Ted Cruz Reaches Out To GOP Establishment For Help In Hopes Of Defeating Trump

It started two weeks ago with several former Jeb Bush campaign staffers joining the Ted Cruz operation. Then just days earlier, it was the high profile hiring of Jeb Bush’s brother Neil to help stem the financial bleeding of the Cruz campaign. Neil Bush is said to be the newly-anointed primary link between the old-guard, GOP Establishment fundraising apparatus, and the Cruz campaign.
And now today we find out Ted Cruz will be sitting down one-one-one with Jeb Bush himself.

ABOVE: Although his recent cozying up to the GOP oligarchs has some among Ted Cruz’s supporters both confused and concerned, the Texas senator appears not to care. He feels his campaign needs the cash and the influence of the GOP Establishment if he is to have any hope of defeating Donald Trump.

Mr. Cruz’s response regarding the news of Neil Bush joining his campaign was to say he is, “thrilled.”

DC Whispers was among the very first to indicate the newly-developing financial troubles that now has the Cruz campaign so concerned. While millions have and continue to be raised, the campaign has also spent nearly as much as it has taken in, leaving it scrambling to raise yet more funds just a week out from the March 15, winner-take-all Super Tuesday primary elections.

It is that constant hand reaching into the pockets of its supporters that has some saying, ENOUGH and pulling back from Team Cruz. That drop in the smaller donation rate is said to have been a significant factor in the Cruz campaign reaching out to the Bush operation which prior to its defeat, had raised nearly $140 million dollars between the campaign and its affiliated Super PACs.

Team Cruz is now hoping to have access to some of those same Jeb Bush funding sources – namely the elite of the elite among the Republican Establishment. It is a scenario that has Senator Cruz indicating to this same establishment he is willing to forgive, forget, and most importantly to him now, take its money to further his own campaign.
