New York Rep. Peter King had some sharp words for Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Thursday, in the wake of the Texas senator's attempt to criticize Donald Trump.
Cruz, who had been playing nice with Trump for much of the campaign, recently attempted to disparage the real estate mogul by accusing him of possessing "New York values." The attack came after Trump raised questions over the Canadian-born Cruz's ability to serve as president.
Trump "may shift in his new rallies to playing 'New York New York,' because you know Donald comes from New York and he embodies New York values," Cruz said Tuesday on "The Howie Carr Show" on Boston-based WRKO.
King, a Republican, had a pointed response for Cruz.
"Memo to Ted Cruz: New York Values are the heroes of 9/11; the cops who fight terror; and the people you ask for campaign donations. Go back under a rock," King said in a statement to CNN Thursday.
Trump has also cited 9/11 as an example of why "New York values" are something to be proud of, rather than a turn-off for voters.
"New York is an amazing place with amazing people," Trump said on Bloomberg's "With All Due Respect." "We took a big hit with the World Trade Center -- worst thing ever, worst attack ever in the United States, worse than Pearl Harbor because they attacked civilians, they attacked people having breakfast and frankly if you would've been there and if you would've lived through that like I did with New York people -- the way they handled that attack was one of the most incredible things that anybody has ever seen."

It’s a liberal state, wtf is king talking about. Like I said they let hitlary carpetbag when they should have thrown her cellulite fat ass out.
And voting for those from Texas for example has brought us the epic colossal disasters called LBJ, and two Bushes.
That comment by Cruz was incredibly dumb.
Trying to copy Trump’s brashness is only going to backfire.
Plus, going to university among the elite in the northeast part of the country doesn’t match with his rhetoric.
I like Cruz, but that one-liner was NOT GOOD for his candidacy.
Peter King should flop back to the bathhouse.
And the answer is no.
Now wait a minute, I wouldn’t mind LBJ as hitlary’s running mate if the rumors about him and kennedy were true.
And now they have yet a 3rd Bush running!!

When Ted Cruz refers to “New York Values”, he is referring to the State’s OVERALL political leanings as a whole.
I don’t think he is referring to true conservatives like myself who live in this state.
As for LBJ and the two Bushes, well, the entire country voted for them, not merely Texans.
I didn’t like Ted’s remark either but Peter King - that pro-IRA jackass - needs to shut it.
That was a knee slapper! Is that an original thought or did you copy it from the Cruz website?
You oughtta turn that graphic into a herd of RINOs!
RE: I didn’t like Ted’s remark either
I’m a New Yorker and I don;t take offense like Peter King does.
He’s referring to MOST New Yorkers, who are definitely liberal. The Dems outnumber the rest 3 to 1.
I have no idea what Rafael is talking about. NY values?
NY has millions of good folks. Like Trump for instance and the tens of thousands involved in the biggest most brutal terrorist attack on America.
Another good event to have.
True! Texas gave us Rick Perry and Anne Richards. Seems to me no state has a patch on bad pols.
One who also can’t keep his mouth shut.
Cruz is referring to NY liberalism...& don’t worry Peter, no one’s going to join you under your rock...
That’s the problem. Every single state is packed with corrupt professional lawyers turned politician.
So bad it’s put the entire country in steep decline in every direction.
Ted managed to insult me with that remark. And considering his elite education, he’s should be throwing stones. Trump may - and I say may - bring NYS into the red column.
Which is why we are seeing the whole Establishment being blown up!
