Cruz bitting the New York libs who feed him.

Don't be ridiculous. Libs aren't giving money to Cruz.

His presidential campaign has accepted $43,575 from people at [Goldmann Sachs]

You realize his wife does not work in New York, right? Implying that these donations came from New York is plain dishonest. Yet dishonesty is what I have grown to expect from Pollutico. Can't believe a FR member is actually citing it.

Again, why is this relevant? He’s raised a lot of money from a lot of people.

It shows that Trump’s attack on him over this was unwarranted.

These two gay Libertarians had Cruz come over to their New York City apartment for a campaign fund raising event. This wasn’t just some small time stuff either, these guys and their friends are billionaires.

Where is Goldman Sachs headquartered?

She works at the regional office in Texas, but Goldman Sachs is as New York as it gets.

What were the facts here ? I must have missed something? You must know something. Tell us all.

You’re lumping Cruz supporters together like a bunch of New Yorkers. I’m a Cruz supporter but I will gladly support Trump if he gets the nomination, and I’ve seen many other posters express the same sentiment. Some Trumpbots are worse than Dallas Cowboys fans.

Totally irrelevant. Heidi Cruz does not work in the HQ. The article implies that those donations were given in New York. That is patently false.

What were the facts here ? I must have missed something?There were two loans, both originating in Texas and both based on Texas assets. The loans totaled between $500,000 and $1,000,000. The loans were backed by assets that exclusively belonged to the Cruzes. And the loans were paid back within a year by the Cruzes.

So when you say that they raised millions from loans in New York, it is complete unadulterated BS.

hmm, why is Cruz attempting to apologize for other people’s actions and not his own? Comes across insincere.

No, I’m not lumping all of together. I stated that quite clearly, that some of you would vote for Trump just as we would vote for Cruz.

And there are quite a few Cruz supporters who are politely described as rabid.

In your attempt to sound amicable, you’re actually being condescending and snarky, which is also quite typical.

Rafael’s super PACS have indeed taken multiple millions from NY.

They aren’t his PACs. Which is why they are PACs. The total given to Cruz is less than $224 K.

I feel entirely safe in saying you missed the point. It's the liberal powers of New York who should be apologizing.

Trying reading it again with that in mind.

Attacking my registration date instead of the facts betrays your maturity level not mine.

Defend Cruz on merit, or admit he messed up on this New Yorker thing and live to fight another day.

I’m “typical”, but you’re not lumping people together. I got it.
