Ted Cruz Seeks Donations From Pro-Immigration Elites–What Is He Promising Them? Washington Watcher March 15, 2016, 9:17 am With Ted Cruz and Donald Trump as the only Republicans who have won more than one state, many in the GOP establishment are settling for Cruz. The Washington Post profiled some of these supporters recently, “Most of the people that I know would not have been naturally with Ted,” said Charles Foster, a Houston lawyer who backed Bush in the presidential race and Cruz’s opponent in the Republican primary for his Senate seat in 2012. “. . . Some are reluctant because that’s not where they were to begin with, and some are still sitting on their hands.” The establishment world is hardly foreign to the Texas Republican. Cruz; his wife, Heidi; and his campaign chairman, Chad Sweet, all worked for George W. Bush and are making overtures to people who supported Jeb Bush, Cruz backers said. Foster said Cruz called him. . . . [Ted Cruz finds new allies in GOP establishment he rails against, by Katie Zezima, March 14, 2016] While the Post highlighted the difference between Cruz’s public appeal to blue-collar workers and private appeal to high money donors, it ignored the real inconsistentcy between Foster and Cruz’s pose. Foster is an immigration attorney who served as an immigration policy advisor to both President Bush and Obama and has contributed to pro-amnesty Democrats like Luis Gutierrez and Robert Menendez, and was chairman of the (apparently defunct) pro-amnesty Americans for Immigration Reform. He has gone as far as defending President Obama’s executive DREAMer amnesty as “good policy” that is “clearly. . . within his legal authority” in an op-ed. [Obama takes common-sense step for dreamers, By Charles C. Foster, Houston Chronicle, June 25, 2012] While Cruz makes unfounded claims about what Trump said in his off the record talk with the NY Times Editorial board about immigration, I want to know what Cruz told this pro-amnesty immigration lawyer when he begged for his money.

If true, this is another bit of evidence that proves that the talk about the establishment hates Cruz is a big fat lie. Si vis pacem, para bellum Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. There are no Carthaginian terrorists. President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people. --Clint Eastwood "I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within." -- General Douglas MacArthur
While Cruz talks a good game to the sucker rubes, the people he has quietly and stragegically surrounded himself with and promoted signal his true eventual intent which is all la raza and reconquista. God damn the two faced son of a bitch to hell. He's another spoiled kid who wants to be president.
I think it just proves they hate Cruz less than they fear the Trump mob.
Cruz's family experienced the direct consequences of the Cuban/communist state establishment. When you hear family members, like I did, telling stories about escaping the red terror it leaves a deep impression that causes one to consider and align oneself with the conservation of America's foundational ideological principles. Trump can't even articulate those principles. That's not surprising given he inherited a fortune rendered from prostitution.
" many in the GOP establishment are settling for Cruz. "
