RAFAEL CRUZ OFFICIALLY "THE ESTABLISHMENT" CHOICE
GOP "Establishment" propaganda rag National Review endorses the Cuban-Canadian rat, commands other candidates to drop out, & threatens voters to fall in line "or else"
>Dear GOP: Unite behind Ted Cruz or Deserve Your Fate
http://archive.is/49T9f
>We must unite behind @tedcruz or else. That's basically it.

As a bonus, when you view the article on the National Review site, you get a pop-up which says
>Wait! Don’t Go! Take NR’s ‘Brokered Convention’ Survey
which includes a collage of Fiorina, Ryan, Trump, Haley, Kasich (by the way did you know his father was a mailman?), El Rato, and Mitt Romney in the center. pic related
Unbelievable. Even their pop-ups are GOP propaganda.
>You want a brokered convention, don't you?
>How about Romney, you wouldn't mind if he swooped in and saved the day, would you?
How will Ted Cruz fight "the establishment", when he's been tied to them all his life and are the ones helping him get elected?

If Trump's immigration policies are so harsh and "problematic" then why in the hell are they backing someone who claims to adopted them (and acts like he came up with them)? People should throw this shit in the GOPe's face as well as Cruz and see who buckles first.
Somewhere Trump is laughing his ass off since this puts the GOPe in a bind now. How can they back Cruz when he's agreeing with all the supposedly inflammatory stuff Trump said? Does this mean the GOPe agrees with that or is it because Cruz is bought?

furthermore, anyone supporting rafael is delusional if they think he's more electable than trump
if i were hillary, i'd just bring up el rato's father as evidence of cruz being a far-right kook who thinks he's anointed by God to defend the Holy Constitution
>According to Breitbart, Ted’s father, Pastor Rafael Cruz gave a sermon last year at an Irving Texas megachurch that helped elect Cruz to the U.S. Senate.
>Rafael Cruz indicated that his son was among the evangelical Christians who are anointed as ‘kings’ to take control of all sectors of society, an agenda commonly referred to as the ‘Seven Mountains’ mandate, and ‘bring the spoils of war to the priests’, thus helping to bring about a prophesied ‘great transfer of wealth’, from the ‘wicked’ to righteous gentile believers.”
that aside, once again
CRUZ CANNOT EXPLAIN HIS SUPPORT OF THE TPA
as the vid related reveals
>I asked [Ted's father] about his son’s vote FOR giving President Obama Fast Track Authority to help him pass the Trans-Pacific Partnership bill.
>He made the most preposterous argument that by giving Obama this power, it actually gave Congress better control over – Obama???
>I got to ask Ted Cruz’s wife that if her husband really was the greatest supporter of the U.S. Constitution ever, why then did Ted vote for Fast Track – which is NOTHING but a blatant end run around the Constitution that directly violates the protections against illegal trade deals unambiguously built into the Constitution.
>She mimicked Rafael Cruz’s earlier talking points – ignoring the Constitutional implications of Fast Track – she deftly swerved off into the never-never land that this actually gave Congress more control over Obama.

hannity has also been pushing the "cruz is anti-establishment" narrative in every other sentence but in a more subtle way: he packages cruz w/ trump EVERY TIME trump is mentioned. he refers to them as "the insurgent candidates". it's very sneaky, but i know what he's doing. he's trying to separate cruz from the pack by lumping him w/ trump, so that by comparison the conservative goyim can easily be tricked into picking the more pure "conservative Constitutionalist" of the two "outsiders". without fail, if trump is mentioned, he makes sure cruz is also mentioned as being "on the same side". his audiences hear that several hundred times a day and just accept it.

he actually always was an establishment shill. all you have to do is look at his donors. his voting record is very conservative, but his peers didnt like him not bc he wouldnt "play ball" in the sense that he wouldnt go along w/ their policies… its bc he wouldnt wait his turn and stepped all over everyone so he could run for president way before he was supposed to. he just spins that as being "anti-establishment", but between his connections to big banks, the Bushes, the CFR, his support of TPA and him sharing the same donor network as all of the establishment candidates, it's pretty clear he just wants the conservative Evangelical vote. but he will push globalist agendas under the guise of a Constitutional scholar. it's all very slick
but besides that, he is in fact now an establishment candidate. they've thrown their full weight and support behind him. meaning, whether he likes it or not, the establishment is pumping money into getting him elected. so if trump is establishment, and el rato is an outsider, why is the establishment backing him? how can he fight the people who are getting him elected? if they ask him for a favor once elected, do you think he can say no?

