Trump Flat Out Says Cruz ‘Illegally’ Coordinated With Super PACs, Violating Election Law
Law Newz ^ | April 6, 2016 | Rachel Stockman

Posted on 04/06/2016 8:10:55 AM PDT by RideForever

In his, shall we say, ‘defeat’ statement following his Wisconsin loss, Donald Trump leveled some pretty heavy accusations at his opponent, Ted Cruz. This time, he’s accusing the Republican presidential hopeful of flat-out violating election law. ... According to opensecrets.org, there are 12 pro-Ted Cruz super PACs (independent-expenditure only committees) that have raised millions of dollars. A group called Keep The Promise III has raised the most funds at over $16.5 million. However, to date, we have no evidence that Cruz openly coordinated with these groups, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened. The rules on what counts as coordination are a bit murky.

Trump seems smart enough to consult with attorneys before issuing a statement containing accusations. He may, or may not, have a smoking gun he's holding as an ace up his sleeve.

Pass the popcorn ...

Still waiting for all those lawsuits that Trump threatened Cruz with...... not holding breath

And (all), don’t start the ‘Ted must be guilty because he’s NOT suing Trump for slander’ idiotic BS again.

So stupid sometimes.,

Suspecting nefarious behavior where there is absolutely no evidence of same seems to be a common affliction among Cruz critics.

Well, if he's got hard evidence of that, he should make it public immediately, or at least say that he's turned it over to the FEC.

If he doesn't have hard evidence of that, then he's going to end up sounding like a petulant whiner.

Oh nonsense, that was just "the Donald" having one of his trumptrantrums. He makes false accusations all the time. Trump is just a sleaze merchant who traffics in lies and trash. He's got nothing, if he did he'd already have sent it all to the FEC.

I think you Cruz-bots should take your own advice. As Rush Limbaugh has pointed out, does anyone really believe that there is NOT any coordination going on?

Trump makes a lot of baseless accusations, throws around insults and calls names- much like a schoolyard bully.

He was a sore loserman last night.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most of Trump’s statements include accusations. No support, just accusations.

But if someone lied to and about you, and cheated on you, you’d sit back nice and quietly, like a real gentleperson, right?

Which is why Trump will not be nominated if he doesn’t win the first vote. Cruz, OTOH, is playing the long game to win over delegates in the second and subsequent ballots. Trump’s strategy is to whine and call Cruz names.
