Don’t know if you saw my Goldman Sachs (GS) posts and Cruz’ wife’s working for GS but GS is very very bad news. They are maniacs and sociopaths.
The GS connection concerns me greatly. They are such bad news. They take no prisoners and never lose.
I agree on GS. They play both sides pretty well too, good inroads into both the Dems and the GOPe. One of the biggest a**hats I’ve ever known was a GOPe son/trust fund beneficiary of a GS exec. Daddy used his influence and $$$ to buy Junior entré into various senior GOPe circles.
But I wouldn’t read too much into Heidi Cruz’s employment at GS. She wasn’t a senior exec up at HQ in NYC, but more of a regional manager for a territory in Texas.
What if the establishment had to have a stealth candidate who could (they hoped) fool the most conservative voters? They would have to go dark, planning everything in a top secret way. Cruz runs for the Senate as a top secret candidate, not even McCain or McConnell knew. Cruz is the perfect stealth candidate, his attack on McConnell gives him conservative bona fides and he became the leader against the establishment. But all the time he was the inside guy picked to deliver the TPP.
McConnell and Boehner are both expendable pawns. They are being used and have been kept in the dark concerning Cruz.
I looked up Cruz on Wikipedia here is his resume:
* 1999-2003 director of the office of Policy Planning of Federal Trade Commission
*Associate Deputy Attorney General at the United States Department of Justice
*Domestic Policy Advisor to George W. Bush on the 2000 Presidential Campaign
*Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 to May 2008
There are a lot of connections to Bush.
Where are your GS posts concerning Heidi Cruz. I would very much like to read them.
