He is either self funding or he isn’t. He spoke in that speech about how people want to give him money but he is turning it down.
He should say he is not accepting help from super pacs, not he is not accepting any donations, because that is just not true.
He’s always said that he’s accepting small donations. No Super Pacs.
Not in the speech he just did. He just said he is self funding his campaign.

I’ve heard him say many times that he likes small donations, and that it would be insulting to send the money back. He doesn’t solicit the money.
Have you seen any official Trump sites that ask for money? If you do let us know? What I would send to him, instead I’ll send extra to FR.
Agreed, my email is full of requests for money from various candidates. I always find it interesting because their net worths are always staggering compared to the folks from whom they are asking...
Ted Cruz calls me 3 times a day. I think he’s worried about losing TX. Besides the 3 times a day money grubbing, I’ve gotten Cruz Poll calls.
I can’t watch this at work. I’d like to know WHY is he for Ethanol Mandates, Subsidies etc? It’s so far the only thing that puzzles me? On the other hand I might be naïve about this.
For example, with the price of oil dropping why are we putting Ethanol in our cars? Also, is the ethanol derived from actual foodstuffs? ie corn, or is it from non edible foodstuffs such as corn cobs?
IF we’re using food to burn into Ethanol, that is sinful.
Hasn’t it started yet?
Trump was quoted as saying: “I’m gonna build a wall. A big beautiful wall. With a big beautiful gate. And Mexico is going to pay for it. They are. And they have to go home. They do, they have to go home, and then they can come back legally. They have to be legal. Our leaders are stupid. They are terrible. They are totally incompetent. We get killed by China. China laughs at us. Our leaders are so bad at doing deals. I know the best people in the country for doing deals. I know the good ones and I know the bad ones. Our leaders are terrible. China kills us, everyone kills us because we are incompetent. I’m going to make America great again. We really are. We’re going to start winning on trade. And, we’re going to mandate more ethanol in our National Gasoline Mixtures. Our leaders are getting killed on Gasoline. We need smart people who will put more ethanol in our gasoline.”
Yes,it came on at 1:30 central time. Very short. He also reminded everyone to join him later for his announcement at his next rally this evening.He also said, this announcement should please a lot of people. ;)
