Citibank, in particular, played a major role in one of the Trump’s organization’s more notorious bankruptcies, when the Trump Plaza Hotel in Atlantic City was underwater and Trump owed over $550 million on it to various creditors, with Citibank at the head. In order to restructure his debt, Trump gave Citibank and other creditors a 49% ownership interest in the hotel.
As for Goldman Sachs, Trump is himself a shareholder in Goldman Sachs, which means he has a direct financial interest in its success. One would think that would make Trump even less enthusiastic about protecting me from Goldman Sachs (whatever that means) than Cruz would.
What a damn creepy azz freak show that video is!
Is that really put out by Cruz? It looks like a little snip from a scary movie.
You have to consider where this faux scandal orginated. Hint: a certain New York newspaper that is consistently creating fake scandals about Republicans (they had one every few weeks about W. Bush).And people believe it, believe it or not.
I don’t know what your problem is. Trump is not scared, like you. Sooner or later, you will have to admit that Cruz did not file FEC reports. That is illegal. And Cruz did not tell us about it. Does that hurt?
Big frickin’ deal! Lots of people get loans and pay them off.
Democrats owe IRS millions.
BS!
Why is there a big difference?
He is still beholden to money lenders.
At exactly what point did this forum become occupy wall street?
Bet he has visited Canada too.
By Trump’s own logic, Trump is owned by Goldman Sachs and Citibank.
You are one of the most stupid posters on this forum.
projection
I believe Cruz was born in Canada. Do have a contradictory source?
I think Laz has it ;-)
Trump has loans from citibank, goldman sachs thats enough to confirm they own him.
Cruz’s loans were not hidden. All the details are known.
Voters don’t know about Trump’s bank loans.
Note Trump companies had numerous bankruptcies.
You trumpsters brought up the bank issue now you whine when trump’s banking info is revealed. This is vetting deal with it
Well, let me try and explain it this way.
I like Trump. I really, really do.
I just have a concern about this new revelation about Trump's money connection to Goldman Sachs. I know it was a really sweet deal for Trump because Trump always negotiates really sweet deals. To do otherwise would be stupid, and as Trump says, he is not stupid. What voters don't know is what Trump got and what Goldman Sachs expects to get.
If Trump, who I like, doesn't get out front on this the Democrats will attack him and that will hurt him and the Republicans in November. I only mention the Goldman Sachs money connection to Trump at all because I'm doing Trump a favor.
Because I really like Trump.
Let the frantic scrambling begin on the Trump side. All we’ve heard for months is that Cruz is somehow “owned” by Goldman Sachs because his wife works there.
Never mind that it was TRUMP who supported TARP and TRUMP who said Goldman Sachs would be the best people to manage the bailout funds. Never mind that if loans = lenders are owned by the lender then Trump is owned by Deutsche Bank, Soros, Citibank, and Goldman Sachs. Never mind that Trump is a shareholder in Goldman Sachs!
popcorn anyone?
don’t like Trump’s tactics used against him...tough!
Their hypocrisy is blinding and they don’t even see it.
They worship a man. We are voting conservative principles.

There was so much fail in that post I had to give up correcting it after the first line. You win the “stop posting you’re drunk” award for the day.
The description from the RICO money laundering complaint filing was not "owned", it was "co-conspirator".
What you conveniently omit from your concoction is that Cruz did not file the required FEC reports. Lord only knows how upset you would be if that were Trump.
