I do not care what the business law is, it was acknowledged on this site that donnie was able to include millions of his personal debt into the so called corp. bankruptcies. He gets it both ways, us little people do not.

i got to tell you there is nothing pure about Cruz supporters... It seems daily they crowd around every juicy sex story about Trump they can find. And if the story is not juicy enough, why is plain amazing how the stories get juicier.. Personally I do not get interested in other people's sex lives...

You mean like this one? It has sex and harassment.

It's impossible to avoid tripping over scandalous information about Trump.

Having Trump as the Republican nominee would be a nightmare of campaign ads that would make Hillary look saintly and honest.

Trump supporters really don’t know who they are supporting.

Mr. Trump claims to be strong on illegal immigration, but here’s the REAL DONALD TRUMP:

“We are not talking about positions he has taken years ago before he became a Republican. In 2013, conservatives were fighting for dear life to oppose open borders, while Trump was not only supporting the Dream Act, but echoing the liberal politically correct talking points behind it. In August of 2013, he reportedly told a group of illegal aliens, “You have convinced me” of the need to pass the Dream Act.”

Cruz has two Ivy league degrees including a law degree from Harvard.....but seems to have a sloppy approach to his private life. (1) Didn/t tell Texas voters and the FEC about Wall Street bank loans; (2) didn/t know he was a dual Canadian citizen until the Dallas Morning News exposed him; (3) lying about not having health insurance. Does the Harvard lawyer pay attention to anything?

BACKSTORY Cruz/s Senate election fairy tale has become legendary......portraying himself as a scrappy populist putting everything on the line to overcome a wealthy establishment opponent.

He was whining in the media, telling trusting Texans that he, and his faithful little wife (a $700,000 globalist lawyer employed by G/S), were forced to liquidate their entire family savings (of slightly more than $1 million) to fuel a come-from-behind win in the Republican primary.

NOW TRUSTING TEXANS LEARN Cruz did not liquidate family assets.....he got his hands on over a million dollars from his hefty margin accounts at G/S and Citibank......and did not disclose this on FEC reports (to keep it a secret from trusting Texans).

Cruz did not disclose loans on FEC reports (required by law) b/c Texans would have discovered he was not the aw-shucks rube he pretended to be. He continued the rube act in order to milk votes from trusting Texans.

At the same time, he also did not disclose he was a dual Canadian citizen......the Harvard-educated lawyer w/ two Ivy League degrees said he didn't know.

====================================================

NOTE Mrs Cruz is on hiatus from G/S.....is she getting paid by the Cruz campaign?

===============================================

UT, OH Cruz told Levin he used the Wall Street loans for the campaign/s TV ads......but these loans have never been reported as campaign related. Cruz does not need the FEC/s permission to fully disclose the info. What is he hiding?

EXHIBIT ONE <><> In January 2016, the New York Times reported that Cruz and his wife had taken out low-interest loans from Goldman Sachs (her employer) and Citibank, and failed to report the nearly $1 million in loans on Federal Election Commission disclosure statements as required by law.[97] Cruz disclosed the loans on his Senate financial disclosure forms in July 2012, but not on the Federal Election Commission form.[98] The loans were largely repaid by later campaign fundraising.....even though Cruz/s spox recently said no donor paid off the loans. A spokesperson for Cruz said his failure to report the loans to the FEC was "inadvertent" and said he would be filing supplementary paperwork.[97] (hat tip WIKI)

EXHIBIT TWO <><> During his 2012 Senate campaign, Time magazine reported on a potential violation of ethics rules; Senate candidate Cruz failed to publicly disclose his financial relationship with Caribbean Equity Partners Investment Holdings. Typically, Cruz called his failure to disclose these connections an "inadvertent" omission.[96] (hat tip WIKI)

"....Donald Trump deployed all his forces and political connections to try to take away the home of a then-elderly widow, Vera Coking, where she had lived for decades. Corking's lawyers charged that when she resisted, his construction crews continually vandalized her house. Trump exercised his pull with the government to use eminent domain to try to evict her and take over her house. Vera fought back in the truest American tradition and the Superior Court of New Jersey ruled against Trump and his friends in the government agency that tried to take the house from Vera. She later called Trump "a maggot, a cockroach and crumb". Trump has subsequently fictionalized this true blight on his record by telling a lie about what had transpired that, of course, burnished his own shameful record." ........ More

Cruz was born in Canada, therefore, HE WAS Canadian by birth. Cruz gave up his Canadian citizenship just over a year ago. His mother is American and Cruz is American via his Mother's blood. BUt CRUZ WAS BORN IN CANADA? PERIOD!

Sun, this is the Freeper you are allying yourself with? OK.

You sure got that one down pat, Liz. Let me know when you’re tired of shooting fish in a barrel.

Please remember — these are our FRiends. They are hurting. Even if they win Iowa, they are supporting one excellent conservative underdog who will march barefoot from state to state on political broken glass. If Cruz wins at this point — more power to him!

Trump and Cruz are big boys. Unless a new shocker comes up our current research and debates fade in importance each day here-on-out. They are in the driver seat now.

I promised to focus less on the primary.

But King — what a smear!

And the timing?

Suspicious.

Why did King wait so long to ‘come out’ and villify Jerry Falwell Jr?

No weepy ‘cause you’re wrong.

Here are the facts:

Canada claimed him but Ted Cruz was an American citizen at birth.

Just because Ted Cruz politely (and officially) said, “no thanks” to Canada’s law, it in no way changes Cruz’s legal status and eligibility to run for President of the United States.

Show me a Canadian passport that Cruz was using to travel overseas?

"so long" - what has it been 3 days?

The better question to raise, is:

Why did Falwell Jr. wait a week between his "Trump is like MLK, Jesus and my dad" rally and his endorsement of Trump?

Cruz was a dual national, technically owing allegiance to two countries, hence the phrase “dual national”.
