When Donald Trump heard that Ted Cruz had taken out a loan from Goldman Sachs (against his own investments, by the way), he lashed out at his rival. The loan proved that Cruz was owned by the banks! He could not be trusted! He'd just do Goldman's bidding!
Oh my, how terrible! Yes, Cruz was clearly a crony of the big banks.
This criticism caused the Cruz campaign to study Trump's own finances a bit. What they've discovered is downright shocking:
Republican presidential hopeful Ted Cruz on Sunday said GOP front-runner Donald Trump owes “hundreds of millions or even billions†in unpaid loans. “If you look at his financial disclosure, he owes at least $480 million right now, and it could be billions,†Cruz said on “Fox News Sunday.†Cruz then lashed out at Trump for criticizing him for taking out a one million dollar loan:
He knows this loan story is complete nonsense. It’s also the height of chutzpah for someone who owes hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions of dollars, to attack Heidi and me because we put our life savings into running for Senate. And that brings me to The Donald's character. This man is a pathological liar with no moral compass whatsoever. Time and again, he accuses his rivals of doing something he -- Trump -- himself is guilty of it. See also his accusation that evangelical leader Bob Vander Plaats demanded $100,000 to speak at a rally in Iowa, with the facts proving that Trump demanded that incredibly amount and got it.

The loan was secured.
You have got that right. I don’t know anyone who owns a commercial real estate business who doesn’t borrow money from banks. So what is the point here? It is nothing but a pointless smear trying to make excuses for Cruz who “forgot” to report campaign loans. If you can’t understand the difference between normal business practices and someone who has violated campaign laws then you are hopelessly biased.
But keep believing Ted is a conservative who has the country's best interest at heart.
Does it suck not to think for yourself?
The Goldman Sachs loan Cruz took out was a margin loan against his own investments and securities - hardly unsecured.
What pathetic CRAP!
If you go back and read Trump’s books from when Ted was in Junior High School, you’ll see nothing has changed at the core.
It’s always been about the economy and making money.
Not living on other peoples taxes. (And his wife’s income from investment banks.)
What does that say about someone who can't tell the difference between an unsecured loan and a loan secured by one's own investment account?

Touch back is your camp’s disingenuous term. Deport them all and make them reapply.
Ted won’t even make them leave!
Darn straight, plus there is more of us everyday.
Welcome to the Trump apocalypse, we are the new world order capitalistic-anarchy Democracy. We believe in globalization because we re going to be doing the globalizing.
No more wimpy Plutocracies, Autocracies, Aristocracies, Theocracies. No more Communism, Islamunism, Socialism or Whateverisms.
The big free for all where nothing is free anymore. It s all ass, gas, or grass. /s of course.

Statist? Really? WOW! Sounds like a word tossed out during a college class on some subversive but politically correct class. Go for it my clueless FR friend.
Exactly ...
Interesting posting history.
Welcome to FR.
Luckly Jesus had 12 truly righteous disciples and not people like Cruzboys, otherwise we’d be praying to Roman Gods.
But don’t let facts stand in your way.
Which means....that for Trump to be using the Goldman Sachs loan to attack Cruz with makes Trump just as big of a liar as the leftist aholes he supports and has donated to (the Clintons, Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer, etc.). It makes him, at least in my book, another typical lying liberal/leftist.
Sorry, but we've already got one of those in the WH.
