I thought Trump said he was self-funding, and proud of it, and that this is what sets him apart from those “owned” politicians. Does this mean Trump the politician is ready to be purchased?
The media has loads on Trump that they have been saving up just for the after nomination.
NBC has a BBC expose they are holding until the right time. They bought it from the BBC. They have already shown it in Great Britain and I have a friend in London who has seen it. He told me that we are nuts if we make him president.
It will be a feeding frenzy and the media knows that they will really clean up on the ratings.
I am delightfully breathing in the air of clear thinking, with no regrets.
Big Ethanol is ready for a date with Donny.
We need a candidate whose character can withstand being owned because DC is corrupting . Period.
DT suckered folks into believing this self-funded bs
wanna buy Brooklyn Bridge?
DT supporters are now going to excuse this.
But... but... he’s “self-funded.” “Nobody owns him.” One by one, the delusional arguments of the Trump supporters collapse, but they never scratch that nagging little cognitive dissonance itch...
LOL And I bet al the trumpettes will be willing to donate their firstborn to support him
yes media holding fire till he’s nominee then BOOM
He's selling that too? But first I have to scrounge up 36 thou to enroll at Trump University. I'm so excited! Mr. Trump says it will be fabulous!
sad for the reality challenged
DT has 0 character. Has bought pols all his career. Changes positions as wind blows. Hired illegals, Visa workers. He’s always been that way.
Cruz has always been the reverse.DT has 0 character. Has bought pols all his career. Changes positions as wind blows. Hired illegals, Visa workers. He’s always been that way.
Cruz has always been the reverse. Untouchable, stalwart, courageous.
No Trumpeteer is listening. They don’t care what his views are. They change with the wind and a lot of Freepers don’t care.
It’s a shame it’s come down to name calling. But I have a memory like an elephant. When they start screaming and stop making excuses for Trump’s bad behavior. I’ll be watching.
“It’s times like these that try men’s souls.”
In my best Breitbart voice... SO?
He has self-funded through the primaries, however, if he becomes the nominee, the RNC is obligated to support the candidate with party dollars and he should be able to fundraise at that point. This is a pathetic attempt. Would any other candidate not accept RNC funds?
It’s the whole reason they moved up the date of the convention! For Pete’s sake.
I don’t think so. There is a single quote from Trump in the entire article. There is no quote from anyone in Trump’s campaign.
All we are told is that CNN wrote that entire article based on a “source”.
They also seem really peeved in that article that Trump has spent so much less than everyone else.
Imagine having a businessman President who runs the country by adhering to the bottom line, and who has personally signed the front of checks, not the backs.
Heidi Cruz is (or was, at least, before she went on leave for the campaign) one of around 4,000 managing directors at Goldman Sachs. She's not even a partner there, much less involved in the firm's management committee.
What makes you think she has any say in where the firm (or any of its employees) donate their money?
Of course. Idiotic to think he can run against the Unions, the leftist media attack pack the Clinton machine and the GOPE establishment in the GENERAL Election all by himself.
As opposed to Cruz who has said “I can be bought any time any where”
You beat me too it...She is essentially a middle mgnt peon at GS
You have a link for that?
No, as opposed to Cruz, who has said all along that he was fundraising for his campaign.
Trump is the one who described fundraising as being bought. And now, he's singing (or getting ready to sing) a different tune.
