"MANHATTAN, N.Y. — Republican presidential contender Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) harshly went after a New York City politician during a campaign event Wednesday — but it wasn’t fellow GOP hopeful Donald Trump.
Over the past 24 hours, Cruz and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio have excoriated one another in the wake of Tuesday’s Belgium terrorist attack that left more than 30 people dead and at least 270 others injured. Cruz’s call for the empowerment of law enforcement “to patrol and secure Muslim neighborhoods before they become radicalized” drew staunch consternation from de Blasio and other New York officials who have traded blows with the presidential hopeful since.And during a New York City event Wednesday afternoon, Cruz did not hold back in repeatedly castigating the city’s mayor."
