What really pisses me off is that one of the Indian tribes offered to pay for it in exchange for expanding gambling, but Walker turned them down.

He fell for the lies put out by Mitch McConnell over the TPP.

I’ll bet not one Freeper would have fallen for that lie.

So disappointed in Walker. Before he began his campaign, I was all for him due to what was seen in Wisconsin. And to some degree, the same for Christie. Needless to say Christie was struck thru early on at the time of Romney and Christie shenanigans. At this time, there is virtually no one who might be trusted other than a chosen few. That the man might wish to hitch his star to a winner might be the reason as he sees Walker and his decline. I trust Donald will know the ropes and does as he sees fit. If the man is honest, and of accomplishment it’s a ‘feather’ in Donald’s cap the man has come to him for employment.

Thanks for the h/t HM

I think The Donald has been around the teacup to find the handle more than once. I’m sure he’s a pretty good reader of people..........on the take.

Trump doesn’t need fundraisers. He has specifically rejected big money politics. He will tell the guy to take a hike.

Still, this signals doom for Walker.

Here is the big picture:

Many Americans have been told for so long that the border cannot be secured & the illegals sent home that they came to believe it.

Trump comes along & forcefully says he will do it. At first, people thought the idea was crazy & so was Trump. But, as the idea sinks in, more & more Americans realize that this is America, we can control our borders, & we do have a right & responsibility to end illegal immigration.

Bush says Trump’s plan would cost billions of dollars, but what are millions of illegal immigrants costing us in crime & welfare? What is the cost of American workers being displaced by low wage illegals? What is the cost of the drug smugglers & human traffickers? What is the cost of terrorists sneaking into this country?

The beauty of Trump’s plan is that he needs no authorization from Congress, the laws are already on the books. They just need to be enforced.

As more & more Americans realize this, Trump’s numbers will continue to grow.

Harvard probably has some of the best financial managers in the country, so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Good to see you.

I would be hard pressed to name ANY Ivy League university that doesn’t hate America. In fact, most universities appear to hate America.
