Full Title: Mitch McConnell’s Attorney PAC ‘Stand For Truth’, Sending Money To Ted Cruz PAC ‘Keep The Promise III’
The amount of money Washington DC is spending to attack Donald Trump and support Senator Ted Cruz is astounding.
They’re not even trying to hide the money flow much any more.
We previously shared how Mitch McConnell’s attorney, Eric Lycan was heading a PAC called “Stand For Truth”. That PAC was spending money attacking Donald Trump and Supporting Ted Cruz in Jan/Feb, in Iowa and on National Radio Shows

But Ted sCruz is not an insider, he’s a conservative like Mitch, Jeb, Mitt, Graham, Levin, Rush.
One of the slickest sick lawyer cons in history. Do you feel you have been fooled and screwed yet? This is the equivalent of throwing everything including the kitchen sink at Trump. Boy, are they scared to death of the man and it has absolutely nothing to do with the public BS lying narratives they are peddling to Americans.
I Have CLEARLY posted my opinions on the Actions of the RNC and the Convention rules.
If you haven’t taken the time to check before you post then I guess I understand why you support Donnie. It seems to be a pattern with Trump and his base.
There is absolutely noting wrong with a contested Convention. That is why there are rules telling the Party how they will deal with one. One of this Greatest President’s captured the Nomination that way.
1860-Abraham Lincoln.
Anything other than that is B.S.
Or are you saying the RULES don’t apply to Donnie?
You have well spoken. I hope you don’t think I disagree.
Absolutely not. I know you know the truth.
I just had to get it out.;)
SITS ON THE BOARD OF FOX NEWS WITH THE MURDOCHS
Pass it around. Rush won't tell you--so tell each other.
Bevin’s voting for Cruz now and basically his entire state government was selected by McConnell...the co-opting is quick, easy, and fast. Guys like Cruz and Bevin just want access to the money...
Yep. No doubt.
Sickening, isn’t it?
#26 Evidently she isn’t doing a very good job of Keeping Don off Fox.
Greta is All Donnie, all the time
Hannity is Mostly Don all the Time
Until a Month ago every one of his Rally’s were being shown live on one of the Fox Channels.
I think you Trump fans whine way to much because after getting Millions of dollars worth of free air time he gets called out on a couple of stupid things he said.
“The evidence rates right up there with the Evidence of Cruz’s supposed affairs, Kasich being gay and Donald Trump being a Republican.”
The evidence is in the FEC reports. The articles gives you the links to the FEC and tells you how to do the search for yourself. Or don’t you believe the Federal Election Commission and if they are lying why isn’t Cruz call a press conference and report the FEC as corrupt.
If you haven’t taken the time to check before you post then I guess I understand why you support Donnie. It seems to be a pattern with Trump and his base.

1860-Abraham Lincoln.

I am not going to go back and check everyone’s posting history.
When Lincoln won the nomination there were no primaries. There were no delegates bound by the voters. States chose the delegates. Lincoln won the nomination over William Seward in the 1860 Convention in Chicago. Lincoln's people made a deal with Simon Cameron of Pennsylvania, who controlled the Pennsylvania delegation. Cameron offered to trade his support for the promise of a cabinet position for himself and control of Federal patronage in Pennsylvania. Lincoln representative David Davis reached an agreement with Cameron, which eventually led to Cameron's appointment as Secretary of War.
Cameron was such a disaster as Secretary of War that he almost lost the Civil War before he was replaced by Edwin Stanton. Seward became Lincoln's Secretary of State and played an important part in winning the Civil War. Seward was known as Lincoln's right hand man.
Whatever the rules are, they should apply to Trump as well as all the potential nominees.
But it is clear that there is an attempt to divide the party by the GOPe. They have contempt for Trump voters and feel they should not have a say in the nomination.
The party needs to unite to win in November. I will support whoever is the nominee.
I wasn’t contending that Cruz’s Camp didn’t accept McConnell’s pac funds.
What I was saying is, the Trumpkins don’t get to smear Cruz with being Establishment because he accepted the funds unless Donnie is planning on not accepting any support from the Establishment.
His Forced Flip/flop on support of the Nominee after talking to Prebius last week was because he wants and NEEDS the RNC funds, resources and mailing lists for the General Election.
So if Cruz is Establishment because he took PAC money from McConnell then so is Trump for wanting the Establishment resources.
I have no freaking idea what the heck is going on here.
Is there REALLY a plot to try to steal the nomination from the winner of 2/3’s of state primaries?
If Trump wins 1237 delegate votes, then he wins the nomination.
If he doesn’t, then there’s an open vote at the convention.
Nobody will “steal” anything. They’re just following the rules.
If Trump has 1236 delegates and doesn’t leave the convention the nominee ... there will be blood in the streets, mark my words.
The rules require 1237. If no candidate reaches that, they don’t win outright. Need to follow ... the long-established rules.
Cruz is working with the GOPe to prevent Trump from getting the nomination through several methods. They are trying to place anti-Trump delegates into positions where voters have chosen Trump. They are getting control of the rules committee. They are working with the media to continually attack Trump supporters as racists, Nazi's, ignorant, etc.
The GOPe have contempt for Trump supporters and are trying to deny them a voice in the nomination.
Why would a PAC waste money on Cruz? They're not concerned with any diseases he might bring into White House?
A pro-Donald Trump super PAC has tapped Jesse Benton, a veteran Republican operative with ties to Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell, to serve as its chief strategist.
Mitch McConnell, the “Obama” leader of the failed GOP Establishment joins th rest of “his: low life Republican Establishment vermin in backing & supporting Ted Cruz!!! Wisconsin.....voters, wake up, you being had big time!!! Vote for donald J. Trump and get rid of all the GOP (E) deadbeats!!!
