Media thinks it’s a scandal that Trump campaign tends to contract with Trump businesses
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/23/16 | Dan Calabrese

Because they know nothing about how successful people get things done.

First of all, when I say the media think something is a scandal - even though no one is using the word “scandal” - here’s why I say it. You will see headlines and stories about things that seem quite unremarkable. Candidate contracts with vendor for services. Person uses certain word. Public official makes comment about this or that. The reporting may appear very matter-of-fact, but what you have to look at is the news judgment that led the media to mention it at all.

For instance, we told you earlier in the week about a New York Times story that mentions a Republican congressman quoting from Scripture on the House floor, then informs you that “he has not apologized.” Factual, sure, but why mention that he has not apologized unless you think there’s some reason he should? This is how they do bias these days, by carefully picking their facts to support their preconceived notions.

He used (1) his own money, (2) his own stuff (jet, etc) and (3) his own people, to fund and run his campaign.

So the problem here is what?

Why should they complain? TRUMP financed his own campaign.

Then they should really have a problem with the billions in contracts that Hillary's State Department gave to Clinton Foundation donors. smdh

What are they crying about now? The man used his own money and other things to fund his own campaign...we supporters have been donating to him right along, he hasn't asked us to, we just have been...

At least he's not selling secrets to China for foreign Countries bribes now is he?

I wonder when the press is going to make a connection between those being paid by the Clinton Crime Family Foundation and whom coincidentally work for the Hitlery campaign. Even her attorney, Kendall, is an attorney paid by the CCFF. Silly me, I forgot, she is a dem so she gets a pass on this. Even if there were an audit of the CCFF, I am sure the payroll records would be missing past the pendency of the inquiry.

Did you actually read the article? It is very pro Trump. I think the F U was unwarranted.

When they asked Boss Tweed if he used his position to reward his friends, he replied, “What am I supposed to do? Reward my enemies?”

It is obvious that the Left does not understand how to do anything LEE-gully!

Trump is just following the rules set up by the authorities.

A poll from CNN just flashed across my Twitter feed. Apparently 69% of people think Trump should cut all business ties while he is campaigning. He’s doing nothing illegal, so why should he?

The man spent $50 million of his own money. If he wants to have the events at his properties, go right on ahead. He’s going to do them somewhere, so why not his own properties?

There “is” no problem. This is the MSM trying to get something negative to stick to Trump.

If Trump is self financing his campaign, he can do what he pleases with his own money.

This reeks of desperation on the part of the DNC, the Romnoid branch of the GOP, and their socialist propaganda media outlets.

Controlling the venue and the subcontractors also means less chance of sabotage.

He wants only number one quality work and service. Where else would Donald Trump go except to Donald Trump?? ;)

But it is not illegal,in contrast to Shilary who accepted tens of millions from other governments while she was Sec. Of State. However, the Democrat media is desperately trying to manufacture a scandle out of a legal campaign practice that many candidates have used.
