Wealthy Cruz and Bush Donors Dump Millions Into Hillary Clinton’s Campaign
Gateway Pundit ^ | 5/9/2016 | Jim Hoft

Renaissance Technologies, a hedge fund founded by billionaire James Simons, donated over $13 million to Sen. Ted Cruz’s failed presidential campaign. For a guy who’s supposed to be pretty smart with his money, the ROI on that one has got to sting. Nevertheless, now that Mr. Cruz is out of the race, Mr. Simons has begun pouring millions of dollars into Hillary Clinton‘s campaign, with Renaissance Technologies donating over $2 million to Ms. Clinton so far this election cycle. Euclidean Capital—also owned by Mr. Simons—has given the Clinton campaign over $7 million in contributions, and such figures are likely to increase as Ms. Clinton slowly transitions her attention from Democratic Primary opponent Bernie Sanders to the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump.

Wow! If this is true, it means the donors saw no difference between Clinton or Cruz and that they could get what they wanted out of either. Double wow!

We were right.

The Republicrats really are a Uniparty.

Tell me about Trump donating to Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign, Al Sharpton, etc. I suppose that’s different?

It appears that some rich people deserve a traitor’s fate.

We’ve been explaining that to anyone with an IQ over 50 for the last ten months.

Sorry you didn’t reside in that group.

Nothing out of the usual pattern for the likes of him:
[James Harris Simons was born to a Jewish family, the only child of Marcia (née Kantor) and Matthew Simons}]

“Jews provided at least half the money donated to the DNC in the 1998 and 2000 election cycles.”

You said it. That’s why the hardcore establishment boys are still having a hissy fit about Trump.

Perhaps the Oswald and 911 conspiracy theories were true.
Bush and Cruz are nothing but American backstabbers,
protectors of the Saudis, globalists, and vote stealers.

Maybe they are Dems who funded Cruz in the hope they could take out Trump, the strongest opponent against Hillary.

Why is it so many of you children don’t post here very often?

I can go back to December on your “in forum” comments section, on the first page.

I note that the folks who seem to be challenged the most, are the ones who have been here the least.

The guy is a clown if he didn’t see much difference between Cruz an Clinton.

I guess he’s afraid that he cannot buy influence with Trump.

Oh, so because I don’t post as frequently as you do I have have nothing of value to contribute?

Keep attacking. You show your colors more and more.
