Look. I get this. I live in L.A. Like NYC, a one-party town where the GOP is effectively extinct now. I can understand why Republican developers might find it to their interests to write some checks to LOCAL Dem politicians to help get a project done.
THIS DOES NOT EXCUSE DT FROM WRITING TO CHECKS TO HRC, REID, AND PELOSI. NOT NECESSARY. By giving to the DCCC and DSCC, DT helped bring the Dems to power in 2006 in Congress. No excuse for this whatsoever. And I’m sick and tired of DT’s fanatical supporters trying to sugar coat this. DT is a populist, not a conservative. Big difference. He goes whichever way the wind is blowing. Since DT is currently seeking the GOP nomination, he has positioned himself slightly to the right of Atilla the Hun right now. Assuming DT wins the GOP nomination, he will move aggressively to the center. He is a nominal Republican and not much of a conservative.
How well do you know Trump?

Reading internet headlines does not equate to truth. Trump has given 898 k since 1999. Some 62.2 percent went to Republicans. Since 2012 very few dollars have gone to Dems. Get off lefty sites.
