Show outside influence right! And the loans came from a very questionable source, Goldman Sachs Wall Street bankers where his wife is a Director. No?
You missed the 2nd question:
At the time of the Goldman Sacks loans did Rafael publicly state where the money came from?
No matter how ya chop it up, this is a problem for Cruz.
The loan is against their own assets where they already had their brokerage account.
You think have a brokerage account where you already work is questionable? I don’t anyone at any company at her level doesn’t have such an account.
So if they sold those stocks, no questions. But if they borrow against the assets they already have, it is questionable?
Do you think they were trying to buy secrete influence over themselves?
You can continue to ignore the answer to your question. I’m done repeating it.
But I do like the title of this as it conveniently left out who he DID NOT disclose it to. That's almost slick.
No he did not.
Do you think they were trying to buy secrete influence over themselves?
I have no idea what Rafael and his wife's specific motives were.
They were borrowing from themselves. Goldman Sachs already held their assets.
If I borrow against my retirement account for my kids college tuition payments, the bank has not made special accommodations for me. The only one at risk with the loan is me. They already have the value of the loan.
The bank or Goldman Sachs is just paid to handle the transaction and paperwork.
Ah yes, Goldman Sacks. The folks who are completely void of common morals and ethics. Lots of regular folks think their bunch of bloodsuckers would sell out their own mother. No joke.
You should read some history on GS.
What is an Anagin Loan?
MARGIN LOAN
A margin loan lets you borrow money to invest and uses your shares or managed funds as security.
It can help you increase your returns but it can also magnify your losses. Margin loans are
for dedicated investors who actively monitor and manage their investments.
???
thanks. Sort of like a loan against your 401-k
You and me both...
‘Per a Cruz video clip, it was a loan against his own brokerage account at Goldman Sachs. So: a loan against his own assets, not a loan from Goldman Sachs.’
So his own equity was at risk, and Goldman Sachs had no skin in the game? Well, even if he somehow hid his ‘loan-to-self’, to hide that is only to pretend to be a little more poor than you are. I could live with such a minor deception since people are unfairly harsh against people with money.
But any clerical error will be jumped on by the democrats and even by the ‘G’ OP [Godless Old Party of slanderers, hypocrites, backstabbers and phony Christians]. So better for Cruz to strengthen his armor now.
“If it was the case that they were not filed exactly as the FEC required, then weâll amend the filings”..
Exactly. As Cruz did make the disclosure to another agency, I find it rather unbelievable that he’d be attempting to hide the loan from FEC. It was an oversight and he can amend the form. It’s as simple as that.
No.
There are secured loans and unsecured loans. Unsecured loans are were the funny business goes on with politicians. Kickbacks, payments are never made, etc.
Cruz’s loan was secured by his own assets. There was no real credit or risk involved for the lender.
Sorry for the spelling errors...
That isn’t correct. He listed it as a margin loan. If there was no risk, there wouldn’t be such a thing as margin calls. And with a day like today, you can bet there were plenty of margin calls.
Plenty of accounts can blow up on margin.
No risk to the lender is what I said.
Why do you always have to lie? Or do you have reading comprehension issues?
Joe Scarborough said Trump was bigger than Reagan.
Trump did not say that.
