Dean James AMERICA’S FREEDOM FIGHTERS–

After losing to Ted Cruz in Wisconsin, Donald Trump rolled into New York ready to rock and roll.

At one of his first rallies New Yorkers gave The Donald a warm welcome by chanting two words- “Lyin Ted!”

After the real estate mogul bounced onto the stage in Bethpage, N.Y., the crowd of 10,000 erupted in a chant of “Lyin’ Ted,” causing Trump to beam proudly from the podium. It showed plainly what a different audience New Yorkers are than Wisconsinites for this GOP primary season, Warner Todd Huston at Western Journalism reports.

At a campaign rally in Bethpage, NY just one day after losing Wisconsin to Ted Cruz, Donald Trump took an opportunity to blast ‘Lyin’ Ted’, saying he couldn’t draw 100 people at an event he held earlier in NY. Trump then reminded the crowd of Cruz’s “New York Values” comments.

Trump went straight for the jugular as he took the stage in Bethpage by reminding his New York audience of Cruz’s attempt to smear “New York values.”

“Do you remember, during the debate, when he started to lecture me on New York values, like we’re no good?” Trump told his receptive audience. “And I started to talk to him about the World Trade Center, the bravery — the incredible bravery of everybody, the police, our firemen, everybody.”

Trump praised the bravery and heroism of the first responders.

“The bravery that was shown was incredible,” Trump said. “We all lived through it, we all know people that died, and I’ve got this guy (Cruz) standing over there, looking at me, talking about New York values, with scorn on his face, with hatred of New York. So folks, I think you can forget about him.”

It was then that the crowd erupted in its chant of “Lyin’ Ted.”
