IRONY ALERT: Ted Cruz Heckled in the Bronx...For Being Anti-Hispanic?!
The next primary on the docket? New York. This means the candidates are heading to the Big Apple. Ted Cruz took a tip to the Bronx (aka the Boogie Down), where he heckled just for simply being there. What he was heckled for specifically? Yeah, it's a riot:
But wait, it gets better...
Protesters call Cruz a "right wing bigot," says he's not welcome in this neighborhood https://t.co/SXj4j3tbNy— Kaitlyn Schallhorn (@Kaitlyn Schallhorn) 1459962828.0
“Ted Cruz has no business being in the Bronx,” one man shouted as the GOP presidential candidate met with supporters at the back of a Cuban restaurant Wednesday. “This is an immigrant community. We deal with climate change every single day, and he wants to say it doesn’t exist. We are one of the poorest congressional in the country, and to receive this right-wing bigot is an insult to our whole community.”

Oh New York. Thanks for this.
So, three things...
1. LOL at that protester who said "we deal with climate change every day." First of all, no one gives a crap about man-made global warming/climate change anymore. Mostly because, you know, it's a HOAX. Does this guy really expect us to believe he isn't there because the Democrat Party handed him a script? Maybe a few bucks to spew this utter nonsense?
2. Ted Cruz IS hispanic. To say "he's not welcome here in this community of immigrants," made me pee my pants a little. If you've ever listened to any of the candidates speak for longer than ten minutes, here's what you'd know about them: Donald Trump is rich. Ted Cruz's father is from Cuba. John Kasich's father was a mailman. Ted Cruz's father being from Cuba, having immigrated here, means Ted Cruz understands the whole immigration dealio. Also, no one is against LEGAL immigration. Dolts.
3. To use an oft used Cruz phrase, I would also note that none of these glowing jewels bothered to have a conversation with Cruz. Which, let's be honest, we can understand. If you're a moron, Cruz will make you look like a moron. If you're intent on screaming, Cruz will make you look like a moron. If you actually have a conversation to talk about the issues rather than yell? Well, Cruz has never turned down an opportunity to engage with hecklers or activists before. If you're cool about it, willing to listen, he might change your mind. If you insist on yelling? He'll make you look like a...?
