I’d like to see him sue as well. It’d be interesting to see how things would go with a full hearing of the matter.

I don’t like that the RNC sent out a solicitation targeting Trump supporters.

Likewise... Trump raised $6 million dollars allegedly for Veteran’s groups... and the vast majority of that money hasn’t gotten to it’s destination.

What the RNC has done is disgusting... what Trump has done looks like money laundering.

Fight Back

Much as it pays to emphasize the positive, there are times when the only choice is confrontation. In most cases I’m very easy to get along with. I’m very good to people who are good to me. But when people treat me badly or unfairly or try to take advantage of me, my general attitude, all my life, has been to fight back very hard. The risk is that you’ll make a bad situation worse, and I certainly don’t recommend this approach to everyone. But my experience is that if you’re fighting for something you believe in— even if it means alienating some people along the way— things usually work out for the best in the end.

When the city unfairly denied me, on Trump Tower, the standard tax break every developer had been getting, I fought them in six different courts. It cost me a lot of money, I was considered highly likely to lose, and people told me it was a no-win situation politically. I would have considered it worth the effort regardless of the outcome. In this case, I won— which made it even better.

When Holiday Inns, once my partners at the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, ran a casino that consistently performed among the bottom 50 percent of casinos in town, I fought them very hard and they finally sold out their share to me. Then I began to think about trying to take over the Holiday Inns company altogether.

Even if I never went on the offensive, there are a lot of people gunning for me now. One of the problems when you become successful is that jealousy and envy inevitably follow. There are people— I categorize them as life’s losers— who get their sense of accomplishment and achievement from trying to stop others. As far as I’m concerned, if they had any real ability they wouldn’t be fighting me, they’d be doing something constructive themselves.

The law about CRBA says that a passport will also suffice.

Cruz has a passport, I assume. I don’t really know, but I think he was out on a foreign trip last year.

Saying Cruz is not a citizen is a non-starter. First, even if your parents didn’t fill out the paperwork, then it used to be you could do so until age 23 or so, but now I think there is no age limit at all.

So, his passport is evidence of his US citizenship.

I’m a Trump supporter, by the way.

I said he should sue. But how will you keep all out of evidence all the time she said that Cruz was eligible?

I know, what's wrong with Trump? Doesn't he know that the Republican way is to just write a strongly worded letter? /sarc

The courts will duck this if they can.
They have already allowed an usurper into office.
If forced to decide, they will decide for the new definition of simply being born a citizen to cover their own posteriors.
The new definiton makes every anchor baby and Winston Churchill eligible.

One is NATURALLY a US citizen when one cannot possibly be anything else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Natural born citizen.

I don’t think it is straightforward at all. If you board a bus, you need not sign an agreement or a contract. It is imlied by the fact you are aboard the conveyance. Trump has availed himself (fraudulently, in my opinion) of the title and status of Republican. Moral of the story is don’t get on the bus if you are going to insist you should not be a paying rider. Inclusion of a group implied through membership is an implied contract, probably spelled out in the GOP agreement when making public appearance, but also probably not necessary. “Not having one’s act together” will most likely be greeted with a hee haw by anyone in the legal system as grounds for negating an agreement, but those are weasel words on Trumps part. If it speaks like a weasel (or barks like a dog) it probably is one. The whole thing should be held in a fourth grade moot court session. Swift justice.

“. First, the GOP misappropriated his name and likeness to solicit donations for the GOP. They recently solicited donations allegedly for **Trump supporters** but the funds they were soliciting will go to the GOP generally, not to Trumps campaign, and they did it without his permission. “

FINALLY! RNC by way of the NRCC and NRSC has been scamming Trump supporters for months.

Trackback:

September was when I started reporting on this. There are half dozen articles since.

A plus about the Donald is he may do anything you won’t expect.
Good against the RNC, Iran, Russia and Democrats.
Like Reagan he will go over the head of the establishment to the people.

The fix is in IMO for Trump or Cruz. Remember Jeb Bush smiling like the cat in Alice in Wonderland stating there was no way Trump gets the nomination? This is about the brokered convention being planned. I even heard Hew Hewitt state on his show a month ago that delegates better book an extra week.

I think the RNC plans to screw Cruz or Trump and to rally behind a Rubio at the convention like they used Ryan to supposedly bring it all together.

All the above IMO will be the very end of the Republican Party. If the winner of the primary does not go forward all hell will break loose and the Republican Party will have caused the end of the Republic as we knew it and they will loose all their power and money.

How do you know the money hasn’t gotten to the destinations it was intended?

As for people like Starnes who wish to blame Republican voters for "screwing this up" by refusing to vote for Romney, **** you with a rusty chainsaw. Neither I or anyone else are under any obligation to vote for anyone.

Thank you.

Wow! You don’t expect much do you? That was only two weeks ago! George Bush didn’t take care of our vets when he was president!

So if the crybaby Trump became president, what party would help him achieve any of his goals? Hmmmm? I mean after he’s trashed everyone in his mad, megalomaniacal campaign who in what party would champion his positions? He’d be a lame duck on day one.

I have already posted the link to the PDF file from Trump's website where the money is going. I assume you have specific dollar amounts that have been issued to that list. The accusation of money laundering is vile and shows you either do not understand the definition of the term or you are willing to smear without merit.

Some of the funds were pledged and may not have been forthcoming. Some of the checks were presented at rallies. Whatever the case, it is rather early for your type of smear. Once again, your accusation demands that you indicated how much money has been given and what groups have not received the cash from Trump's posted list. Care to retract?
