Why would Ricketts extort Trump?

That’s what you meant, right?

Usually the Extortionist makes the first move as Ricketts did going after Trump.

She should use that Money to bolster the Cubs Bench.

If he wants to defend himself on the issues that is fine but going after the personal lives of donors is out of bounds.

Disclaimer-1 : I'm a Ted Cruz Florida Campaigner

Disclaimer-2 : I've posted "many" complimentary photos and posts at Free Republic admiring Donald Trump's great ideas and courage



If it quacks & walks like a Duck ... it must be a Duck" ...

Isn't that a New York proverb ?


Donald Trump "occasionally" sounds like Putin, Mussolini, or Hillary chatting with Vince Foster ...

It's a damn frightening thing ...



I hope that all those Trump-supporting "Conservative Evangelical Christians" are praying their butts off ...

that The LORD will save Donald from appearing like The Godfather ... (see Disclaimer-2 above) ...

Not at all. Trump is simply saying his critics won’t get a free ride anymore - attack him and you can be sure of being attacked yourself.

That’s perfectly fair.

And it’s basically the same message Trump gave to Hillary at the end of December, when she was threatening to push the “war on women” lie against him.

Result? We literally have not heard the “war on women” lie since then. Fighting back works!

Go Trump. “One man with guts makes a majority” - Andrew Jackson

... and we’ve had to suffer through a LOT of gutless politicians lately. At least Trump is willing to fight.

It about time these Global elites trying to destroy this country get outed for there sleazy actions.

The Rickets think they can set up and fund a secret smear PAC to attack the only guy stopping them from destroying this country.

Out every single one of these Dangerous Globalists selling us out to China or Saudi Arabia or Iran.

The Rickets are no friends of the US or its middle class.

Wake up .

I don’t think that is it at all.
He has stated that anybody who joins a campaign is fair game.

I doubt anybody with TDS even know or care about where the funding against him comes from.

He may share and send some of you to the hypocrisy madhouse.

Mr. Trump is using tweeting and the social media very effectively.

To date I always believed Republicans were light years behind the Democrats for the use of social media. The spread of Bern is in part a result of gap.

Okay, great. What happens when he uses this threat as president and somebody with nothing to lose calls his bluff?

If there is a legitimate issue with the Ricketts family that effects us, then Trump should be willing to divulge the information no matter what.

Else it sounds like Trump is threatening to divulge embarassing personal information.

That would be sleazy.
