So ... according to this Cruz is a secret insider because of Fiorina’s endorsement.

But Trump is still an outsider because of Chris Christie’s endorsement?

ROFL!

right.

It means Carly knows she wouldn’t make the cut when Trump starts hiring. He already said he was not impressed with her

“$500,000 transferred from KtP1 (Keep The Promise) which is Ted Cruz’s Super-PAC, to CfA (Carly for America) Ms. Fiorina’s Super-PAC, in June of 2015. What clarifies now, with this new information, is how the fallacy of false choice was being presented to us by the Wall Street financial team, the Globalists, last year. Remember, even the FEC wanted know what they were doing (LINK).”

O.K. Cruzers, why woud he do that?

Nice hit piece. Cruz has a proven track record of being a conservative, unlike the RINOs mentioned herein, and the remaining candidates on the ballot. He is the only proven conservative.

If you want to depart from that and try something different, then cool. But stop the madness by any insinuation that Cruz is part of the establishment. They freaking hate him.

“So ... according to this Cruz is a secret insider because of Fiorina’s endorsement.”

No, what we all want to know is why Cruz gave Fiorina a half a mill? That’s a hellova lot more than any endorsement. That’s collusion of some kind!

Ted Cruz, a lawyer politician and you call him an outsider?
Cruzers need to wake up and see Cruz as the stealth Establishment candidate he always has been. One lie after another.

Cruz was supporting amnesty until recently. This move is so transparent anyone can see his dishonesty
Jeff Sessions endorsed Trump - not Cruz

So what’s the point.

Everyone knows the mothers milk of politics is money.

Without gobs of money you can’t come close to getting elected.

If folks want to shift that paradigm, happily vote for Trump or for some other filthy rich guy.

In addition, by Ted Cruz adding Neil Bush Cruz is signifying an ideological alignment that is 180° divergent than most of the supporters of Ted Cruz would be aware of. These alignments point to a direct acceptance that much of the story-line behind Cruz’s candidacy was false.

I disagree (and I hope and pray that I'm right). I read this hiring as signifying that (1) Trump is the person most responsible for knocking out Jeb (thank you, Donald!) and thus the one Jeb's staff is most angry at, while Cruz is his only viable rival, and (2) that Cruz is at least marginally better by the standards of Jeb's former staff than Trump, for whatever reasons. To the extent that those reasons match my own (an issue that concerns me, but so does the question of how flexible Trump would become once he had the republican nomination), I'm okay with that.

Why would Cruz accept Jeb's staff? I hope he is doing it watchfully, making sure they do not squander the Cruzz budget the way they wasted Jeb's massive funds. I hope he is doing it to gain their expertise in the areas where they are knowledgeable. I hope they will be used to make his primary and general election campaigns more effective. I'm okay with that too.

What are Cruz supporters’ defense for Cruz hiring S&L scammer Neil Bush, the very definition of insider establishment crony sleaze?

“Cruz has a proven track record of being a conservative,”

And just what does that mean? That he talks a good story? Where are all his concrete contributions to Conservatism? Reading chidren’s books to the Senate? Cruz is a fraud! He may well even be the GOPe’s covert stalking horse. We will soon see won’t we.

With all those Bush money men, and the talk of a "contested convention", and a few other dots to be connected, is it possible to see a Cruz / Bush ticket? A supposed throwback to the Reagan / Bush ticket?

Trump better win outright or we could see some really strange things.
