Who cares if it was from GS, It's a loan. After quite a bit of Googling among hard-right websites, I found a Twitter picture of someone holding what appears to be a financial form from the Cruz Campaign that's utterly arcane as to the terms of the loan, when it was publicly disclosed (as opposed to filed to the Senate), and, at best, completed just two weeks before the election date. I hope that isn't your "source". Once again, I don't know how his supporters would have taken this. | ||

His supporters wouldn't have cared. It's a loan. | ||

Criminals generally steal their guns from legal owners, buy guns through associates that can pass background checks, or obtain guns through private sales. All of which are definite issues. | ||
