Another sliver coin, sir?

Cruz is NOT anti-establishment by any stretch of the imagination.

Anyone who bought into that, would buy anything.

Neil Bush would be in jail or a nobody if he did not have his last name. His Wikipedia entry is a list of multiple attempts to monetize his last name:

Who came up with this idea of adding this phony to your team? Is this a signal the GOPe and Uniparty do not have to worry?

Are you jealous? The Bush family had two Republican Presidents and Gov. of Florida. They have lots of influence. Good for Cruz for winning Neil’s support. Unless the different factions of the party come together, Hillary or Bernie will be the next President.

Neil Bush? At first I thought this was a joke. If Cruz has let Neil in he has let the entire Bush family in. That’s the way it works. That is the way it has worked for decades.

Neil’s is the worst of them, trust me, I got nose to nose with that little twerp years ago. That SOB has NEVER worked a day in his entire life! Not too long ago he an mommy were fleecing the local school districts for Neil’s moo cow software company.

What they are doing is shifting the Jeb money donors to Cruz and Neil and likely a host of others are now bundling for Cruz, for a commission of course which is what Neil was just doing for his brother.

What an amazing disappointment. Cruz is gone as far as I am concerned. This also means that Cruz is now backed by the Saudi Royal family.

Anyone that knows the Bush family knows that they have been raping the US Treasury for generations. Besides selling their influence which was the only reason Jeb ran all of them ar involved in various small companies where they get either board seats or insider stock for pennies and many times are involved in pump and dump schemes. Even “W” fleeced the public with the Stadium deal.

The Goldman deal was bad enough but this thing with the Bush family ends Ted Cruz as far as I am concerned. Too bad, I thought Cruz was one of the good guys.

If he’s just enlarging his team rather than fundamentally modifying its character, this could be a move for the better after all.

But you and I both know that what cruz is doing is selling out America and Americans for campaign cash just like he did with TPA and the corker bill.

I’ve been on record for months and months stating that Cruz is as much of an insider as any of them. He is a professional politician! Every freaking thing that happens in DC is pure THEATER! Cruz has the roll of ‘outsider’ which he plays well but behind the scenes he is 100% one of them. Wake up Cruzbots the dude’s mask is coming off.

Also didn’t he got divorce because he got caught for cheating on his wife. Yet Ted, with his Christian value, kicked an actress out of a campaign ad for doing some nudes in film. Yet here he is embracing this establishment doofus from the Bush Clan.

I frankly don’t care how much money is spent on a campaign. That’s a relatively small issue. I don’t expect Cruz to get political policy advice from this particular Mr. Bush either. It’s more a matter of looking bad.

Come together for the GOPe? Are you freaking kidding me?? Tens of millions of Americans are done with the democrats and GOPe. Zero chance that they'll support another Bush protege.

The optics of it are at best ambiguous.

Is this a signal to the GOPe crowd that he will play ball?

Who knows? Just like who knows if he’s NBC because we don’t have any more statutes that use the term?

The unprincipled part is that Cruz claims to be an establishment outsider while hiring Jeb and W’s brother for his campaign. It will make it harder for him to keep telling that particular lie. I think Cruz and his wife are a very successful establishment insider power couple, so this does not surprise me.

Yeah... troublesome optics there (although to be sure, we’ve had GOP notables use Democrats in their campaigns, so it is not an infallible rule).
