Grasping at straws...this is pathetic..lol

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

Go Trump!
Go Cruz!

You do not seem to understand that a loan against ones own retirement account is not only secured, but can be converted to an early withdrawal at will, only requiring the taxes and penalty to be paid.

Yet you call others idiot.

Anyone who doesn't know that a margin loan from Goldman Sachs is fully secured by the value of their portfolio is ignorant.

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

But don’t let facts stand in your way.

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

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)...

Agreed. IF this had any real validity, it would have been used months ago, front and center to block him so he couldn't get any momentum. This is pure B.$

However, you overlook the fact that the loan Cruz took out from Goldman Sachs was a loan against his own equity he had in an account that was equal to the amount of the loan.

Way different.

Cruz is a punk. Go away little boy. When I grew up we’d have said -” He’s a damn pussy.”
