are the kinds of things Sen. Cruz was referring to, and as you say, Trump KNOWS IT!
