“...Because as people have been saying all along, his wife’s connection to Goldman Sachs is a big target on his back...”

Oh bull-butter! Goldman-Sachs was simply the bank where their personal account was deposited. It was a loan from their own asset account to themselves. It was no “gift” from the bank. I’ve taken a loan from my retirement account too - does that mean I’m a puppet of my bank?

The only folks who give a rats-patoot are the folks who want Cruz to go away because he is perceived as a threat to their preferred candidate. Every other rational observer understands that the money came from the Cruz’s personal asset account as a loan to himself, was not some secret gift from the bank, and he repaid the loans as agreed. And as for filing an amended FEC report, name any candidate in modern history who *has not* done so?

It’s a dead horse. No-one cares around here except (mostly) Trump fans who cling to it trying to whip-up controversy while hypocritically ignoring Trumps Goldman-Sachs loans that maybe he paid back... maybe he didn’t... Well, I keep forgetting, that’s *different*... Somehow. #CultOfPersonality

I said the problem was not the loans but the erroneous filing. Please stick to what I said if you are going to try to refute it. Otherwise you make it sound like I said the loans themselves were important. They are relevant only as backstory, to try to explain Cruz’s motivation. Thanks.
