Yeah, I live in largely Hispanic neighborhood in the city, raised here. I don’t know how NYers feel but I rather regard anyone from the area as a Chicagoan, makes no matter to me if you’re passed the city limits.
I do not feel insulted when people attack “Chicago politics” aka C(r)ook county politics which extend across most of suburbs in Cook.
Only thing I don’t like is when people go on about certain Black politicos like Obama or Jesse Jackson as products of Chicago when they are carpetbagging imports from other places. We have plenty of native scum, but Obama’s are not an indigenous species.
I do not understand why a conservative NYer would be offended by Cruz’s remark about NY values or why anyone would think they had diddly squat to do with criticizing Jews. Such a ridiculous accusation I would expect only from lib morons. Cruz was criticizing GD liberal perversion and idiocy and everyone should damn well be aware of tat.
It’s not as if the state is in play, it’s very heavily rat and anyone who thinks Trump could even come close to carrying it is deluding themselves, he’d do as well as Romney did in MA.
NY values, Hollyweird values, Chicago politics, these are things that deserve criticism and things that are criticized by plenty of decent people that live in those places. Any freeper who says otherwise is just agreeing with Trump for the sake of agreeing with Trump.
Look, the vast majority of Chicagoans I know, do NOT consider BURBIES to be Chicagoans. LOL...you're an outlier. :-)
You don't understand New Yorkers at all, but that's understandable. But even upstaters were and still ARE POed at Ted for his remarks and phony non-apology.
