The political arm of the Club for Growth, which has invested millions in ads to stop Donald Trump, is going one step further and endorsing Ted Cruz.

“Ted Cruz is the best free-market, pro-growth, limited-government candidate in the presidential race,” Club for Growth President David McIntosh said in a statement.

The Club for Growth PAC has never previously endorsed in a presidential race.

“This year is different,” McIntosh said, "because there is a vast gulf between the two leading Republican candidates on matters of economic liberty. Their records make clear that Ted Cruz is a consistent conservative who will fight to shrink the federal footprint, while Donald Trump would seek to remake government in his desired image."

God Himself could endorse Cruz and he still wouldn’t win.

Club For Growth attacks Trump, spends nothing on McCain challenger.

Club For Growth attacks Wil Cardon, backs pro amnesty Jeff Flake (CReview Rating 39%).

Club For Growth spends nothing on Dave Brat, spends nothign to defeat Ryan.

After tonight, Ted will need 88% of the outstanding delegates.

That means Trump would not be able to get more than 12% of the remaining delegates for Ted to get 1237 delegates before the Convention.

Trump will need around 52-55% after tonight.

Wanna bet no mention of this on Rush, Hannity, Beck, or Levin’s shows tomorrow. The Club for Growth would normally get bashed by these guys for their establishment credentials, but since they’re supporting their man Cruz you won’t hear a peep from any of them about this.

CFG has been funding Ted for years.
This is not a shock.

Still makes me wonder who exactly is this Washington Cartel?

Club for Growth. TPA and TPP free trade and screw the US workers. Cruz helped passed TPA so he’s OK by them.
