This is YUGE!!!

Made wife donate yesterday.

She said “I donated last week”

I said you’re donating again.

The deal is I got FR and the vets and she has Trump and my cousin’s Thalassemia foundation.

At least one of hers ends in two months!!! :)

Trump!!!!!!!!

[Dr. Sivana]

Trump still lags far behind the pace-setting Democrats.

Of course. He doesn't double and triple bill.

Woe unto me. I’m not one of the smaller donors. As of now I’ve given $450 and plan to give another $600. Quick! Send the gas van from the Clinton/Obola Reeducation camp now.

[Awgie]

This is another very positive sign! Go Donald!

[KavMan]

I’ve been saying TRUMP is the Republican Obama, all the patterns match! Just look at Youtube, there are tons of video people have made with TRUMP in it & that takes alot of work!

Nothing happened for McCain or Romney but Obama had tons!

This Election will be a BLOWOUT imho!

Same - after blowing about $600 on Cruz in the early goings, I have sent Trump over $800 and will probably do about $500 more in the next 4-5 weeks. Good to know that others are doing the right thing and sending anything from a few bucks to hundreds. Money shouldn't matter so much but the "system" has made it so that money is king.

You can bet if the Trump campaign made unauthorized charges to small donors the way a certain someone’s campaign does it would be plastered over ever front page in the land and the lead story on TV for the next ten days.

[Starboard]

I donated twice. Will pull out the checkbook again today for Trump.

This election is for all the marbles. Losing is not an option.

[Starboard]

Yep, the media puts a magnifying glass on Trump but looks at Hillary through a telescope.

[dp0622]

yep

[RayChuang88]

Trump, like Obama, knew that THE way to reach voters todayis by the Internet via social media and streaming video websites. That's why Hillary Clinton's campaign is imploding--she campaigns like it was the 1990's and is doing poorly on social media.

[Rurudyne]

With peanut butter smeared on the already badly scratched lens ... just in case.

[Nevadan]

I know this has been discussed before, but which are the real donation sites to the Trump campaign? I don’t want my money going to the national Republican Party to be used as they see fit. Is “Women Vote Trump” a legit donation site?

Got news fer ya. By Democrat donor standards you're not even on the pay-to-Playing field Example Matthew Barzun bought an ambassadorship to the UK from 0bama for a $3,503,000 "donation."

$25 a couple weeks ago, $50 today. Can’t afford much, he’s still not my ideal candidate, but he crosses the threshold and is worth supporting. Wore my Trump hat to a college campus over the weekend and enjoyed the hate looks from the snowflakes as well. Unfortunately, also realized after lunch that I probably should have watched the cook make my meal — never know how they will react to someone who doesn’t fit their mold.

“I’ve been saying TRUMP is the Republican Obama, all the patterns match”

There’s a difference. Obama’s huge number of “small” donations, primarily online, were largely fraudulent ones from unaccounted for and under the table foreign donations. It was fraud, plain and simple. The Obama organization did not document where their small donations online were coming from, against campaign regulations, and no one called him on it as he was Black. So he got away with it.

Hundreds of thousands of donations came in, primarily, it is suspected, from Arab entities. Obama is/was a crook almost on the same magnitude as Hitlery.

“Unfortunately, also realized after lunch that I probably should have watched the cook make my meal — never know how they will react to someone who doesn’t fit their mold.”

That’s probably what you ate for lunch, mold.

“but which are the real donation sites to the Trump campaign?”

Here’s the 3 we use:
https://www.donaldjtrump.com/
https://rebuildingamericanow.com/ (Trump super-Pac)
https://www.nrapvf.org/ (NRA political victory fund)

The second one uses the money to buy airtime for their 5 pro-Trump ads, including this great American Steel ad running in PA: https://rebuildingamericanow.com/ and donating to it is encouraged by the Trump campaign:

“Supporting Rebuilding America Now is one of the best ways to stop Hillary Clinton and help elect Donald Trump our next president!“
– Gov. Mike Pence

The NRA has a separate fund you can donate and uses the money to air anti-Hillary ads and fund GOTV efforts. It’s like an extra ground game in addition to Trump’s and the RNC.

This is a great ad about Hillary’s privileged life style with her armed guards and SS details.
