In a recent Fox News interview, Trump explained that New York is overwhelmingly Democratic; the Post notes that more than two-thirds of his donations in the state have gone to Dems. “So what am I going to do—contribute to Republicans? One thing: I’m not stupid. Am I going to contribute to Republicans for my whole life when they get heat when they run against some Democrat and the most they can get is 1% of the vote?”
This is from a 2011 article titled:
“54% of Trump’s Donations Went to Democrats”
http://www.newser.com/story/117307/54-of-trumps-donations-went-to-democrats.html
Keep in mind, that means 46% of his contributions went to Republicans.
Even though, Democrats are in control, in a lot of places Trump does business.
In other words, he just admitted to giving legal bribes and to being an insufferable crony capitalist, but is WHOOOOOSHED right over your little economic noggin....
CoA: I couldn’t resist...
Thanks for that info!
In my humble opinion, Trump (especially as he IS so rich!) should donate to things he believes in .. and not just to buy political favors from corrupt politicians
just my opinion. Trump giving so much to candidates he supposedly does not agree with..... means either... he really DOES agree with their leftist politics.....or else he lacks any real sincerity in his political views ....He does not need to give bribes to make more money (something he has a genuine abundance of anyway).
Just my opinion. I will now thank Trump for at least raising the issue of O’s lack of constitutional qualification for the presidency. And I will now plan to vote against Trump if his name should ever appear on the ballot.
“The pursuit of money is the root of all evil” or something like that
Trump, bless him, has so much $$$ he does not have any excuse for compromising his supposedly values...by giving bribes to corrupt politicians...in the pursuit of even more money for himself. No excuse at all.
