Thanks for your thoughtful post, but I could never donate to anti-2ndA, anti-life, anti-liberty candidates like Andrew Cuomo, Schumer, et al.

Furthermore, as I mentioned, Donald gave MORE to Dems. Here’s more on that:

“..”While it has been an open secret for several years that Donald Trump was once a heavy Democratic donor, a deeper analysis of campaign records shows that the real estate billionaire’s contributions skewed even further left during the 2006 mid-term election, the crucial contest that put Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi in power and arguably helped pave the way for Barack Obama’s political agenda. (snip)

Overall in the 2006 election cycle, Trump and his son, Donald Trump Jr., donated $77,200 to Democrats versus only $24,250 on Republicans. Looking back to the 2004 cycle, the pair donated $40,500 to Democrats and only $17,250 to the GOP.(snip)”

We see this differently. If a businessman donated more to democrats in a conservative state such as Idaho or Wyoming than to republicans, that would mean something. For a businessman in a democrat state to donate mostly to democrats means nothing about their politics beyond that they are willing to pay to play (which is something). To me, this means that New York government is corrupt, not that Trump is a liberal.
