Update: Cruz Did In Fact Disclose the Goldman Sachs Loan

I’m glad. Who could know me and think I wanted a Tea Party leader to crash-and-burn? This is called ‘vetting’.

I don’t know a thing about the kind of loan he had, but sphinx wrote ...

‘Per a Cruz video clip, it was a loan against his own brokerage account at Goldman Sachs. So: a loan against his own assets, not a loan from Goldman Sachs.’

Those are the kind of posts I respect. Well done, sphinx.

Now the only problem is perception — a misfiling or effort to hide how rich he was? I dunno if there in fact was a filing error and how democrats could use it. Many Cruz critics wonder of course. The vetting continues.

I don't think it was to "hide how rich he was" necessarily, but it probably was designed to avoid revealing to the public too soon that his spiel about raiding his savings funds wasn't true (in fact, Cruz's networth and savings increased the whole way through). Listing them in financial disclosures allows him to hide their purpose as well, as they're just listed as liabilities, not as part of his campaign.