there's no point in having a fiscally conservative voting record if you have big bank and globalist connections and donors
he's an opportunist. the establishment needs his conservative Evangelical voter base, and he needs the establishment to herd the entire party behind him.
his principles and voting record are worthless once his donors call in a favor. notice how he rails against the "Washington cartel", yet has no problem accepting tens of millions of dollars from special interests and SuperPACS.
the establishment just commanded everyone to drop out and support cruz, and threatened voters to vote for cruz "or else". will rato disavow establishment support because "the people are tired of washington insiders telling them how to think"; he's "not one of them"; and "will fight them once he's in office"? no. of course not. he's gonna milk the shit out of this.

Exactly, no one can figure out how the GOPe missed the voter anger this season and the hate people now have for the "establishment". Well the truth is if the average idiot can see it then they can too. They saw it and planned for it. They simply hedged their bets, the hedge itself served a dual purpose as a camouflage as well.
They ran their 1st lane Establishment candidate Yeb. If he wins, great. If not, no problem because Rubio is there. Ideally Rubio was just training for another election, getting his name out there, doing some debates but if he's needed he's there. But, if the anger was so bad that neither Yeb nor Rubio could make it then that's fine too because we have our GOPe Approved Anti-Establishment Candidate® Ted Cruz.
So that covered the nomination, then during the general of course whichever patsy was "chosen" by the voters with a healthy dose of Fox Jews manipulation and narrative pushing would have lost and Hillary would have been elected to continue the Obama Agenda.

Heidi & Ted Cruz Exposed
https://tiburoncalifornia.wordpress.com/2015/12/04/heidi-and-ted-cruz-exposed-an-inconvenient-truth/
Heidi Cruz was:
“SPECIAL” Assistant to Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick? Do you know WHO he is??? Mitt Romney put Zoellick on his team and caught great criticism over it but we didn’t hear about that through Fox or any one else now did we! Google it!! Just type in Romney and Robert B Zoellick.
Robert Bruce Zoellick is a former U.S. trade representative, deputy secretary of state, president of the World Bank, and vice chairman of Goldman Sachs (2006-2007). As U.S. trade representative, Zoellick played a key role in the passage of the Central American Free Trade Agreement, the U.S.-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement, the Jordan Free Trade Agreement, and the restoration of fast track negotiating authority via the Trade Act of 2002. He was also a top U.S. negotiator during the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) negotiations that lead to the formation of the World Trade Organization (WTO).””U.S. Trade Representative Prior, Zoellick was appointed United States Trade Representative and assumed office on February 7, 2001. As a member Bush’s Cabinet, he served with the rank of Ambassador. Zoellick is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, as well as the Trilateral Commission, and was one of the signers of the January 26, 1998, Project for the New American Century (PNAC) letter to President William Jefferson Clinton.[10][11]

At our upcoming Annual Meetings and at the UN Climate Change Conference in Bali this December, I hope to outline a portfolio of ways the World Bank Group can help integrate the needs of development and low carbon growth. We need to focus particularly on the interests of developing countries, so that we can meet the challenge of climate change without slowing the growth that will help overcome poverty

there's not much chance of losing when you're betting on all the horses
on the topic of brokered conventions: a lot of cuckservatives, especially right-wing talk radio hosts, are hoping that will be their fail-safe if their cruz surge falls short of winning the nomination outright. so the narrative they're pushing now in preparation is
>there's nothing wrong w/ a brokered convention
>it's not "brokered", it's an "open" convention
>it's in the rules
>it's been done before
>anything to stop trump reflects the will of the party so it's fair game
etc etc.
they're mentally preparing everyone by brainwashing them with this day after day
what they don't realize is the precedent this sets. do they not realize that if this becomes acceptable, any time one faction of the party wants to throw a tantrum bc they can't muster enough votes for their own candidate, the GOP will simply force a brokered convention every single time. once you open this up, if i were running the GOP, i'd flood the field with 30 candidates and fund them as long as i could, and then every single time it would go to brokered convention where i could install 1 of those 30 i backed.
they're willing to accept this preposterous level of manipulation just because wah wah i dont like trump and i dont have influence anymore because nobody's obeying me wah wah
but all of this wouldnt matter anyway, because if it gets to that point, what's left of the party will be irreversibly ripped to shreds and they can kiss their cushy DC jobs goodbye

