This has been floating around on Twitter. Of course the Trump haters, the #NeverTrump crowd (mostly bitter Cruz supporters whose Tweets are indistinguishable from leftists) are gloating over this. No way to know for sure if Manafort said this because we are left with anonymous sources. Regardless, Trump has done well without the traditional ads, but I think he'll need ads to counter the hit ads that the DNC and Hillary will bombard the airway with.

If true, go figure the RNC would starve him of funds.

——The admission suggests that Trump will be far more dependent on the GOP brass for money than he has led voters to believe, but it’s consistent with his reliance on the Republican National Committee to provide a ground game in battleground states.-——

How silly of his die hard supporters here to believe Trump would never take DC money....and run his campaign only by self funding...

Yes, lots of you did....in post after post after post....

I keep reading how he was going to destroy the GOPe when all along he would eventually have to work with the very people some many here were thinking He would kill off....

He will need every penny the RNC and big donors can pony up to beat cankles....

Methinks this is BS. Trump’s camp is never going to truly leak any potential weakness or state that they are low on cash ever.

Second hand sources about what Manafort discussed? Sound like BS to me.

Who pays attention to politics during the summer? Just the media and politics groupies (like us I guess).

You can donate to Trump’s campaign at his website. I would rather do that than give to the RNC. Perhaps if the RNC cleans up its act, I will donate to them in the future, but not now, not while their policy is to give the Democrats what they want.

They know they’re not going to be on TV unless they get more money? Ridiculous.

I think he is false flagging to lull the ‘Rats into a false sense of confidence. In August he will send in the B-52’s and lay waste to Hillary’s campaign

All this recent crap has been coming out of Paul Manafort’s mouth, not DJT’s.

Manafort must still be cashing checks from Romney also.

It seems Trump himself has refuted the story. From his twitter feed:

“Don’t believe the biased and phony media quoting people who work for my campaign. The only quote that matters is a quote from me!”

And of course the Cruzlims will refuse to ask themselves where greasy Felito would have obtained his money.

Trump prefers a mean and lean operation.

He won the nomination having spent less than $50 million.

Trump doesn’t want a top heavy campaign because that’s not how he does it and he hates to waste money.

And spending lots of money is no guarantee of success.

Jeb blew through $140 million dollars in the autumn and winter with nothing to show for it.

Plus, with Trump’s universal name recognition, money is not as critical a consideration as it would be for someone not as well known.

Since Trump didn’t raise money for the primaries this is a nothing burger

Trump is raising money now for RNC so they will be footing a part of general expenses. Then there are matching funds from gov. Plus Super Pac funds

This is the delusional set trying to find a reason to be happy

Trump will simply use Twitter and the media to get his message out...no need for advertising at this point.

...and most of Hillaries ads will likely backfire on her.
