Cruz: Trump tax returns may show mob connection
Politico ^ | 2/28/16 | ELENA SCHNEIDER

Posted on 02/28/2016 8:51:18 AM PST by jimbo123

Ted Cruz speculated on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Donald Trump may be hesitant to release his tax returns because of “Donald's business dealings with the mob, with the mafia.”

“ABC, CNN, multiple news reports have reported about his some dealings with, for example, S&A Construction, which was owned by 'Fat Tony' Salerno, who is a mobster who is in jail,” Cruz said Sunday morning. “Maybe his taxes show those business dealings are a lot more extensive than has been reported.”

The want Cruz

Cruz was just playing his supporters as suckers, he pretended to be an “outsider” while being a connected insider the whole time

You can still fool people these days, Cruz proved that

Trump doesn’t want a lying sleazeball on his team. So instead he just took Cruz’s voters away from him. Cruz is reduced to begging the GOPe to make a deal with him and Rubio.

Cruz offered it back during the debate. You might have heard that if you stopped worshipping and listened.

I have it on very good authority, that documents - yet to be found - will prove conclusively that Elana’s father was a wombat.

May. And if, possibly, could be, perhaps. All words designed to prop up a fanciful theory.

Hey Cruz, How do we know your visits to public restrooms aren't homo fantasy joy rides.
OH NO! Not another foot tapping GOP Senator.

I’ve been a Cruz supporter all along but I think he’s jumped the shark and is beginning to lose it. I had hoped for better.

They’ll be the same ones bitching about Trump later and not admitting they were supporters

Whoa! Herein lies the huge problem (This red team blue team stuff) me, you everybody is not on a political team we must be beholden to or support come hell or high water after an election.

Nobody knows the future we take our experience in life guided by the wisdom we have vote and hope for the best.

This time I've had enough of establishment politicians and Donald routinely repeats what I say at the dinner table. So there you go.

I know I can pitch a good snark here and there and I've been trying to curb the impulse because whatever happens we need to hold these elected officials accountable and start ripping in to the bureaucracy.

This vote and forget - rah rah rah yeay my guy! Your guy is Hitler isn't working for any normal folks (I guess we calling them the unprotetcted now)

A pretty fantasy, but the statement that there is no honor among thieves is probably what a great truisms of every age.

If you could buy Ted Cruz... Why hasn’t Donnie done so already? Not smart enough?

Current market evaluation artificially high - at MCI level right now

Best to wait till market opens on Wednesday the price will be much lower, after Tuesdays shorting and disappointing earnings report.

With all his billions trump should have helped take down the mob. They hurt free enterprise and hurt small business.

So you're saying that it's a private citizens job to take down the mob? The Mafia has been entrenched in parts of America for over 100 years. Where have your precious politicians and government been in dealing with this abomination?

Illegal immigration has been a problem for over 30 years. Have your buddies in DC fixed it?

After 9/11, all politicians supported "building the wall" and clamping down on over stayed visas. Have they fixed it? That's criminal.

Now your politicians invite unvetted Muslims into our communities under the guise of compassion.

I guess it's gonna take private citizens to fix the mess that is DC. No wonder their squealing.

Why doesn’t he just release his return if he’s so confident everything is on the up and up. It’s hysterical to see some FReepers jump on Cruz’s statement as moonbat crazy before knowing this story existed.

It is a valid question.

Hew was born in Canada.

His mother was an American.

His father was a Cuban citizen.

That poses questions that have not been resolved.

I have no opinion one way or the other except that I would like to see it resolved.
