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

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 is not in this to smack down any estabblishment; for crap sake, he is the establishment!

Cruz will have nothing to do with this mendacious miscreant.

Amen. Trump has reminded us, once again, about the steel and greatness of the American spirit....portrayed beautifully in so many of the 9/11 aftermath photos.

New Yorkers....and their resilient nature, perfectly displayed the roll-up-our-sleeves attitude and values, of New York, and this country....when faced with adversity or tragedy.

Good for Trump. We need to be reminded of the mettle that makes us great.

Noot is political trash just like Trump.

Noot saved PBS

Noot pushed conservative rep Bob Dornan out of office by funding the campaign of liberal Democrat Loretta Sanchez.

Noot has raped the people foolish enough to support him daily when he was in office.

You aren’t even honest enough to be ashamed of what Trump is doing.

Trump is not falling or failing. He is the likely nominee.

If Trump had insulted Texas or Canada, Cruz would have defended where he came from. Everyone expects a person to at a minimum defend the place they grew up, etc.

It is like people who move away from their where they grew up for various reasons. They will likely still root for the football team they grew up watching and be very proud of where they came from. It is very understandable why Trump would want to defend the state of New York in general. That is where he grew up. Now if Cruz had attacked the NYC media or NY politicians that would have been a different story. The NYC liberal media and New York politicians hate Trump and will be endorsing and voting for Hillary Clinton in the general election.

You have no shame either.

We have to assume that you endorse Trump’s mendacity.

Hey noob, Trump is what is failing. That is what this is all about.

He’s using 9-11 photos shamefully to try to save his worthless a$$.

So what? I thought it was none of my business then, and think the same way, now.

Then why are you making it your business now?

Disagree. Newt would crush the liberal point of view anytime he had the microphone.

Not a big deal. Newt has those that support him and it is what it is. Many admire his tenacity in winning back the House and his Contract with America.

He may not be Trumps VP, but some of us think he would be an excellent choice.

That’s his stock-in-trade.

Then thanks for clearing that up. Donalds wife Ivana was confronting his mistress that showed up on the ski slopes where Donald and his wife Ivana were on a ski holiday. Right?

And who the heck is Jimmah?

You know absolutely nothing about Noot.

He has spent his career demolishing conservatives like Dornan, and saving garbage like NPR and UN funding.
