Senator Ted Cruz
has at least eight Super-PAC’s assisting his presidential campaign;
and according to a recording obtained by
Politico a Cruz’s campaign bundler was directing
large donors toward one PAC specifically. The “Stand for Truth” PAC.
Why is that aspect pertinent? Not a single primary took place until Feb 1st, and almost all of the candidates were still in the race when this donor meeting took place. The Mitch McConnell/Eric Lycan “insider DC pac” known as Stand for Truth, was part of Team Cruz finance while Bush, Rubio, Christie, Fiorina et al were still in the race.
Does that sound like an unfriendly -outside of the establishment- status? Of course not. Why would the GOPe be fundraising for Ted Cruz in December/January if he was an outsider while all the other ‘establishment candidates’ were still in the race?
What this really reveals is more evidence of Ted Cruz being a GOPe insider; always part of the ‘establishment‘ from the outset. The “conservative Cruz-ruse” was simply a part of the vote ‘splitting’ strategy, all along.

However, the
campaign appears to have, yet again, gone into the land of illegality with
the following statement (via audio recording):
“If
you hit your max then we have a table for you that is the unlimited table,” Keet Lewis, a bundler for the
campaign and co-host of a Dec. 30 fundraiser in Dallas, says on the recording
provided to POLITICO. “It can
take corporate dollars, it can take partnership dollars, and that’s the super
PAC, Stand for Truth, so pick up some of that information.” (link) The
politico article goes on to share how and why the fundraising instructions
are illegal –read here– but
that’s not the part that might stick out to anyone who has been following the
2015/2016 shady campaign finances.
