"I hear the Rickets family who own the Chicago Cubs are secretlty spending $'s against me. They better be careful, they have a lot to hide"
But “voter shaming” is horrible, horrible intimidation.
Oh! Heavens! He's ... he's ... he's playing hardball with these gentle, furry and helpless democrats. It's ... it's ... it's as if he's ... he's standing up to them. As if ... as if he's returning their punches.
Oh the immorality of that windbag narcissist! That tRump, That Donnie Kardashian! Oh he smells! I hate him I hate him I hate him make make him go away please make him go away. Only a brute would support support him, a dumb cult following TrumpsterDumbster Trumpetter playing in his band of Hillary donors and baby killers.
Please make him stop! I hate him!
Isn't that what you really meant?
Good question. How much money and influence does the Ricketts family have?
Donald Trump, Jr. Speaks 2-22-16 Elko NV.

It’s a Q and A. Don Jr is more articulate than most candidates in the race! Talks fast, not in a patronizing way and not like he’s lecturing.
Don Jr is part of the full court press from Trump.
“I’m probably the only billionaire’s son more comfortable in a D-10 Cat than a golf cart.”
He personally reloads 100 different calibers.
Very impressive.
Let’s talk about what the Ricketts family did to Wrigley Field. Disgraceful. ;-)
Oh crap, LOL. He’s got a pair, you can’t take that away from him.
Fair enough, that nothing (in politics)would surprise you.
Don't know why I would not believe him...
So then it would surprise you if Trump is telling a fib?
Just wondering if what he is saying Ricketts family is doing "SECRETLY" SPENDING MONEY is legal. As I said, I thought all contributions had to be noted somewhere.
PAC donors are public knowledge. I believe the information is released every quarter. And even when an LLC gives to a PAC, financial information about an LLC is public infomation.
Yes he is playing hardball and it’s about time we had someone that knows how to fight back. Bloody their nose and knock em down, then kick dirt in their face as you leave.
Quite a bit I would think...I don’t think tho that they are long time old Chicago money—the family is GOPe cheap labor express and also had a member who bundled for Obama. They owned TD Ameritrade. Bought Cubs in 2009.
Based on GOPe affiliations, would think they really hate Trump!
I agree. That was not very nice.
Dunno
But Trump would not call PAc or campaign contributions secret would he...
So perhaps Ricketts is funding some shenanigans? They are cheap labor express board members...
Have they responded? I haven’t seen anything.
They filed campaign-finance reports over the weekend unless Trump knows something going on under the radar which I highly doubt.
yes.
We do need to pray for his safety. TPTB will likely do anything possible.
Kinda like threating to sue...
Carnival barker.
Why do you highly doubt?
You want the current group of evil amoral bought off hacks to retain power ?
You want these puppets of Global elites like the Rickets or Murdoch or Zuckerberg or Robert Mercer or Ellison to continue to destroy this country with open borders, unlimited H1 Visas, crony capitalism trade deals like NAFTA or TPP that kill this country .
Really .
Wake up.
Rubio and Cruz are owned by people who hate us.
Using your words, I am from NY, so nothing surprises me.
So perhaps Ricketts is funding some shenanigans? They are cheap labor express board members...
If Ricketts is "funding some shenanigans", then Trump should pass that information along to us, no matter what the circumstance.
But that's not what Trump is saying.
New campaign-finance reports show that Marlene Ricketts, the wife of billionaire T.D. Ameritrade founder J. Joe Ricketts, contributed $3 million to Our Principles PAC, a super PAC that blistered Trump with negative ads, voter guides and mailers ahead of the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire and South Carolina primaries. Katie Packer, who helped manage Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign, runs the group.
Virtually all the money the committee raised in January came from Ricketts, whose family owns the Chicago Cubs.
