Charlie and Dave Koch have Givento the Clintons as did Boone Pickens etc
It’s for access
My dad was a rock solid Goldwater southerner who donated to Dems when necessary for lobbying and access given his business was negotiated privatization of municipal water and sewer as have I on Nashville matters when they imposed on me in business
It’s exactly like Trump said
It gets their attention
I can’t speak for him but I give much heavier to charity and social conservatism and Dad bundled for Reagan and Old Bush
As I’ve mentioned before...got to give Cruz and Trump lots of room to navigate this terrain they’re attempting to back from the GOP.....
I’ve decided I’m not going to “expect” Trump nor Cruz to do or “behave” as other elections. They’re fighting the GOP and the Media that are the GOPs punch boys to knock the out....and not just in our view but behind the scenes....The Gop wants to “control” the entire election....set thier candidates up for the win by narrowing the candidates via the media hosts bashing whoever is “it” at the moment.
The GOP is also going after conservative news sites.....no doubt some cash is moving into coffers to carry the GOP water....example: Red-state recently.
So I really don’t care how Trump or Cruz handle themselves....they are fighting a war we cannot see the heart of.
