“He’s openly bragged he’s bought politicians.”

He means campaign donations. Exactly like the donations that are funding Ted Cruz’s campaign and super PACs. Will you admit Ted Cruz is bought and paid for in the same way you say Trump has “bought politicians?

Good Point.

Speaking of campaign contributions...check out this scam.

The NRSC is all over FACEBOOK again today with their presidential poll.
https://yourvoice.nrsc.org/landing/presidential-poll/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=20160104_nrsc-lb-votetrumprubiocruz_facebook&utm_content=nrsc&utm_term=83920800

Just be aware that when you vote for Trump you will get emails trying to sell you BOGUS Trump gear and the $$ goes to finance Rubio and Cruz (who used to head the NRSC!)and other senate republicans!

This is the National Republican Senatorial Committee and they are CONNING you to hurt the Trump campaign!

They’ve been doing this for months. http://towncriernews.blogspot.com/2015/09/more-gop-fundraising-on-trump-name-now.html

BTW....NRSC gives Ted Cruz big $$$!
2. Senate Conservatives Fund $315,991

Everyone does it. It's the system. It may or may not be of benefit.

I always brought a dozen donuts to a Town father who would eventually sign our drawings. BUT....He would have signed them anyways....cuz that's his job.

State Reps, senators, whomever....that's their job...

When asked why he gave to both parties, he didn’t say he gave out of his ideological beliefs, but rather to be able to call on them for favors. Sen. Cruz’ large donors appear to be mostly ideological in nature. And his many small donors (like me) are likely all ideological.

trump has a peculiarly transactional view of political giving.

As well, we know he has given extensively to politicians in an above-board fashion. He has yet to be investigated for cash under the table transactions. We already know he paid hundreds of illegals in cash near slave wages under the table.