I'm convinced Heidi Cruz is the key to Lyin' Rafael's true purpose
He is the front-man who co-opts the Tea Party / grassroots / Constitutionalist / Evangelical demographics, which the GOP specifically identified and targeted after Romney lost. They knew they needed this ~4-5 million voting bloc who stays home unless the candidate is super conservative.
Why do you think CPAC suddenly changed its target audience, and then shilled Mark Levin nonstop, not to mention Glenn Beck for fuck's sake. I mean, Glenn Beck, really? That's going to be the face of your movement? Well, they're not trying to be legitimate and attract fresh blood… they just need that voting bloc. Levin and Beck definitely has them captive. This is who they're convinced they needed to control. Cruz is the perfect candidate for them
Cruz himself plays the game pretty well, that's why he's a solid conservative on paper. it's all the people around him who need to be documented so we can confirm the full extent of what they're planning w/ him

A prominent Houston businessman, Neil Bush joined Cruz's fundraising team along with his wife, Maria.
Cruz, who has long been one of the top fundraisers in the crowded GOP field, added 13 new bundlers who will help him raise the cash to compete with Donald Trump, who is largely self-funding his campaign. Also joining as new Cruz fundraisers are Don Huffines, a Texas state senator formerly backing Rand Paul, and Dick Weekley, a Republican powerbroker in Texas politics.

IT'S THE HEADLINE ON DRUDGE RIGHT NOW
Ted Cruz, A Bush By Another Name
by Roger Stone
http://dailycaller.com/2016/03/10/ted-cruz-a-bush-by-another-name/
Neil Bush, the son of President George H. W. Bush, who defrauded U.S. taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars in the savings and loan scam, and later peddled influence for the Chinese government, (who plied him with Chinese prostitutes) has formally endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president. You can’t make this stuff up.
This endorsement says much. Since the other, more politically involved Bush men have a distinct dislike for Mr. Cruz, I suppose Neil Bush is better than no Bush. Let’s look at the wonderful memories that Neil Bush has left us with. First there is that little banking charade he steered us into back in 1985.
Back in 1981, Neil Bush was director of Silverado Savings and Loan in Denver, Colorado. Neil was very generous, lending millions to pals Kenneth Good and William Walters. The $250 million in loans went into default, S.S. & L. went bankrupt and had to be seized by the Feds. Neil Bush walked away with a cool $100,000 personal loan which he never paid back. Documents released by the Office of Thrift Supervision detailed the conflict of interest charges against Neil. Federal regulators described him as “unqualified, and untrained” to be a director of a financial institution.
It seems Neil miscalculated just how much he knew about directing a mega financial institution like Silverado Savings and Loan. By the summer of 1990, the cost of bailing out the savings and loan industry would cost at least $500 billion! Neil’s Silverado adventure cost U.S. taxpayers $1.5 billion.
Neil actually got fraudulent loans they knew would fail, use the money to short the stock and crash the bank and collect millions according to CIA cut-out and Bush family associate Al Martin in his seminal work The Conspirators: The Secrets of an Iran-Contra Insider.
Oh, and let’s not forget his lies to the press immediately after John Hinckley Jr. allegedly shot Ronald Reagan. At first he and his wife admitted to knowing the Hinckley family, that they donated a lot of money to the Bush endeavors … yet the next day he recanted and claimed he actually didn’t know them, and wasn’t even sure if they donated any money! In fact John Hinckley Sr. give heavily to George Bush Sr., in 1964, 1966, 1970 and 1980 and Neil and his wife were scheduled to dine with John Hinckley Jr.’s older brother the very night Jr. allegedly shot Reagan.
This is the same Neil Bush who was sent Asian prostitutes by the Chinese conglomerate that was using Neil to peddle influence to the U.S. government for a multi-billion dollar Semi-conductor deal, according to his own deposition.
The Bush-Cruz connection is clear. Ted was George W.’s brain when he ran for president. A top policy adviser, Ted maneuvered for Solicitor General in Bush World but settled for a plum at the Federal Trade Commission. Ted’s a Bush man with deep ties to the political and financial establishment. Ted and wife Heidi brag about being the first “Bush marriage” – they met as Bush staffers. Cruz was an adviser on legal affairs while Heidi was an adviser on economic policy and eventually director for the Western Hemisphere on the National Security Council under Condoleezza Rice. Condi helped give us the phony war in Iraq. Heidi then went to the Bush U.S. Trade Representative as a top deputy to U.S. Trade Rep. Robert Zoellick, who wired Heidi’s membership in the Council on Foreign Relations and job at Goldman Sachs. The bailed-out bank then loaned Cruz $1 million secretly to finance his Senate race. Cruz would also borrow an undisclosed $1 million loan from Citicorp.
Cruz has become quite adroit at saying one thing while his history shows him doing the other. Rather than the outsider he claims to be, Ted Cruz is the ultimate insider, former top Bush 41 policy aide and globalist, Ivy Leaguer, and establishment insider. There is no better example of this than Calgary Ted’s actions surrounding the big Wall Street banks and their secret funding of his political ascension. Oil and Gas Millions fund this guy Cruz has been gorging at the table of the ultimate insider of all insiders – Goldman Sachs and Citibank. His TPP support is the proof in the pudding.
Cruz and his establishment puppet masters are engaged in an aggressive strategy against Trump. The false narrative of course being that Cruz is the outsider while Trump is the insider. Nothing could be farther from the truth. In its most simplistic terms – the power elite have no leverage over Trump – nothing. Cruz, on the other hand, is the establishment’s quisling, spawned by the Bushes and controlled by Wall Street, who became a strident “outsider” only four years ago.

