SuperPACs that have no communication with Cruz.

OTOH, Trump donated to Democrats for 20 years. Why? Apparently it was the only way he could do business.

But we can trust this billionaire who has taken both sides of every issue. Why? Because this time we can trust him.

You are thinking about the old rules. There are new rules now:

“The decisions-which came in response to a request from two Democratic super PACs, including one with close ties to Senate Minority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) - further erode the boundary between campaigns and their independent allies at a time when they are already engaged in unprecedented collaboration.

Federal candidates are still not permitted to explicitly ask a donor to give more than $5,000 to a super PAC. But the latest decision means that an elected official or candidate can meet privately with just one wealthy donor and one super PAC operative to discuss fundraising for the group, said Ellen Weintraub, one of two Democrats on the six-member panel who opposed loosening the rules.”
