Donald Trump‘s tweetstorm against Ted Cruz today culminated in him posting a photo of the rubble after the 9/11 attack:


Is this the New York that Ted Cruz is talking about & demeaning? pic.twitter.com/rYGX9vazku

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016

And boy, did a lot of people have a problem with that:

I didn't like @tedcruz's "New York values" trope. But this vulgar exploitation of 9/11 by @realDonaldTrump is worse. https://t.co/TLYvEJQ0Qe

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) January 16, 2016

No, this is the New York of a heroism & sacrifice that @realDonaldTrump has never demonstrated or even appreciated. https://t.co/TLYvEJQ0Qe

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) January 16, 2016

Even Giuliani was better than this. Although just barely. https://t.co/4Qjer4qxj8

@realDonaldTrump ANYONE TO DUMB TO BELIEVE TED CRUZ WAS TALKING ABOUT THE P8C ABOVE AND NOT ABOUT NY'S LIBERALS THEN YOUR TOO DUMB TO VOTE.

@realDonaldTrump @ArmorCavSpin No it's the one that elected Bloomberg, Cuomo and DeBlasio. The leftist, asshat totalitarian NY.

Trump knows Cruz respects first responders. The post was unnecessary but not fatal.

Frankly I look forward to these two burying the hatchet and teaming up to deliver a smackdown on the establishment.

It took a while for some people to get it. But now they're all getting it.

“Trump was a regeristered Democrat in 2001.”

Yes. With Alinskyite tactics, Trump comfortably attacks Cruz from the left.

This isn't the kind of emotional stability we need in a president.

Yes. That was at the top of the mountain when Marla confronted his wife Ivana.

They've been coming after our years now and long before Trump stepped foot out of the shadow of his lair.....he's ready for what they throw and he will respond at his choosing and time...as well as not at all.

There's a reason for the boots ya know!...

No, not really. Okay, you can go back under your rock now.

All those New Yorkers are AGAINST Trump. Here is someone who is a fan of Trumps.

Newt Gingrich told Breitbart News that the country is in rebellion against the coastal power centers and that Donald Trump might be the candidate who can kick down the doors of the establishment.

Former House speaker Gingrich weighed in on Trumps rise.

' I think he represents a different era in the same conservative movement, Gingrich said. The system has become so incompetent and outrageously bureaucratic. The centers of power are so, so in New York, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles, that the whole rest of the country is in rebellion. And people are looking for somebody who can kick down the doors.

It is a very deep, very real movement, ' he said.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/12/11/exclusive-newt-gingrich-country-rebellion-trump-can-kick-doors/

And the powerful New York Media that Newt is talking about HATES Trump and New Yorkers are not the liberal media.

absolutely. Rock Solid....ahahaha!

he’s too self absorbed to realize how way off the wall he actually shows himself to be.

letting down the tough show....and coming out with this sort of junk...has alerted a vast array....of AMERICANS...to who he is.

well theres always the real estate development gig...

Trump is nothing but a liberal puke...

How could you question his patriotism?

It's not like he's Lonesome Rhodes.

((((.....”Of course they didn’t like it. It’s a reminder how fast the nation has forgotten”....))))))

No...it’s because they remember all to well 9/11....NYC did not handle this crisis alone.....thousands and thousands of people from across the nation as well as the world went to the city to help....and in doing so it became our city as well....it was “OUR” country that was attacked...make no mistake about that.

Trump needs to just knock it off!

This may be the peak many have been expecting in his poll numbers?

This is Trump's Howard Dean scream.

Newt Gingrich? lol!

Newt Gingrich is as fraudulent as Trump. Gingrich supported TARP and has said he thinks No Child Left Behind wasn't big enough and said he wouldn’t repeal ObamaCare.

Trump is a lifelong liberal, has a record as such and nothing Newt Gingrich can or will say can change that.

Long ago it was suggested that Trump was in this so Hillary could win it; the picture you posted is worth 1,000 words [in that regard].
