Ted Cruz Sending Donation Mail Disguised as Summonses

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Ted Cruz’s Texas Senatorial campaign has sent hundreds of thousands of mailers seeking donations that are meant to look like official county summons, a high-ranking campaign official confirmed to Newsweek.

The brown envelopes read “SUMMONS ENCLOSED- OPEN IMMEDIATELY” in large black letters, and have a return address of “official county summons.”

While the letter inside the envelope is a donation form for the Cruz campaign, there is some fear that certain voters may be confused by the mailer and think that they are required by law to pay a fee.


“Received this for my 88-year-old grandma,” wrote Sean Owen of Austin on Twitter. “Says it's a summons from Travis County, but is actually asking for money for Ted Cruz . Did your campaign authorize this? Is this even legal? Shame on you.”

So typically Cruz. So typically repugnant.

5. I like that...and instead of the filthy Cruz fake demand, pull out that tweet of Shitler calling him

a liar.

4. Didn't the Cruz campaign pull this crap last time?

Seems awfully familiar somehow

Cruz should be pilloried - the whole lot of the corrupt Vichy GOP should be pilloried.
