JUST FACTS About Trump’s Political Contributions
Newsletter ^ | Mar 25, 2016 | Dennis Lynch

First, let’s point out a contribution Donald Trump made to Ted Cruz:

01/29/14 $5,000. To: Jobs Growth & Freedom Fund (Ted Cruz’s PAC)

So Cruz is The Donald’s ‘straw man’ and all the exchanges are most likely to focus attention on Cruz and off Trump?

Most of Trump’s contributions have gone to Democrats and RINOs. He funded Hillary Clinton. he funded 5 of the Gang of Eight. He funded McConnell’s effort to stomp the Tea Party. He funded New York’s Communist mayor.

Those are FACTS.

“It’s time to report some bare-bone FACTS.”

It there a reason the article did not mention Trump's generous contributions to the Clinton Crime Family Foundation?

That’s 37.8 % too much for me. My god, the man supported Harry Reid over the tea party candidate in Nevada. And don’t say all businessmen do it. There are plenty of donors who try to help the right side win, not pad their own pockets.

Lying about what, that he supported Harry Reid? That he put his own personal financial gain over the good of the country? If he wraps up the nomination, watch how fast he changes his positions, he has no core personal beliefs, and will do what he thinks he needs to to “win”.
