Illary and Bill made $10M and paid 30% in taxes. She wants the middle class to pay 50% of their wages, in taxes.

Think about that, this November, libs.

And they donated 1,000,000 tax deductible to the Clinton Foundation which they will spend on themselves and 10% for charity maybe

The media almost have to support Hillary. At this point, she’s their main source of income.

Yes. Under the guise of “First Amendment rights” for corporations. Allowing contributions to pacs etc. to push favorite candidates.

This is great.

The MSM is reporting on Trump, for free.

They aren't getting a single penny from him, and they're keeping him in the headlines every day with their biased reporting.

No wonder they are angry.

Hillary, on the other hand, is doing the only thing she know how to: Pay to play.

She is paying them in hopes of getting benefits in terms of favorable reporting--something she learned from her tenure as Secretary of State. But now the shoe is on the other foot.

The MSM needs to take a page from Hillary's book and say: "She paid us all this money, and we didn't do anything for her in return." Yeah, right.

And here we have THE REAL REASON so many media execs have ordered their employees to spew anti-trump propaganda, vehemently.

Politics is a BI-MONEY business now, and the Big Execs expecte dto rake in THREE BILLION DOLLARS+ in ad revenue this cycle.

With Trump spending next to NOTHING, the revenues are going to be down mightily, which puts the JOBS of those very execs at risk.

"Trump, with his imprecise language as Newt calls it, is baiting the media into exposing their rabid Hillary bias. They might as well wear "I'm with her" hats." CNN staffers now required to wear THIS:

saw a Clinton ad at the watering hole a few weeks back.

bunch of folks were watching the television at the bar, and the ad came on.

Several at the bar basically shouted “look at that crooked b*tch on TV” and basically “F her”. Not really everyone, but I’m sure that had an affect on formulating an opinion to some who were eating their burgers.

People do not trust political ads, or politicians, they do not trust what they see on TV anymore, they know it’s all lies, and the more she plays these ads on TV, I think the more it hurts her with independents.

Some folks may not like Trump, but Clintons image and her voice (which was NOT in the ad, it was just a few still shots of her and a voice over) infuriate many people.

So I say she should double down and buy MORE ads.

Those reporters only vote in NYC, DC and CT.

the media thinks the “magic words” they speak are enough.

Yep.

After Desert Storm, the first President Bush had an approval rating of like 94%.

He had a press conference, and a reporter asked him a stupid question. President Bush noted that it was a stupid question.

Right then and there, you could see the hatred for him grow.

How dare he, a mere President, point out that a reporter was stupid!

They’ve been insufferable since.

“He’s their answer to ‘campaign finance reform’, and it almost makes me laugh.”

Oh, well said!

Alternate definition of Cui Bono: “Follow the money.”

Works with the Clinton’s, Obozos and the Never Trumpskis.

Analysis: "Trump campaign has spent $0 on television advertising

Trump probably will have over a half $ billion in funds by October. Gee, what is he going to do with all that money?

I can think of a few things none good for Hillary. :)

If I may be so bold as to offer advice for some of it; Hire poll watchers for November in precincts where there won't already be volunteers.
