The loan was secured.

You have got that right. I don’t know anyone who owns a commercial real estate business who doesn’t borrow money from banks. So what is the point here? It is nothing but a pointless smear trying to make excuses for Cruz who “forgot” to report campaign loans. If you can’t understand the difference between normal business practices and someone who has violated campaign laws then you are hopelessly biased.

You guys still don't get it. Ted Cruz hid the loan and did not report it, claiming an oversight. There is no way Cruz could forget about a million dollar loan. So why did he not report it? Because he wanted to hide the fact that Goldman Sachs was bankrolling his campaign effort.

But keep believing Ted is a conservative who has the country's best interest at heart.

Dude - how lost are you? Trump is for touch back. He's said it out loud the whole campaign.

Does it suck not to think for yourself?

The Goldman Sachs loan Cruz took out was a margin loan against his own investments and securities - hardly unsecured.

If you go back and read Trump’s books from when Ted was in Junior High School, you’ll see nothing has changed at the core.

It’s always been about the economy and making money.

Not living on other peoples taxes. (And his wife’s income from investment banks.)

Anyone who does not see the difference between a business loan and an unsecured loan to support a campaign is an idiot.

What does that say about someone who can't tell the difference between an unsecured loan and a loan secured by one's own investment account?

The first line of the article:
When Donald Trump heard that Ted Cruz had taken out a loan from Goldman Sachs (against his own investments, by the way)...

Touch back is your camp’s disingenuous term. Deport them all and make them reapply.

Ted won’t even make them leave!

"W A N K E R !" (s) Yes, both the writer and the poster. This guy VanderGalen's crap is forever being posted here, and its just bottom-of-the-barrel excrement! The Wankers can keep trying, but it isn't going to change anything this election season, Trump is just one more primary away from running the table. The Club for Growth/Right To Rise/You Name It PACs that are all the butt buddies of the “establishment candidates” are in the process of flushing their last salvos of $hit onto the airways in their vain attempt to take out Trump (and Cruz). And the GOPe and the RNC are quietly crapping themselves watching all this money being pi$$ed away with no discernible effect. The only good news is that it's all attached to Little Yebbie's a$$ and it's going to make him a national pariah for the rest of his life!

Trump supporters won’t care.

Darn straight, plus there is more of us everyday.

Welcome to the Trump apocalypse, we are the new world order capitalistic-anarchy Democracy. We believe in globalization because we re going to be doing the globalizing.

No more wimpy Plutocracies, Autocracies, Aristocracies, Theocracies. No more Communism, Islamunism, Socialism or Whateverisms.

The big free for all where nothing is free anymore. It s all ass, gas, or grass. /s of course.

Statist? Really? WOW! Sounds like a word tossed out during a college class on some subversive but politically correct class. Go for it my clueless FR friend.

Luckly Jesus had 12 truly righteous disciples and not people like Cruzboys, otherwise we’d be praying to Roman Gods.

Cruz took out a secured loan on the stocks in his brokerage account.

But don’t let facts stand in your way.

Which means....that for Trump to be using the Goldman Sachs loan to attack Cruz with makes Trump just as big of a liar as the leftist aholes he supports and has donated to (the Clintons, Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer, etc.). It makes him, at least in my book, another typical lying liberal/leftist.

Sorry, but we've already got one of those in the WH.
