Its one thing for candidates to call each other names, or even accuse the other of lying, but when without evidence you accuse someone of “Tax Fraud” , a Felony, you are a Duplicitous, evil person.

There is not a dime’s worth of difference between the Mafia and the US Government.
They are both against any idea unless they get a piece of the action.

Does Ted still beat his wife?

I have no reason to believe he ever did, but it's a serious issue and deserves a thorough investigation.

But here's the thing. Cruz sucked up to Trump for six months. Wouldn't attack him, was perfectly happy to be a chump. Now that he's getting his ass handed to him, he decides to go negative.

So what does that tell you? It shows what an opportunist Cruz is. It shows that he is not a leader; for a leader would have been attacking Trump to from the get-go and selling his own ideas and plans. No, Cruz simply recognizes that Trump's supporters will swim through an asphalt parking lot to vote for him.

I meant transactions in the sense of expenses, etc. But it’s a moot point. Cruz has done this crap all along, puts out some rumor on Trump and tries to make it stick. It’s beyond shameful and this guy wants to be President?

What’s he going to do? float a rumor that Putin’s gay?

“Does Cruz really think Trump would report financial transactions with the mob?”

He knows it is a smear. Typical tactics of the slip and fall lawyers; throw anything against the wall for the jury in hopes that something sticks.

I thought that Cruz was supposed to show the nation the face of God, according to his wife.

It seems as though Ronald Reagan's "Eleventh Commandment" - "Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican." - is dead and buried.

The reason George was so stunned is because he probably couldn’t believe such a gobsmackingly stupid thing could roll out of his mouth. LOL

Why yes, of course, I make sure to list my mob connections as deductions on my tax returns...doesn’t everyone?

This, from supposedly the smartest man in the Senate. LMAO

You honestly cannot make this crap up.

Folks - this is unsubstantiated BS.

But that's why we have primaries. To get all this stuff out. To prepare the candidate for the general election rough and tumble. To see how they perform under pressure. this is the big leagues.

You ALL know that Hillary, the DNC, the MSM, and every liberal special interest group will go after Trump with these and MORE same type assertions.

Its' why everyone is incredulous that Bernie isn't going after Hillary with the same type things. he simply doesn't want to win.

Trump simply needs to release his tax returns. I know that stinks. but this is politics. Hillary and company will ROAST trump with this and MORE. Trump has gotten away with all his anti PC stuff to date - because he is running in a REPUBLICAN election and we are all sick to death of all the PC BS!

But 50% of America and ALL the Liberals are NOT.

If Trump is serious, and wants to be President - he better come through. It is a simple fact. Sorry, but it is.

Mafia? Nah.

It’s more probably ‘contributions’ to far-left orginizations and legislators — you know, the ones every honest businessman has to pay off to run an honest business.

Yeah, it’s all those 1099’s issued to Gino’s Collection Agency that’s the tipoff. /s

On what line of the tax return do you put “mafia ties” exactly?

Don’t get me wrong, Trump is dealing with subcontractors in construction and in order to build things, some of those subs likely have mafia ties. It just is what it is.

But to glean that info from tax returns? Good luck.

Ted you need to get rid of Beck and stop this, as well as being cozy now with the establishment Rubio, because trust me Rubio and the establishment will stab you in the back when they do not need you.
