Trump Adviser Has Contributed Over $100K to Democrats Son-in-law backed Gang of Eight pols, supporters of Obama immigration executive action.

Morgan Chalfant. April 5, 2016 .

Donald Trump’s son-in-law, who has been informally advising the business mogul, has contributed more than $100,000 to Democratic campaigns and committees over two decades.

Jared Kushner, husband of Ivanka Trump, has become one of Donald Trump’s “very few” advisers in his campaign to secure the Republican nomination for president, (snip)

Trump’s unofficial adviser has a history of financing Democratic causes, contributing $101,950 to Democratic campaigns and committees since 1999, according to a review of Federal Election Commission records. Kushner, a real estate investor and newspaper owner, has contributed to committees supporting various Democratic politicians, including those that have been friendly to President Obama’s executive actions on immigration reform.

Kushner contributed $2,000 to Hillary Clinton’s 2000 campaign for U.S. Senate in New York and later contributed $4,000 to the committee supporting then-Sen. Clinton in 2003. (snip)

Recipients of Kushner’s contributions also include Sens. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) and Robert Menendez (D., N.J.), both of whom were members of the so-called Gang of Eight pushing for congressional legislation on immigration reform in 2013. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R., Ala.), a prominent Trump supporter, was a leading critic of the immigration bill, which he argued paved the path for “amnesty.” Sessions has dredged up his opposition to the bill during the current presidential race to slam Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.), a former GOP presidential candidate who was also a member of the Gang of Eight.

(snip)

Kushner has also contributed to the campaigns of Democratic lawmakers who cheered Obama for granting temporary legal status to millions of illegal immigrants....

No surprise. Trump has always been a middle of the road guy.
Just too many people here think he’s something he isn’t.

There's a reason Ivanka married him.

http://www.people.com/article/chelsea-clinton-ivanka-trump-friendship-parents-rivalry

The political world was pleasantly surprised to learn that Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton are bipartisan BFFs

And Chelsea raved about her friend in a February interview with Vogue, saying, "She's always aware of everyone around her and ensuring that everyone is enjoying the moment ... There's nothing skin-deep about Ivanka." "She's a great woman," Chelsea adds to PEOPLE.

Donald Trump Jr. has come out in support of marriage equality.

Ivanka has hosted fundraisers for equal marriage rights among gays.

They classily raised funds for radical leftist Cory Booker.

By now its evident that Trumpkins will bend themselves into pretzel, throw conservatives principles in the fire, to defend their “Dear Leader,” even if 70% of the country has a negative view of the conman and polls show him losing to Hillary by 11% points and to Bernie by a whopping 17% points.

You miscalculate. This isn’t about a personality like it is for you. This is about knocking the pillars out of the foundation. Trump is merely the wrecking ball.

Your guy just one of many in the hoards of demons on the tower.

Will the Dems exploit Coker vote, TPA, Goldman Sach, the “forgotten” loan filings, the late relinquishing of Canadian citizenship? Do you think the Dems won’t throw everything possible at any GOP candidate? That is what they do.

Except, with Trump we might get a wrecking ball like Hillary to our conservative values and you’d get legal status to all illegal immigrants and a supreme court and federal judiciary that will accelerate our country into the sewer.

“Donald Trump’s son-in-law, who has been informally advising the business mogul, has contributed more than $100,000 to Democratic campaigns and committees over two decades.”

Trump's son in law contributed to Democrats over the past 20 years.

His son in law “does not hold an official role in the campaign” according to the article. He was a real estate investor in NY and therefore needed to be on good terms with politicians.

What is the big deal? Is Trump supposed to disown his daughter and her husband?

Agree. Trump will be appointing his liberal associates to positions of power. Under Trump, nothing changes, except government keeps getting bigger.

I certainly wouldn’t want Glen Beck on MY side. He is the definition of goofy.

Ironic isn't it?

Cruz is still in the race to deny Trump the nomination, thereby giving the election to Hillary.

Irony.

Speaking of hypocrisy with this garbage of businessmen donating to both parties in NY. Including to Cruz.

How about Cruz’s law firm where hes a senior partner donating to elect Obama and giving 3/4 million to democrats?

He’s advising one of the leading “republicans”. Trump is on his 3rd wife after cheating on the first two.

At least you had the courtesy of using the word “might”. To Hell with our conservative values if we can’t purge the party of these scum like Cruz, McConnell, Romney, Graham, Bushes, Rubio, Kasich, and Priebus. Let’s get our country back from the sewer it is already in first, then we can dither about whose conservatism is bigger than whose.

Speaking of boogers,and scruze I recently saw a video of Cruz trying to embrace his sweet little daughter,and she wanted no part of him. She was doing this funny thing with her fingers at him that looked like she was flicking boogers at him,and her face was mean looking. She still looked really cute. He should have left her alone,she was not in the mood.

Trump is in the race to make his friend Hillary POTUS. If somehow Trump ends up winning, he will govern just as Hillary would.
