Owe, no!

2016 hopeful Scott Walker has tens of thousands of dollars in credit card debt, owing money to a list of banks and stores including Sears and Barclays, a new report alleges.

The Wisconsin conservative Republican governor owes between $10,000 and $100,000 to credit card companies, The Daily Beast reported Wednesday, which cited Walker’s latest state financial disclosure forms, filed in January.

> Why doesn’t Trump go after Jeb?

Trump has the fearlessness of someone who doesn’t intend to win. I suspect he will ultimately endorse Jeb.

Trump personally went bankrupt?

Corporately.

But I recall reading that at one point at least he had a negative net worth.

So I promptly started telling people that I was richer than Donald Trump.

There is a story in “The Art of the Deal” where he tells Ivana that some homeless man is $900 million dollars richer than he was, at that moment....

Life happens.

Between $10,000 and $100,000 in credit card debt? - Well; which is it? Ten Thousand or One Hundred Thousand?

He "owes between $10,000 and $100,000", and the headline makes it "tens of thousands", when it could be $10,001?

I recently re-did my kitchen. I took advantage of a credit card offer of 12 months of 0% interest on purchases made in the first month, and put $10K of my expenses on that card. It will be paid off by the end of the 12 months, and I will have paid no interest.

I’m just saying, this link may be right, this link may have incorrect information.

But according to that link, well just see for yourself.

My point is, all the candidates in the GOP need to stop trying to find something to tear down Donald Trump, and start saying what they are going to do themselves, to make America turn back around and grow once again.

Jobs, in America. And stop bringing in so many illegals.

Those are ideas Trump stood up for right away, and they are very important.

Maybe those ideas, are the reason Trump has caught on so strongly.

Just saying.

Some have a grave misunderstanding about what happens when a company files bankruptcy. The laws are different than from personal bankruptcy laws. I think a lot of them do a reorganization. It doesn’t mean they are losing everything they own.

For most, that would be a flag against a security clearance.

Tina Brown and Daily Beast equal more NYC media wonks that manipulate and play the rest of the USA as puppets of their politics and urban culture.

I’m all for Walker as well.

All I’m saying is, the GOP needs to avoid sinking into any sort of strategy of tearing down Trump to promote challengers.

Sure, compete. But not by just going after Trump. Trump has made his positions clear.

What the competitors need to do, is to say what they will do to bring back American jobs, and to control our borders.

(or other issues, if they choose)

But what will they do?

Now this is interesting, and I think typical of the intellect of some of the Trump supporters...I mean really, "blows goat nuts?" Rinse Penis? Did you have to repeat 6th grade dude?

But more to the point, you MISSED the point. I challenged the assertion that Walker "smeared Trump." I did not support Walker - tho he's on my list - in any way. I asked a question. You threw a middle school hissy fit. And BTW, Trump has said some amnesty type things related to those who come here to work...oops...sorry to burst your teeny little bubble....

I was just making a point wi th my post.

I like Scott Walker, but I also like Donald Trump and I don’t want to see him torn down, so someone else can gain.

All I am saying is, we need to be about ideas.

Sure I admit I support Trump (basically because Trump has said he’s for American jobs, and for controlling immigration)

Nobody else has said they are for American jobs, and most won’t even say they’re for controlling immigration - Ted Cruz is solidly on the right side on that issue.

Both of our parties, are completely sold out to China.

That is a big issue. Trump has taken a stand, and he alone appears to be saying we need to be for America.

That is what I am for.

So I’m supporting Trump. If others share his views, I sure wish they would speak up.
