Cruz filed two financial disclosures at the same time. One listed it (Senate one), one did not (FEC one). When the omission was discovered on the FEC one, Cruz responded with an amended one.

Does that sound like a deliberate attempt to hide something, or a bit of botched paperwork by a staffer?

If you miss checking a box on your tax form one year, are you instantly a tax fraud? No, the IRS flags it, calls it to your attention and gives you the opportunity to file an amended return.

Are you kidding me with that remark??? I will bet that not one Trump supporter did NOT expect Trump to have huge loans for his properties!!
Worse than Hillary’s e-mails I think you need to put down that bourbon!!!

Not to mention, trump is the scion of a real estate empire that will require loans while he’s in office if it’s going to continue to operate.

Trump has businesses around the world. He would be beholden to foreign interests in those countries.

Trump did not get a loan for his campaign - big difference

Instead, Trump rolled personal Citibank debt into a corporate bankruptcy.

Surely the upstanding Trump will dissolve all business realtionships if elected. Good grief, George W Bush sold off his share of the Texas Rangers to prevent conflict of interest claims.

The name calling and use of alinski tactics by followers of trump on FreeRepublic is disturbing. You do realize you are only a half step away from using words like ‘teabaggers’ don't you?

What is the value of becoming as disgusting as liberals? Where does that get you? “Cruzers”. Geez.

By the way I'm just as disgusted at the word “Trumpeters”.

This isn't kindergarten and and calling people names won't make you the popular kid.

/rant off

There's a difference between taking a business loan for a hotel from a large bank and taking a large campaign contribution because your wife works there.

Ah, the pitfalls of making it up as you go. You end up looking like a complete fool.

What in the world are you talking about??? What name calling???

The Trump supporters are Trumpsters and the CRuz supporters are Cruzers....something that, I think, both sides will pretty much agree on. No hard feelings like when Trumpeteers, Trumpanzees or whatever Cruzers are likely called.

That disgusting TB word you posted is something I have NEVER come close to using. Shame on you...for YOU using Alinsky tactics. Thanks for stopping by from 2012 to push your bull, btw.

You got that right. Every time I hear someone use 'apples and oranges' to defend Trump's hypocrisy, I have to check the URL to make sure I haven't wandered onto DU by accident.

Could you be honest, and tell us just why you lie?

Leaving them "in charge" does not mean totally dissolving his relationship. Making one child the CEO while he remains Board Chairmen puts them "in charge" in most peoples' minds. Will he still be on the board? A shareholder?

The standard set by other Presidents is to step down from all corporate boards, sell all corporate interests (shares & options), and move all assets into personal property and publicly traded mutual funds.

Do you believe Trump will meet that standard?

This whole article is an embarrassment, and those that defend it are even more embarrassing. Get a life, anti-Trumpsters. Your desperation is showing.

Isolate the target....
Personal assaults are part and parcel of the alinski tactics.

Freepmailing you because this thread and this forum don't deserve this BS.

None the less, they succeeded in getting a post of mine pulled.

No lie. It’s tempting, but it is lazy, and it’s used to brand people as fitting into a dehumanized group worthy of scorn.

I’d say they are equally accessible, but the general public may know about FEC forms more than Senate disclosures. I have no data to prove that, though.

I won’t accept your untrue and unfair premise.

You’re the one who has attempted to Alinskyize. No thanks.

I don't know you. I don't dislike you personally, I don't wish you ill in any way. I disagree on your choice of candidates but I respect that you care.

I would like you and others to stop attacking those with whom you disagree. At best your methods are juvenile. The tactics are either mean girl or alinski inspired. I dislike those tactics greatly.
