Neil Bush, son of former President George H.W. Bush and brother of former President George W. Bush and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, is joining Cruz's national finance team, the campaign said Tuesday.
They do this every time.
They will infiltrate the Cruz campaign and make Ted his lackey.
We are so screwed if Trump loses. Just.Screwed.
The Bush Family has run the Republican since 1988. Think about it folks.
“The unprincipled part is that Cruz claims”
There is no unprincipled part of Cruz. Neither candidate is likely to win without reaching out to others who oppose the democrats or the candidate you support. We tend to praise those who come to us and demonize those who don’t. You can demonize me and call me a rino if you want. I’ll not vote for or support Trump, I don’t vote for liberals, democrats, or democrats posing as conservative Republicans, the mentally unstable or those with severe personality disorders.
Despite Cruz’s attacks on his party’s donor class and establishment, the Texas senator Ted Cruz^s GOP campaign has received $37 million from just four donors.
The Wilks family of Cisco, Texas, New York hedge fund tycoon Bob Mercer, Texas energy investor Toby Neugebauer and Illinois manufacturing moguls Dick and Liz Uihlein.
My, my, my - tastes like establishment pie.
Under Neil Bush's stewardship, Silverado S&L's collapse wound up costing taxpayers nearly a billion. Neil Bush, a name you can really bank on!
Well, maybe the game plan of the GOPe is to have Bush, Romney or Ryan as the Presidential nominee with Cruz as VP to keep the “conservatives” in the tent. Sorry but no GOPe nominee will have my vote.
What exactly have the conservatives in congress accomplished?
Obamacare scrapped?
Illegals deported?
Wall built?
Anchor babies outlawed?
National debt reduced?
Abortion restricted?
China trade deficit reduced?
Food stamp growth curbed?
Welfare growth reduced?
Fraud in Medicare & Social Security under control?
As many as 25% of Medicare payments go to fraudulent claims,
and tens of thousands of people over age 110 still mailed
social security checks without proof they are living!
If Trump can deliver any 3 of above, he is more than enough
conservative for most rational people.
Trump is conservative on these issues:
Pro life since at least 2011, wanted to ban partial birth
abortion as far back as 2000
Pro Traditional marriage. Gay rights is not his thing
Pro capital punishment
Hold Judges accountable
Common core is a disaster
Anti education unions (2000)
For school choice
Believes man made Climate Change is a hoax
No Cap-and-Tax
For drilling our own
Stressed importance of strong family & culture (2015)
Supports Israel
Opposes Iran deal and letting Iran obtain the bomb
Wants to crush ISIS quickly
Wants a military so strong no one will challenge us
Against unbalanced trade deals that kill American jobs
Against warrant-less government surveillance of citizens
Against having a high national debt
Warns that $24T is a point of no return
Against gun control
For assault weapon ban but says the AR-15 shouldn't
be considered an assault weapon
Wants to repeal Obamacare and replace it with market driven
polices and increased competition among insurance companies
Wants to increase military spending
Will close the border to illegals
Will deport all illegals but will let the hard working
ones go through the legal process to come back
Against Anchor babies
Will bring jobs back through better trade negotiation
Stood up for Birthers and challenged Obama on his fraud
Believes USA is the greatest force for freedom the world
has ever known
Wants to honor commitments on Social Security and Medicare,
which we can afford if he gets the economy going full steam.
Wants to reduce the fraud in disability and other programs
Against marriage penalties in tax code
Wants to simplify tax code with just 3 simple brackets
Wants to reduce income taxes and reduce corporate tax
Wants to rebuild our infrastructure
Wants to apply welfare-to-work to 76 other welfare programs (2011)
Does not have time for political correctness
Not afraid to call out either party or both when they are wrong
Not a puppet of mega-rich donors and Lobbyists
Go Trump 2016! Make America Great Again! It is almost too late, but only Donald Trump has the know-how, courage, name recognition, and freedom from rich donors to accomplish that gargantuan task.
So when Dubya said he didn’t like Cruz, the Trumpkins laughed and crowed that, “Cruz is a bad guy and no one likes him.” We replied, “of course not, he fights the Establishment and they hate him for it.”
But now, a Bush joins his team and the Trumpkins say, “Cruz is loved by the establishment and they are the only people who like him.” Make up your minds (or at least try to be more consistent than your main man, Donny T).
Come on, people. You add these guys to your team because running in the general is going to require money, gobs of it. So much money, even Trump can’t “self-loan” his own campaign the $1 Billion it will take to succeed against Hillary.
I think this is about the GOPe helping Cruz because they hate Trump, not because they like Cruz. And I think Cruz is accepting because he’s in a Hail Mary situation.
After all, W (I despise him so!) pretty much said he hated Cruz.
Yep. Those paying attention, those capable of critical thought have understood this for decades.
See....the Cubnadian isn’t a Bush insider!!!
Right.......
Whatever. Neil Bush isn’t a principled hire, no matter how you spin it. Look into Silverado Savings and Loan if you want to know why.
1: Oh, that’s apple pie.
2: No it’s not. How dare you?
1: What’s in it?
2: Apple, cinnamon, filling, a nice sugary crust.
1: Okay, that’s an apple pie.
2: You’re just another hateful cherry pie hater!
1: No, I just want the truth.
2: I’ve never seen such ruthless, insulting, vulgar people as you cherry pie haters.
1: Chuckle...

Neil is as corrupted as the rest of the Bush family and the Clinton Family....
Ted sure knows how to pick them...hope they do him good!!!
“You ignore everything Cruz has ever said, what he has done...”
That’s just it. We’re not ignoring any of the things Ted’s said and done, which is why we choose Trump.
Ted Cruz’s ‘consistent conservative’ record:
TPA/TPP
Corker bill
Married to Goldman Sachs
Harvard lawyer
Freshman Senator
Government careerist
No executive experience
Cuban/Canadian/American
Was for more H1-B visas before he was against them
Hasn’t been attacked by Mitt Rove (wonder why?)
Goldman Sachs connection
Ha. If Trump hired Rubio and Jeb both to work on his campaign you Trump trolls scream how brilliant that was.
Bush looks spastic and robot Rubio looks human here but Romney looks like he has to practice the art of human laughter.
Nice list!
The GOPe wants to ride the Cruz horse to a brokered convention where they will chose one of their own...
