Trump Goes on Tweetstorm Against ‘Wiseguy’ Cruz: The Banks ‘Own Him’
Donald Trump is amping up his feud with Ted Cruz with a tweetstorm this morning not just attacking Cruz on his Canadian birth, but on his closeness to big banks.
And Trump started out how you would expect he would, boldly declaring “I told you so”:
Ted Cruz was born in Canada and was a Canadian citizen until 15 months ago. Lawsuits have just been filed with more to follow. I told you so
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
He proceeded to go on the attack against Cruz on both the citizenship issue and how the banks “own him”:
Ted Cruz said he "didn't know" that he was a Canadian Citizen. He also FORGOT to file his Goldman Sachs Million $ loan papers.Not believable
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
Was there another loan that Ted Cruz FORGOT to file. Goldman Sachs owns him, he will do anything they demand. Not much of a reformer!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
Oh no, just reported that Ted Cruz didn't report another loan, this one from Citi. Wow, no wonder banks do so well in the U.S. Senate.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
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?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
Ted Cruz purposely, and illegally, did not list on his personal disclosure form personally guaranteed loans from banks. They own him!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
And yes, he’s still worked up about the “New York values” thing:
The Ted Cruz wiseguy apology to the people of New York is a disgrace. Remember, his wife's employer, and his lender, is located there!

UPDATE –– 1:27 pm EST: Still going:
Ted is the ultimate hypocrite. Says one thing for money, does another for votes.

If Ted Cruz is so opposed to gay marriage, why did he accept money from people who espouse gay marriage?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
Everybody that loves the people of New York, and all they have been thru, should get hypocrites like Ted Cruz out of politics!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
When will @TedCruz give all the New York based campaign contributions back to the special interests that control him.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
Greatly dishonest of @TedCruz to file a financial disclosure form & not list his lending banks- then pretend he is going to clean up Wall St
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 16, 2016
UPDATE –– 2:44 pm EST: He went there:
Is this the New York that Ted Cruz is talking about & demeaning? pic.twitter.com/rYGX9vazku
