So for all you Trumpites who think that Trump will still be "self-financing" his campaign in the General - I have a question. Do you know how much the Democrats and their PAC's spent during the last cycle? Can you say Billions? If Trump wins the nomination, how do you think the MSM is going to treat him in the general? They'll turn on him so fast it make McCain and Romney's heads spin. How far will Trump get along with all his free "earned media" then? Even if Trump wanted too, he doesn't have the liquidity to be able to keep pace. He's not going to dump a huge chunk of his stash to pay for what will be needed.

So when Trump sets up his Super PAC’s... Who’s going to be owned by who then?

Doesn’t matter. Don’t you know Trump is the most conservative man alive? /s

None of this matters much. Trump doesn’t care about ethanol. Just a ploy to try and win Iowa. Its all about winning with him and not any particular ideas.

Palin and Trump have celebrity TV in common. The celebrities are running things now. Better than RINOs. I love Cruz but Mr. Personality he ain’t. I knew he would have trouble getting traction and the polls confirm he is toast. I will certainly vote for him though.

Conservatives are lost in the wilderness.

Trump supporters who also support increasing ethanol subsidies have absolutely no credibility.

Wasn’t the whole thing about ethanol to increase our fuel supply? And how is ethanol produced? Yep.

You mean they treated him with kid gloves from the moment he announced up until now?

The corn needs to be processed as food.

Not gas additives.

I don’t know what The Donald is thinking, and I work for an Oil Company. However, Ethanol subsidies is pretty far down the list of priorities and can be dealt with later.

Not to worry! Sarah Palin is a failed Governor from a cold state. She can’t have much of a following among Conservatives. The Natural Born Canadian can pull this out!

I am not going to agree with everything Trump advocates.

Do I like corn subsidies for Ethanol? No.

There are probably ten things Trump is going to do, and perhaps even 20 that cause me to think this is the least of our problems.

Trump actually wants federal regulators to force higher percentages of ethanol blended into gasoline.

Again he wants big government to force it on American citizens.

Jeb spent $70MM and dropped. Trump spent $250k and is #1. The more the opponents spend the worse they do. Let the Dems spend billions. Trump can save his spending for October, no one can remember what happened before then anyway.
