Exactly, Trump defined what his New York Values are in this clip. Cruz even referenced this clip in the debate - I just hadn’t watched the interview before so I didn’t know what he was referencing. However, as soon as this clip makes the rounds in Iowa - Trump is done.

I'm saying a person has a right to mature and change their opinions. This wasn't yesterday, it was 16 years ago. Cruz people are really reaching with this.

Trump's own words - Manhatten has different values.

I value life and marriage.

He was saying it should be legal for a doctor to deliver a baby, except for the head, and stick scissors in his skull to kill him.

The man was in his fifties when he thought this.

It's appalling. No, pro-life people don't think he's magically changed.

Using a video clip from last century to attack Donald Trump is something the establishment tried back in August. It’s a rehash trying to discredit a man who answered all these questions then, and most of us, including many Ted Cruz supporters(and Ted himself) accepted that Trump has changed.
***************************************************************************
Has he changed? Really, has he changed? Will he change again upon attaining office? He is malleable, after all. And you said it was a video clip from the last century—A TIME WHEN TRUMP WAS 53 YEARS OLD-—NOT A SPRING CHICKEN by any means.

Heard some nonsense on Hannity tonight that if we went back 17 years Cruz would have been in high school. I didn’t know Cruz was still in high school at age 28.

It’s actually when Cruz joined the Bush Administration. So I guess he had Bush values. And Cruz recruited John Roberts to the Bush team who ultimately gave us Obamacare.

Bush administration

Cruz joined the George W. Bush presidential campaign in 1999 as a domestic policy adviser on immigration. And Cruz recruited future Chief Justice John Roberts and noted attorney Mike Carvin to the Bush legal team.

So Donald Trump used to embrace New York values, but he doesn’t now.

Cruz may hate New York Values but he sure loves New York money.

What's the New York money total now? $224K?

Once Cruz runs this clip as an ad in Iowa, Trump might as well drop out of the Iowa Caucus race

I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh at you, but man that's funny.

Look, I've been where you are. You've got a candidate who is obviously in a bad spot and you're trying to make the best of it. It isn't going to work. Ted's poll numbers are going to continue to fall. He hasn't helped himself here at all. He has shown himself to be a divider rather than a uniter. Nobody gives a crap about whether or not he 'knew' about New York blah blah blah.

Ted Cruz wrote off voters and insulted them. Donald Trump is trying to win voters everywhere. He's trying to unite people and he's using conservative ideas to do it. For that, he gets raked over the coals by people like you, but I guess that's politics. It ain't beanbag as they say.

Breaking news from 1999? It’s looking pretty desperate for Team Cruz if you have to spam FR like this.

Until the Trump people point out a date and proclaim the Cruz people misleading and liars.
********************************************************************************
Has senility and dementia set in on Trump? He can’t remember that he SPECIFICALLY SAID HE HAD NEW YORK VALUES (AFTER DEFINING THEM BY EXAMPLES) and HE ALSO SAID HE WOULD HAVE SPECIFICALLY HAD DIFFERENT (IOWA) VALUES. Trump actually used Iowa as a place with values different than New York values.

One mill from Goldman Sachs alone, not counting donations from Trump.

This is the Cruz campaign’s response to the BS birther argument... I get it, but it comes from the same place of desperation and like the birther argument I will ignore it.


Yep. Cruz gets hit with the BC jab and the response is: Trump is a NY Liberal. Nener, nener, nerner.

Surprisingly, Senator Principled Conservative is not interested in debating the issues at all. His response to the BC jabs puts the debate right in the gutter. Can’t say I am surprised.

It seems to me that one of the strong selling points for Cruz was that he was a good Christian man, high morals and all.

None the less I’ve had Cruz folks reference Trump’s Hitler like tendencies and his supporters similarity to Hitler’s supporters.

I had one guy tell me Trump was like the male on male rapist in Deliverance, and that I and the rest of Trump’s supporters had been violated by him.

I have had his supporters tell me I’m not a Conservative or a Christian, because I support Trump.

One guy this very day told me to stop licking, as in Trump’s ass.

Now here you are using a video that is 17 years old as proof of what Trump is.

Trump has changed a lot over the years. He isn’t pushing a platform that includes his old views. He started changing on abortion and has come a long long way on the issue.

I was raised a Christian. I was raised to gauge a man fairly, and if he had changed to be glad he had, and not go way back in his life to try to destroy his character now.

It seems to me that you folks fall way short of the Christian ethic time after time after time.

Why should I support a man whose supporters reflect nothing of the character they say he has?

$11 million in Pac money.

Mercer’s Pac Money is Cruz money, don’t try and deflect on that.

I believe Cruz is 45 years old right now.

27 years? Maybe...

I hadn’t known that about Cruz bringing Roberts on board.

Wonderful.

Trump is a family man, a successful businessman, a philanthropist and not the liberal pig you guys are trying to paint him as.

Trump has declared bankruptcy multiple times, so that he would not have to pay back other people's money, he has attempted to use eminent domain to take someone else' property so he could add a few bucks to his billions, he had divorced multiple times after having affairs, he builds casinos with strip joints in them, he brags about quid pro quo with corrupt politicians, he is pro gay, he doesn't want to repeal Obama care just tweak it and he likes big government solutions. You may call that conservative, but that is not conservative by any definition that I recognize.

Actually, it’s a tad more than $224k. Cruzman Sachs has $11 million from his “NY values” hedge fund sugar daddy alone but who’s counting.

The ads just write themselves. Cruz is about to carpet bombed with negative ads. Bye bye, Teddy.
