"Data from the Federal Election Commission and state elections offices provided by the two websites show that Trump has given $584,850 to Democrats and $961,140 to the GOP over the last 26 years." (this is at the Federal level and does not include state or local)

A necessary a business expense to keep them off your back. I can’t say it is all that hard to figure out.
When you can explain with a straight how Cruz cannot be in the pocket of Goldman Sachs with accepting hundreds of thousands in campaign contributions, millions in low interest loans, his wife as a senior executive, when you can explain all this then we will talk about Trump.
It’s the difference between controlling politicians and being a politician that’s being controlled.
“He played the game of buying favors to further his business interest and admits it. “
Name ONE favor Trump bought. One. And how much did he pay for it.
Trump is not a billionaire. That’s one reason he doesn’t want you to see his tax returns.
He is not even a good businessman. He’s got approximately the same amount of money he inherited.
It would have done better in government bonds.
He’s a con man and you are the the conee
Trump, and his lack of integrity, are part of the problem, and definitely not the solution to the problem.
He has answered that question 100 times.
Try again.
I think Trump’s point is that he knows how crooked the government is because he’s been playing their game for all these years.
He wants it to stop. Our politicians are so bought & paid for that it’s destroying the country & has all but destroyed the middle class. They’ve sold us out.
Trump is sick of it & he’s putting his money where his mouth is.
Trump was the exploited, NOT the extortionist. BIG difference.
Who was it that demanded $100 million ‘’donation’’ from him, he said no, & now, they’re spending millions on ads AGAINST him? They back Ted Cruz. Club For Growth, I think.
Tell me that’s not extortion.
What’s in your candidate’s wallet?
Is HE the payor or the payee?
Are you really that naive? Trump was operating a BUSINESS in a very left-wing NY state. Let me clue you in, ALL LARGE BUSINESSES contribute to both parties. Because very few states exist with a monolithic control by just one party.
Our Congress 2006 Secure Fence Act. Another scam put forth to the people. When this became law, the doors flung open.
Trump gave $350,000 to the Republican Governors Assoc. So now you can STFU and ask another question. :-)
Someone knows everything about nothing.
Your just like the news media and talking heads, lies, lies, lies, try finding out the facts of the story and then realize your lying...
And you built the buildings and the resorts and the golf courses that Trump has built? Where are they? Do you have pictures of them, do you even know where to start? No I didn't think so, it's just easier to sit here and lie....
Great sign.
Cruz PACs have taken more campaign “donations” from Wall Street firms than any other candidate except for Jeb, including more than even Hillary.

So why does Cruz and his supporters act as if he is some kind of virtuous outsider?
Can someone who really likes Cruz help me understand.
Thanks.
So is your tagline. GEAUX TRUMP!
Post of the day FRiend!!
Surprise so many here do not get that....
You did not address my post. I know the landscape is cluttered with stuff named for Trump.
I just said he has not made money or increased the wealth he inherited.
Stop calling me a liar because we worship different gods.
