Ted Cruz: Immigrant-Loving Socialist NYC Mayor Bill De Blasio Will Be Finished Once I’m President [AUDIO]

The Hill reports:

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Wednesday released a new radio ad attacking New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio ahead of the Empire State’s April 19 primary.

The 60-second ad, titled “Nerve,” starts by referring to comments made by de Blasio attacking the Texas senator. “I think Ted Cruz is out of touch with New York State and New York City,” the ad quotes de Blasio saying.

“He’s got a lot of nerve,” the ad says in response. “De Blasio’s socialist policies are tearing this city apart.”

The ad says that murder in the city is up nearly 10 percent and cops are treated “like criminals.” It also accuses the mayor of making New York a “sanctuary city, rolling out the red carpet for illegals.”

“Now he’s meddling in the Republican primary, campaigning against Cruz, because when Cruz is president, de Blasio is done,” the ad says.

When Cruz is president, there will be no more sanctuary cities or “soft-on-terror policies,” it continues. It also says Cruz will “instruct the Justice Department to hold corrupt politicians accountable.”
