How is it relevant, since he paid it back? Because any connection with Goldman Sachs makes you wonder if he's a tea party guy who's for the people, or just another bought and paid for politician owned by corporate interests. Lets see if I got this right...Trump is all over Cruz because he took out Goldman Sachs LOANS to finance his run for the Senate. But for his VP Trump wants Scott Brown who got yuge DONATIONS from Goldman Sachs in his run for the Senate... I have no idea what Trump thinks about this and I don't really care. Because it doesn't really matter as to the point of whether Cruz is who he says he is, or just another Goldman asset who has played conservative so far. But keep your eyes squeezed shut and I'm sure you'll be fine.

Right or wrong smart or no we are quibbling about a legal loan while $2 billion is missing from the State dept. Little bigger story in my book. Hadn't heard that but I have a good idea where to look.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

If you spent the time you just wasted trying to read my mind actually thinking, you'd be much better off in the long run.

I'm just asking why none of Cruz's fanboys think him being hooked up with Goldman should be an issue, and you immediately change the subject to Trump.

RufusG, Because I'm not trying to read your mind? I'm just asking why none of Cruz's fanboys think him being hooked up with Goldman should be an issue, and you immediately change the subject to Trump. Certainly you saw the connection from Cruz to Trump  that was made. If not, you are the one with his eyes closed.

I simply don't GAF about what Trump has to do with any of this. I'm asking a question about Cruz to his supporters. One guy more or less answered it saying he'll give him the benefit of the doubt. That's fine. Everybody else can't change the subject fast enough.

Lt, this YT video shows what a know-it-all, holier-than-thou, full-of-himself, snide, a-hole, "THE" Donald...IS ! Obozo, Haglarry and the DemoGoonies have done and continue doing much much worse, treasonus acts in fact. Where is "THE" Donald's outrage at any of that??? Guess he doesn't attack his "friends", especially politicians that can do favors for him... "THE" Donald doesn't want to cut his bridges to any of his NY Schitty VALUES FRIENDS ! Imagine 1 Term of this ph#ctard - No Thank You ! Ted Cruz 2016 ... Because we need his smarts in picking the next bunch of Supreme Court Constitutionalist Judges that strictly hold to the Constitution ...and do Not Legislate from the bench!!! Speaking of running campaigns....I wonder if Donald Trump has considered the fact that, if he wins the nomination, he's going to need the folks that he has disaffected through his disparaging of other same-party opponents? Trump might be popular, but that doesn't mean he isn't an idiot (just as being educated doesn't mean you are smart.) Meanness, hate, and division are all wonderful, popular concepts. If you don't believe that, consider the fact that gangs are still popular both in and out of prison, that many otherwise intelligent people thought Hitler (or Obama) was their beacon of hope, that chickens and apes still have a pecking order.... Trump is not the "hope and change" many people think he is; he's more of the same old "hope and change" we have now.

RickyD, sorry I was way off. It is $6b. Link below is from judicial watch but they are certainly not alone in reporting it. Missing money under Hillary's watch

Most of us know that the Wilks Bros. and Nuegebaur here in Texas support Cruz to the point he doesn't need any W.S. money for his Potus run. His Senate run proved what he could do, and as long as he can continue raising substantial money thru small contributions, they will pick up any slack. And neither of his big backers need any favors from him after he is elected. Cruz is his own man.

Certainly you saw the connection from Cruz to Trump that was made. If not, you are the one with his eyes closed. Trump is kinda hard to leave out of this issue... “Goldman Sachs owns him, he will do anything they demand. Not much of a reformer!” Trump tweeted. “Ted Cruz purposely, and illegally, did not list on his personal disclosure form personally guaranteed loans from banks,” Trump added. “They own him!” “Based on the fact that Ted Cruz was born in Canada and is therefore a “natural born Canadian,” did he borrow unreported loans from C banks?” Trump asked.

Once upon a time,
And neither of his big backers need any favors from him after he is elected.
And they all lived happily ever after.

And every thread on the 'Fire rigidly stays within the focus of the initial post. Yeah, got it. I apologize for thinking I could ask a serious question and actually have an adult discussion.

Amazing malfeasance until you consider the players. Weren't you just crying about people "changing the subject to Trump"? (On a thread, in which Trump is the subject.)

After Levine runs for the GOP nomination and pulls 40+ percent nationwide, *then* he'll be qualified to give people advice on how to run their campaigns. I'll second Levins OPINION...that said, as much as I like Trumps talking points, he acts like the class clown on the debate stage...making faces, rolling his eyes & shaking his head...another thing that bothers me about him is his arrogance... A whole lot of folks on here talk about obamas narcissism but I have yet to see that label attached to Trump...(The Donald)  I also think Trump would double down on obamas executive orders...Personally I want to see him crash and burn with Cruz being the one to send him into a unrecoverable tailspin... Exactly correct.
