Gosh, the Ricketts family has Chicago connections? What are the odds they have stuff to hide?

When did they lose the right to contribute to whomever they wish?

If only we could pass a law where people who donate to their political groups or candidates of their choices would have to be revealed by those collecting their donations. Then this activity would not be secret.

That’s already the law? Then it isn’t a secret, is it?

Trump must be tired. He didn’t write LIAR 10 times with lots of exclamation points.

Trump should behave like a good Christian conservative is expected to.

Sit down, shut up, turn the other cheek, take it up the rear, and lament at how awful it all is.

But the rest of us have a right to know they have done it, and who took their money.

From the article:

For starters, the money spending isn't exactly secret - it's available for Trump's viewing pleasure on Open Secrets, and in the Our Principles PAC SEC filings.

So when did Americans lose the right to support whomever they wish?

Yes we know he’s just following the footsteps Ronald Wilson Reagan who threatened frivolous lawsuits at every turn ... wait no that wasn’t Reagan was it

Winning large? By suppressing others right to support whomever they wish?

They haven't. They should be proud of their choices, even put their names on the ads they pay for. When did Trump lose the right to apply the principle of "actions have consequences"?

And if a single wealthy powerful family is funding causes to which they claim to object, let’s shine a little light on them

Trump should start an “enemies list” just to be sure he doesn’t forget anyone deserving of retribution.

Show me where they've hidden anything?

Their giving is public record.

Do you really want a President that punishes people for opposing him? Don't we already have that?

Threatening to stop campaign speech when it is against him today and yesterday saying the federal government should absolutely keep control of 80% of Nevada’s land mass. “If its turned over to the states no telling what the citizens would do to wreck their land.” DT 2-22-16

You do realize that Our Principles PAC wants to take out Cruz, too, don’t you?

Read what Katie Packer says about both Cruz and Trump. They are just trying to take out Trump first.

“He might sue??”

Trump was not the one who said that. Are you THAT suggestible?

Stunning! And his supporters will make excuses for why the peasants are dangerous when free.