Choosing between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, as Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) once said, is like choosing between being "shot or poisoned."
But after Trump's near-dominant showing on Super Tuesday, Graham appears to have made his choice.

pic related is a wider view of the site - he's hitting all the right places to stop rafael's perceived "momentum
"Ted Bush" should be memed into existence. Rafael's establishment ties are becoming more visible now that all the donors and globalists are publicly getting behind him… might as well nail him to the Bush name. Since public acknowledgment of the "establishment" supporting Cruz is becoming accepted, it opens an opportunity to red-pill by planting the seeds of doubt:
Not only is Rafael acceptable to the establishment now that they want him to win, but if you look deeper, his policies and connections were always acceptable to the establishment. What they didn't like is how he conducted himself; he was a opportunist who would throw people under the bus and didn't wait his turn. Being "too principled" didn't matter too much.
The guy hardly ever got anything done… mostly show votes and Supreme Court wins to pad his record. He was overzealous and added too much flourish when he made a big show of "taking a stand" for his conservative cult. It was too much and unnecessary for most in Congress. It's like, okay little Cuban guy, you made your point, no need to call me a liar for the cameras so Mark Levin can suck your dick tomorrow. I don't talk about your fracking and banking lobbyists, so don't overdo it.
But he still plays the game. He still takes near-zero-interest loans from big banks and special interest superPAC money to get into office. He still consults w/ Bushes, career politicians, special interests and "free" trade, open border, CFR-style globalists. People need to be bombarded w/ the glaring conflicts of interest. El Rato should not be able to escape who he is any longer.

>GOP Majority Voters in Primary are Wayyyyyy Beneath Cruz, So Says Cruz
>Calling GOP frontrunner supporters "low information" disengaged voters, Ted Cruz's insinuation reeks of all the reasons America knows "the status quo has got to go." The arrogance of career politicians is something at which the rest of us chuckle, but Cruz's latest dig strays from humorous into downright nasty. Cruz is right, though - independent, America-first, commonsense conservatives supporting Donald Trump ARE "low information" when it comes to having any information on Cruz's ability to expand the conservative movement, beat Hillary Clinton, unify and lead the nation.
>* Where's information on any Cruz success whilst in his short, half-term U.S. Senate seat, proving his resume's advantage over another career politicians's lawyerly executive inexperience that includes never having created a single private sector job, but boasting of his constitutional law teacher creds?

