Trump: Tax-cutting advocacy group has started running an attack ad campaign against him because he refused Club for Growth president David McIntosh's request for a million-dollar donation
It looks like one of the preeminent tea-party-aligned groups has been outed for an attempted shakedown of GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump.
According to Trump, the tax-cutting advocacy group has started running an attack ad campaign against him because he refused Club for Growth president David McIntosh’s request for a million-dollar donation. HTML5 video is not supported!
Trump asked the group to release the letter McIntosh had sent him on June 2 requesting the donation. When the group didn’t respond to his request, Trump posted a copy of the letter on Twitter.
Yes.
Now they would like to take down Trump because he threatens their employers, The Cheap Labor Express.
No surprise. CFG is an open borders, cheap labor express front-group.
CFG lost its way when it became a tool of the GOPe.
Nice try, but no cigar!!!
It doesn’t matter what people do or say, it isn’t going to hurt Trump...he has to much support from the people who are angry at the msm, talking heads, RINOs, GOPee, and we are not going to put up with it anymore...
You can stomp your feet, you can try to out yell us, you can call us names, you can do anything you want, your not going to bother us because WE WANT TRUMP!!! 2016 All the way to the White House!!!
Was reading on this last night and it sure looks like an attempted shake-down. Shame on them. Maybe they can be prosecuted for extortion?
So, they have what appears to be an amicable meeting.
He refuses a 7 figure donation.
Next thing you know they are attacking him by name, and claiming HE attempted to buy influence which they of course were too principled to allow.
Then, he posts the letter.
Doesn’t look good for CFG on this one.
When will people learn?
Should change their name to Club for (China’s) Growth.
I am curious to know- just what kind of ‘’influence’’ could he ‘’buy’’ from them?
They should quit while they’re behind.
It was a shakedown racket like Al Sharpton runs....if he paid up he would get good, or neutral press, if not, he gets attack adds.
Don’t Efff...with the Trumpster.
I don’t know what the hell else you would call it.He blistered them for it as well.Good for him.
I guess so. You’d think they’d a known better. lol ‘’Now, [they’re] gahbage’’
In the end....they are just begging for cash & will attack anyone who they can’t screw over.
Sadly, I’m not surprised.
I’ve always considered myself a conservative, yet I despised many in the Bush White House and those in the Club for Growth establishment whose only priority was making money for oligarchs and CEOs, even if it created more debt and a weaker less self sufficient America.
Their goal was never about making a great America, but making crony capitalists rich, and sending the bill to the middle class. We need a nation that is self sufficient and encourages self sufficiency, that is not indebted, and that offers opportunities for all. The greedy globalists sold out America to expand their own wealth.
What they attempted to do to Trump is not surprising or is his response.
The thing that is surprising is that this has been happening in Washington to politicians for far to long. He is the first to publicly out them.
Tells you all you need to know about Boehner and McConnell! Both are bought political whores! They took the money and do their bidders dirty work.
I guess they figured Trump would not release the letter looking for the million dollar gift...they guessed wrong.
