CHARLESTON – New York Democrats sided with Donald Trump in their reaction to U.S. Senator Ted Cruz' criticism of "New York Values" at the GOP Presidential debate Thursday night. Trump said Cruz had insulted New Yorkers that had survived the World Trade Center attack on 9-11, and that he owed New Yorkers an apology.
Cruz said he "apologized" for how liberal politics have negatively affected various groups of New Yorkers, saying, "Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and Andrew Cuomo and Bill de Blasio have all demanded an apology, and I'm happy to apologize," he told reporters. "I apologize to the millions of New Yorkers who have been let down by the liberal politicians in that state."
"I believe 2016 is going to be an election like 1980, and help is on the way…" Cruz said.
