Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump raised $13.6 million in the fourth fundraising quarter, according to the campaign's filing with the Federal Election Commission.
Trump, who often boasts about that he is self-funding his campaign, loaned his campaign $10.8 million, leaving his operation with nearly $7 million in cash-on-hand.
The campaign reported that it spent nearly $7 million during the fourth quarter alone. It raised $2.6 million beyond Trump's loan. Most came from small dollar donations.
The campaign owes $12.6 million to Trump himself.
The filing shows that the Trump campaign spent nearly $500,000 on hats, primarily on the red caps featuring the popular slogan "Make America Great Again."
The real estate mogul's filing comes less than 24 hours before the Iowa caucuses, where Trump holds a slight lead in polls over Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
Another non-story Trump story.
Story time never really ends for the anti-Trump posters it seems.
Go Trump!
Yes, usually they are.
Cruz raised more through his and Heidi’s harassment of supporters. Beggars.
Zero posting days left until the Iowa Caucus!
Trump likely use public financing for general. That’s about $85 million+ which is more than enough considering how little he spent for primary
********************************************************************************
IF he does that, he’ll be crushed.
Speak for your own principles and values. Mine are for a better USA.
I want to vote for Trump even more now. I won’t vote for Cruz if he wins because of you and your type.
Disgusting flooding the forum with your hate.
I’m with you on that.
LOL....Knowing Trump he is probably loaning it to his campaign at 10% interest.
VERY well stated analogy of this situation.
They’re all pro amnesty, except for Trump, and I’m not even too sure he is.
How do you know it won’t be TRump getting that voting block????
I want to publicly THANK YOU CIN for your non stop effort to enlighten this forum. The Truth of your post are deliberately being ignored by the hypnotized masses. The day may come when “the won” will say on the count of 3 you will awake, but then it is too late.
When do you get to cast your vote for Donald Trump?
You’re VERY welcome.
+1
Seriously.
I expect the next deranged anti-Trump headline to be:
TRUMP TAKES MONEY FROM NYC BILLIONAIRE!
Then you’re ok with amnesty? Got it.
“Youâre kidding yourself if you think the man has the $750 mil or so needed to run in the general.
Heâll be on his knees BEGGING for donors and âmaking dealsâ like you cannot imagine if he tricks enough of you folks into voting for him.
Iâll bet he even takes a donation or two from Planned Parenthood before its all said and done if he wins the nomination.”
Let me guess.. you’re supporting Cruz, right?
