Tea Party darling and "birther" blowhard Donald Trump hasn't always put his money where his mouth is: The Donald has splashed campaign cash on a "Who's Who" who's who of liberal pols.
Trump shot to the top of GOP presidential polls by embracing debunked conspiracies about President Obama's birthplace but he repeatedly has opened his fat checkbook for a slew of Democratic stars, a review by the Center for Responsive Politics found.
The all-time apple of Trump's eye is beleaguered Harlem Rep. Charlie Rangel, the once powerful once-powerful ex-head of the tax-writing Ways & Means Committee and a GOP bogeyman.
The casino king has pumped $24,750 into Rangel's war chest.
New York's Democratic senators also have pocketed payouts from Trump.

They string up Romney but push Trump. Amazing. And Trump is an Obamacare supporter just like Romney.
Wrong. We just separate trump’s actions now from anything that will happen in 2012. Hopefully trump will deliver a coup de grace to knock Obama from running again. We didn’t say we would vote for trump,and I doubt he wants the job.
People have to understand with Trump tho, he’s a freakin developer. If he wants to build somewhere and liberals try to stop him, which they do all the time saying it wrecks their housing projects and meth clinic down the street, where does he go to make deals? These same libs he donated money to. It has absolutely nothing to do with Trump supporting their politics.
When did Trump first join the Tea Party?
He's not a perfect conservative - he's not a conservative at all. Anyone who uses the word "I" as much as he does in 30 seconds should never be trusted.
So tell me which of Trump's projects were helped by donating to Kerry?
That argument has already lost a tire.
He's doing his patriotic duty right now. He's ripping the Marxist to shreds.
I ask you, who else does that? Who else routinely blasts obama and has the lamestream ripping and shredding her and her family?
LOL! Love the pic!
Reagan was a Democrat and a Union Boss before becoming a Republican.
Did you vote for Perot?
I agree Trump is a whacko, and not presidential material... but that “debunked” birther stuff is a LIE.
Nothing has been debunked except for journalists who don’t want their darling to expose how their political ideologues over rode their duty as “media.”
And it's no excuse for Trump defenders to justify this as "just doing business in New York" (or elsewhere).
The fact is that a 64 year old man shouldn't be asking for his party's nomination for POTUS without, at a minimum, demonstrating some kind of identification with the party for some period of time.
Although he should be credited with his courage to elevate the profile of the Obama constitutional eligibility issue, it nevertheless is preposterous for Trump to be a serious contender for the GOP presidential nomination. The presidential nomination should be bestowed upon a Republican and Trump is a Johnny-come-lately "Republican" of convenience.
No iI did not vote in that one. My Mom voted for him though. He sure was right about NAFTA just look at this mess.
George Soros bailed out Donald Trump in 2008.
The Donald would have gone bankrupt without Soros’ millions...

He buys the politicians that are for sale.
This is how Crony Capitalism works.
