Burcroff endosed another Dem in 2016.

I think we know how he rolls.

Someone did a pretty good job covering up his party association.

I thought money donated to them was pretty much their own money, as long as they disclosed it. And I think they can keep it even after a campaign.

This is no different than a preacher spending money from the collection plate on a fancy vacation. People give away money with out the receiver signing a contract. If you want a donation to go to a specific cause, get it in writing.

I don’t know. Even if he had spent the donation differently, his aim is a “fancy vacation.” A life-long one! Why not use some donations to bribe his family and all those who provided for the wedding? Get some practice using other people’s money to entice.
