Ted Cruz on ‘New York Values’ is gross, ignorant, cultural triangulation. He’s class signaling and its unseemly in a would-be leader of this land. That leader should never denigrate one of his would-be constituents over another.

NYC is the ultimate American city. There are more people here than LA and Chicago combined. The NYPD is larger than many standing armies. NYC has faced and conquered scale larger than many planners will ever imagine. Washington was inaugurated here. The Federalist was born here.

Americans were made here. My great grandfather registered to fight his father’s countrymen. My grandfather fought against those same former brethren because he had become an American in heart and mind.

Flawed, imperfect, brash and bold. It’s not perfect and got some important things wrong, but it, like our nation, is working to greater visions of the possible versus resigning to the muck of the expectable. I❤️🗽
