Michigan businessman Linden Nelson reportedly approached Democrat U.S. Senate candidate Hill Harper with a $20 million campaign contribution proposal if he instead made a primary challenge against Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Politico reported Wednesday.

Newsmax-I don't believe it for one minute. $20 million? The article came out in Politico and The Hill with their own versions, using the word 'allegedly'. The candidate, a pretty-boy actor needs traction and will not get the nomination so Newsman runs with it as if it's fact.

When the left is not lying they stretch the truth. We got the same thing here.

Unless Harper uses that money to bribe Tlaib’s constituents, forget it.

Wasn't Rashida Tlaib elected in a solid muslim-terrorist district?

I doubt even throwing mega-bucks against her will change the outcome.

I don’t think I’d care enough about politics to spend 20M on it... I don’t care how rich I was

<>It would be illegal for a wealthy donor and a person planning to run for office to essentially coordinate and line up $20 million in financing to support that person’s candidacy; this would raise serious corruption concerns about the candidate being wholly within that one donor’s pocket, “he told Politico.<>

Perhaps. But it doesn’t apply if the person running for office is named Clinton, Obama or Biden.

*I don’t think I’d care enough about politics to spend 20M on it... I don’t care how rich I was.*

That’s just it-that much money. Coming out of the mouth of a losing candidate shows his desperation-eyebrow raising. Could that ‘offer’ be coming from a Jew in a way that shows him standing up to the lobby?

Like I said there’s 3 versions of this in 3 articles. It’s Newsman that’s playing us for useful idiots.

“Her seat is safe.”

Exactly. If the offer of the money is in anyway sincere, there are many more worthy candidates out there who can use it.
