Donald Trump Says He'll Spend 'What It Takes' To Win
The Huffington Post's Entertainment ^ | July 17, 2015 | Scott Conroy

LACONIA, N.H. -- How much is of his personal fortune is Donald Trump willing to drop on his 2016 presidential campaign? Whatever it takes to come out on top, he told The Huffington Post on Thursday.

“You saw my statement yesterday, so it’s pretty irrelevant,” Trump said, alluding to a press release in which his campaign placed his net worth in excess of $10 billion. “I’ll do what I have to do.”

Trump has already contributed at least $1.8 million of his own money to his nascent White House bid, which he launched last month, but that may be only the beginning.

Asked during a brief interview in the picturesque New Hampshire Lakes Region whether he might eventually spend up to $1 billion trying to win the presidency, Trump didn't dismiss the idea out of hand.

“It depends on what it takes,” he said.

Trump spoke during an interview at the small private airport here as he waited to call in to "The O’Reilly Factor" on The Fox News Channel after headlining an evening rally that drew several hundred people. He noted that he has risen to the top of most recent polls of Republican candidates and said he's gaining even more steam, as he feeds off his big crowds.

“I do see the enthusiasm,” he said. “I mean, forget it, right? The driver said, ‘I’ve never seen that before, and I’ve been in New Hampshire for 25 years.’ So it’s very nice to see the receptivity. People are tired of being ripped off.”(continued)

Narcissistic Personality disorder is a mental disorder.

Unless you're a medical doctor, specializing in psychiatry, who has personally examined Ted Cruz, you cannot possibly render such a diagnosis.

I'm 10 years younger, diabetic, and retired enlisted military, but not yet drawing Social Security.
Carson is a populist and NOT a conservative.
No thank you.
TED CRUZ, is the only one worth voting for.
I went into the military under Mr. Peanut, and the military was 99 percent for Reagan.
They listened to what he said, and SAW what he accomplished in California.
When I went back home on leave to Mississippi, the local people there were mostly FOR Reagan.
But there were a few DemocRATS voting DemocRAT, and they didn't want to talk about Mr' Peanut's 19 percent inflation rates and interest rates, as well as his climbing gas prices and heating oil prices.
So I disagree about your impression of HOW they perceived Ronald Reagan.

He tossed it out and claimed it was “FACT!!!”

He likes tossing crap and not backing it up, then running away when called on it after first blustering and spluttering.
Look at his posts 109 and 115.
He insists a “MACVSOG” captain was banned from here, blames 2ndDiv for it, but refuses to state the handle or provide proof this supposed poster existed other than his questionable insistence they exist..

Does anyone know who he is even talking about?

No, and furthermore, I don't know what Lumper20 is talking about when it comes to your medical disability.

I happen to know it's valid and serious, because I know you.

Someone had a Captain from CCN MACVSOG kicked off this site. Possibly you or a friend did as he would not back down to you or your gang.

That's a nasty bit of speculation.

When it came time to vote for Reagan (which I did with great pride), I was too young to consider his Democrat Record.
I was fresh out of the DemocRAT Brainwashing Institution known as the Public School System, and only about 2 years into the military.
So at that time, my analysis skills weren't that deep.

Now about Trump: he's a Chief Executive Officer.
You don't get there without acquiring great manipulative skills.
And maybe it's just another "DEAL" to increase his personal profits.
Where has most of his money gone to, when it comes to donations to politicians; to DemocRATS, or to Republicans ?
He probably DOES SEE where the country has gone, and it's possible he's had a "CHANGE OF HEART".
BUT ... DO YOU ... TRUST HIM ?

I DON'T !

I can certainly look it up. The Man’s real name was Miller. He was CO of CO A Exploitation Company CCN. They had a big OP in March 69 to Screen take the pressure off the Marines. Dewey Canyon.

Right Skippy.
And if you come back, and provide an actual handle, and it was banned due to an actual valid reason?
What then?
Will you apologize?

That’s in his office but I can’t remember if it’s his Texas Office or Senate office. I love the painting...speaks greatly of how he sees Reagan.

"Does anyone know who he is even talking about?"

I don't think HE knows what he's talking about. He sees people are onto him now, and he's babbling mindlessly to try and salvage the situation.

"And all that what Cruz did in college is on the Internet with names of who said it. They were in the same dorm with Cruz. That sure beats the Huffington Posts and politifacts rumors that is a site Your Cruz cannot stand."

He's gonna be your Cruz, too, when he takes the oath of office.

I just put some keywords into google, and the stupid claims you've been making are from leftwing sources. As expected.

Now what were you saying about 2ndDV's sources?

You're not even a half-decent troll. You're pathetic.
