Ted Cruz’ Gay Marriage Money
Texas Monthly ^ | 3-22-2015 | R. G. Ratcliffe0

Posted on 04/21/2016 3:45:20 PM PDT by scooby321

One donor was Paul Elliott Singer of the hedge fund Elliott Management Corporation. Singer, whose son married his partner, donated $425,000 and raised another $500,000 to push for legalization of same-sex marriage in New York. In 2012, Singer donated $1 million to the American Unity PAC, with the purpose of supporting candidates who back gay marriage. Singer gave Cruz $25,000 in 2009.

Arrogant, anointed, with a track record of voting to and/or supporting screwing America in trade and commerce, mushy on the border, mushy on security, an insider and a natural-born Canadian to boot.

Being turned off of Trump doesn't require me to go to Cruz.

Rafael Pinocchio Cruv just sunk his ship in California, home of the LGBT community bathroom rights. I think that it is wonderful that California is about to voter and Rafael Cruz just offend 60% of the voters in California.

You are supposed to “PING” people in your post when “discussing” them. I know rules don’t mean anything to you -just like Ted.

The most psychopathic behavior I have noted does not seem to come from Cruz.

Some of ‘em you just have to ignore. But there comes a point when enough is enough. Especially when paying the freight.

Pinging you to this post from “Nervous Tick”.

Nervous Tick thinks it’s OK to call me a “depraved pervert”.

Or he will cancel his monthly.

If the Viking Kitties would take care of Nervous Tick PERMANENTLY, I will GLADLY pay his monthly.

How is Trump winning when he lost by a 3 to 1 margin in NY behind Sanders and Clinton? How is he winning when he received fewer votes in NY than Cruz did in WI?

These are quite possibly the dumbest Cruzlim talking points yet and they had already gone full retard quite a while ago.

One wonders how Cruz is “winning” since he got less than 25% of what Trump got in NY?

Ah, Common Core Math.

Strictly speaking...

Cruz got 1896650 votes and 140 delegates.

Trump got 1668920 votes and 143 delegates.

One could argue this is typical of the Cruz campaign:

Roll up huge numbers of votes in concentrated locales even though it isn't getting any additional delegates.

The strength of this is the raw numbers of votes statewide, which is how states are apportioned during the general.

The question is the number of crossover votes Cruz might get, given how strongly he is alienating Trump supporters.

...and then there's the effect on the down-ticket races to consider.

I thought Trump was presumptive nominee? Why is Ted still living in people’s heads?

Seriously? Cruz is living in many heads as he alienates his original base (except for those willing to close their eyes and ignore a lot of cracks in his formerly perfect facade. They make much of stories about Trump "supporting the pervs" when the truth is that they have to twist and presume meanings not backed up by the contextual words/situation, then they mock stories about Cruz because they happened last year and also because they can't refute the stories (2015? HAHAHAHAHA).

Trump is living far deeper in your heads than Cruz is living in ours.

BTW - I asked Cruz folks to stop calling me about a dozen times and am still getting at least 3 calls a day (some as late as 9 PM) which would indicate that Cruz might be having a money worry - because he has alienated so much of his former base...
