NEW YORK (WABC) --
Republican Presidential candidate Ted Cruz has issued an "apology" in response to the outrage by New Yorkers after his "New York values" comments during the GOP debate Thursday night.
"You're right, Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton and Andrew Cuomo and Bill de Blasio," have asked me to apologize," Cruz said. "I apologize to the millions of New Yorkers who've been let down by liberal politicians."
Cruz continued with a litany of "apologies" to jab at Governor Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio.
He apologized to those "denied jobs because Gov. Cuomo won't allow fracking."
He apologized to the New Yorkers who are "pro-life and pro-marriage and pro-second amendment who were told by Gov. Cuomo they have no place in New York."
He apologized to the "African American children who Mayor de Blasio tried to throw out of their charter schools that were providing a pipeline to American Dream."
He also apologized to New York law enforcement and first responders who de Blasio doesn't stand with and instead "stands with looters and criminals."
