Cruz apologizes to New Yorkers–for their liberal politicians
Ted Cruz has apologized to New Yorkers, but not in a way that made them happy.
“Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, Bill de Blasio, and Andrew Cuomo have all demanded an apology, and I’m happy to apologize,” Cruz said. “I apologize to the millions of New Yorkers who have been let down by liberal politicians in that state.”
Speaking to reporters after a campaign event here on Friday in a brief press availability in which he took no follow-up questions, Cruz had been asked if he would apologize for the “New York values” jabs as New York City’s mayor, de Blasio, and New York’s governor, Cuomo, have called him in to do.
Cruz then reeled off a list of New York-specific policy complaints in the form of apologies, apologizing to New Yorkers for Cuomo’s fracking ban, to small businesses “driven out of New York City by crushing taxes and regulations,” to “all of the African-American children who Mayor de Blasio tried to throw out of their charter schools that were providing a lifeline to the American dream,” and “to all the cops and the firefighters and 9/11 heroes who had no choice but to stand and turn their backs on Mayor de Blasio because Mayor de Blasio over and over again stands with the looters and criminals rather than the brave men and women of blue.”
“I apologize to all the pro-life and pro-marriage and pro-Second Amendment New Yorkers who are told by Gov. Cuomo that they have no place in New York because that’s not who New Yorkers are,” Cruz said.

I doubt Wall Street was upset with Cruz’s comments.
fahvel January 16th, 2016 at 03:16
other than snide emptiness, does your comment have any meaning?
whatthe46 January 16th, 2016 at 03:36
nope!
rg9rts January 16th, 2016 at 05:12
there is more to New York than just Wall Street
JoseM4 January 16th, 2016 at 07:22
Agreed, he may have angered many (most?) New Yorkers but Wall St. is a different breed and that’s where most of his money comes from.

He spits in the faces of the New Yorkers who elected those political leaders and calls it an apology.
What an a$$…
StoneyCurtisll January 16th, 2016 at 00:16
Exactly~!

Yikes! More disgusting…These RepubliCons must see the way Cruz treated his employees. He treated them disrespectfully. Cruz has no moral character…USA was losing $1.5Bil because he shutdowned the government toward Obamacare. But he has no plan whatsoever after the shutdown. What a disgusting politician, GO BACK TO CANADA, DON’T DESTROY OUR COUNTRY!

Extra, extra! Canada has just announced that Canadians will now build and pay for a “WALL” on the US/Canadian Border…to keep Ted Cruz (R) OUT!

No right of return?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! you’ve got to find a meme for that!

There are legitimate questions about whether Ted Cruz is a “natural born” US citizen.
There are no questions about whether he is a US citizen.

Gotta love the Daily News.

Would it be too harsh if I called him a fuckstick?
fahvel January 16th, 2016 at 03:13
not at all – it might even be too moderate.
whatthe46 January 16th, 2016 at 03:37
NOT EVEN! sorry for the shouting.
fahvel January 16th, 2016 at 03:12
assuming that NYC is populated by New Yorkers and just a bunch of neophytes arrivistes ( how many New Yorkers have been born in NYC) who want to elitise Brooklyn and its environs, they should eat this piece of canadian bacon without mayo.

There’s this saying in Portuguese “Lost a great opportunity to keep his mouth shut”!

Hey Ted..
Go back to Canada where you were born.

I would not worry about Ted Cruz being elected. In 2008 there was a question about John McCain’s eligibility to run for President because he was born in the Panama Canal zone. The Senate passed a bill declaring John McCain a natural born citizen. Even Barack Obama voted yes for it. ( I guess there is a little decency in Obama after all). Ted Cruz will get no such favor from the US Senate. He has very few friends in the Senate especially after the procedural error that allowed a vote and got over 200 of Obama’s liberal judges sent to the bench and calling his majority leader a liar. Mitch McConnell has already said that the Senate would not wade into the debate over Cruz’s citizenship. It is beginning to look like Trump is going to be the nominee for the Republican party. This could very well set up an election between Trump and Sanders. That is like asking a man ” How do you want to die? Stabbed or shot your choice.

Let’s think about this, is Cruzifer a natural born from any of these countries:
USA?
Canada?
Cuba?
One thing for sure, he is a…
NATURAL BORN MONGREL!