Let's go deeper:
Ted Cruz Worked With Religious Right Founder Paul Weyrich, To Elect George W. Bush
http://archive.is/8G7Jt
As Goeglein recounted in his book Man In The Middle - An Inside Account of Faith and Politics in the George W. Bush Era (2011, B&H Publishing Group), with book forward written by Karl Rove, George W. Bush had already sent a powerful message to conservative evangelicals that he was theirs when, during the December 14, 1999 Iowa Republican Primary Debate Bush stated that his favorite philosopher was "Christ, because he changed my heart."
But, reveals Goeglein, then-Bush campaign aide Ted Cruz helped play the inside track, by arranging a meeting between Cruz, Goeglein, and Paul Weyrich. Starting on page 34, Goeglein begins,
"In addition to the strong support Governor Bush was garnering in those early primaries, he was also gaining the support of key social conservatives in a systematic but off-the-record outreach effort where I was spending lots of my time. One of the most important such meetings occurred a month after I arrived in Austin. My friend and fellow campaign aide Ted Cruz, a former Supreme Court Clerk for Chief Justice William Rehnquist and later a candidate for the U.S. Senate from Texas, phoned me one day and told me Paul Weyrich, one of the leading traditional conservatives in the country, was in Austin and wanted to have breakfast to discuss Governor Bush's record and the campaign. Ted asked me to join him. Paul, who later became a close friend and ally, had a reputation for blunt talk and core, unswerving convictions, and so I knew the meeting would be foundational to our coalition efforts in the Bush campaign.
We met for a breakfast all of us thought would last an hour or so. It ended up going nearly three hours. Paul queried me and ted on nearly every issue possible in a spirited, lively session. I came to see the repartee among the three of us was rooted in common principles and values; and by the end of the breakfast, Paul told us, in all his years of following presidential politics, he had never felt more comfortable with the core convictions of a candidate on the issue he most believed in, the sanctity of every human life, the foundation of the traditional family, and American sovereignty. The breakfast ended in unity and common purpose. This kind of one-on-one outreach was a cornerstone of the first Bush campaign, and conservative support was one of the keys to victory."
In other words, per Goeglein's account, Ted Cruz helped create the Bush Presidency. It's astonishing for an almost endless range of reasons, not the least of which is that it doubly true as well - Cruz also served on the Bush campaign's elite legal team that fought the legal battles over the vote recount in Florida which in turn led to the wildly controversial Bush v. Gore Supreme Court ruling that installed George W. Bush in the presidency.
But Cruz' ties to Paul Weyrich are nonetheless even more jaw-dropping than that considering who Weyrich was. How did Cruz earn the friendship of the man who helped create the Heritage Foundation, the Moral Majority, and the American Legislative Exchange Council, ALEC ?

Ted Cruz, an Ambitious Conservative With Sharp Elbows
http://archive.is/nXdc8
" WASHINGTON — Back in late 2000, Ted Cruz found himself with one of the hottest tickets in town. As a former clerk to Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, Mr. Cruz, a junior aide on George W. Bush’s presidential campaign, had scored a seat inside the Supreme Court for the oral arguments in Bush v. Gore, which would decide the election.
But when his superiors asked Mr. Cruz to give up his spot to Donald Evans, a close friend of Mr.Bush’s and the campaign’s chairman, Mr. Cruz initially balked, refusing to hand over his ticket. He backed down only after an angry phone call from a senior staff member. But the incident, which a Cruz adviser declined to discuss, has become lore.
To those who knew him as a young domestic policy adviser in Mr. Bush’s headquarters in Austin, Tex., the moment was classic Cruz — reflecting a brilliant and unusually ambitious upstart who chafed at orders from superiors and often rubbed people the wrong way but always saw himself destined for a lofty place in history.

Mr Romney said in a Facebook post that the only way to nominate a Republican is to have an open convention, in which party officials choose the nominee. He campaigned with Governor John Kasich in Ohio but said voting for Mr Cruz is the only way to stop "Trumpism". "

Cruz Finance Committee Member Neil Bush Admits He's Supporting Him For 'Strategic' Reasons
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1603/19/smer.01.html
SMERCONISH: Neil, is yours a full throated endorsement of Ted Cruz or are you engaged in strategic voting?
" BUSH: I'm engaged in strategic participatory politics. I made it clear that Ted Cruz wasn't my first choice. I admired and was heartbroken that my brother Jeb's lack of success. He had a track record and the temperament that proves he could be a great leader.[LOL!] Ted Cruz wasn't my second or third choice. I don't particularly like his style.
He went to Washington to be disruptive and he clearly did that and he has lost a lot of friends in Washington. He'll rebuild friendships when he becomes president. So mine is a strategic move to try to bring our party together. I think it would be a disaster to put up the most flawed candidate as the head of our ticket. Donald Trump has proven - yes, go ahead, please."

REPUBLICAN DONORS TIRED AFTER GIVING $520M TO FAILED CANDIDATES

" So far, donors have funneled more than $520 million collectively into campaigns and outside groups supporting Republican presidential candidates who have now dropped out — and the primaries are far from over.
Only U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Trump remain in the Republican presidential primary, and they’re aggressively courting those who once wrote checks to their opponents. But some GOP megadonors with millions of dollars to spend haven’t selected a new date to the presidential dance. Others are on the arms of their second and third choices. "

You realize there's only Trump or hillary? Mistake by Trump was not ridding of rafael for not being eligible. If rafael is run, the result will be Hillary from splitting votes with an independent Trump run or Hillary from her suing to disqualify rafael.
