I said he gave to BOTH DemoncRats and Republicans, so what's your point again?

What do you mean “does it matter”? Judging by my statement above, it doesn't matter. It's just what happened.

Did he deny giving money to DemoncRats and I missed it?

My concern is beating the DemoncRats in November. What I think about any Republican Candidate right now makes no difference.

By the time the Primary hits CA, the decision will already have been made. Whoever gets the Nod gets my Vote.

Emotional irrational decision making.

And you brag about it on a public forum...

Amazing.

Yes.. I am AMAZING.

Thank you very much!

So Hillary is supposed to be our mortal enemy politically and it matters not what Trump donated to her and her foundation. It isn’t about denials. It is about what was done in our face.

And yes, I also live in California and I don’t think it has ever mattered who I voted for in a primary for President. It is always over before we have our say.

PICTURE A CLINTON/TRUMP DEBATE MOMENT

HRC says to Trump: “then why did you contribute to the Clinton Foundation?”

Trump replies: “Because you were for sale”.

I can’t see HRCs’ handlers allowing her to walk into that trap. No way. Now a Mike Murphy, different story. As a tactical matter, you can’t allow a situation where your snarky, “implicative” question gets answered by black-and-white.

Joe Scarborough told NBC/s Chuck Todd Thursday on Morning Joe: "I will tell you who is horrified right now. Bill Clinton is horrified at the prospect that every time Hillary Clinton brings up women's issues, Donald Trump puts out an Instagram....and by the end of the campaign the names Bill Cosby and Bill Clinton are synonymous."

And that ain/t all....wait til Donald tweets out details of the Clinton Foundation/s (cough) charitable activities. Heheheheh.

The relationship is that I hear Levin putting all of his bets on Cruz as the only true conservative and now Limbaugh following suit, while at the same time Levin, who holds himself out as a great constitutional originalist, attacks quite irrationally anyone who even brings up the issue of eligibility and calls someone who makes an observation about Cruz and eligibility such as Lawrence Tribe a left wing nut job. In fact Tribe’s comments were quite sensible. In the end I think it quite foolish to place your bets on Cruz or Rubio without facing the eligibility issue. It is already raised and will, no doubt, be raised further. the simple fact is that if you face the issue you have to look at the other candidates including Trump.

Donating to the Clintons for the quid pro quo makes Trump part of the Washington problem.

Except he admitted to it in one of the earliest debates and it hasn't slowed him down. "Because you were for sale" is a perfect comeback. If she knows what's good for her Hillary won't even bring it up.

Trump is a work in progress. He has a definite Conservative personality; but he is just now focusing it on political issues. Before his focus was simply on building.

See Trump: Metaphor For American Conservatism.

That past is only prologue!

I'm a Cruz guy first, but it appears to me that minus Trump being abducted by Aliens, Illegal or Otherworldly, he will be the Republican Nominee.

I'm Voting for the Republican Nominee come November whoever they may be, are you?

I think the Cruz Campaign has had too many missteps too late in the game and it has hurt them. Can that change, sure it can, this is Politics after all but I really don't see it happening.

Remember, the GOPe hats Cruz just as much as they hate Trump and they are grooming Rubio as their Savior. If they Broker the Convention, they are finished.

You and everyone else here can go round and round about this. Since Trump said long ago that he has contributed to BOTH Parties, acting like this is something new won't cut it. Remember, that was the point of my original Post to you.

In case you haven't noticed, his Supporters have bigger Fish to fry and Trump is the only one saying what they have been thinking for a long, long time. If that makes him a Populist so be it. Nothing they and we have been force fed by the Republican Party has worked out and People know it.

The Republicans always talk about inclusion, and Trump is bringing People to our side of the Aisle that the GOPe could only wish for in their Dreams. If you think Ronald Reagan could get Elected POTUS in this day and age, you are only fooling yourself.

Let me let you in on a little Secret. My Ex B-I-L was a Commercial Property Developer in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
You would consider him a Conservative, but he courted the People in Power, mostly Democrats to get things done.

I shook hands with a few Folks that would probably repulse the typical FR Poster at some events he held when his Buildings were topped out. He told me many stories about what it takes to succeed in his Business, but his Vegas Deals were the things you would only read in a Novel.

Time for some people to climb out of the FR Bubble and smell the Coffee. No matter, we will never see another Election Season like this in my Lifetimes.

Just my $.02, your Mileage may vary. Carry on.

Nope, none of those issues matter in the slightest, because if we lose on immigration, we lose on every single one of those issues.

Have you not been paying attention to what I’ve been saying?

U mad?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

You use your brain, eh? Then you should return it to the manufacturer for a full refund.

When your brain is telling you to consistently conservatively selling the country to the liberals, there’s something wrong with it!

Only a fool would say the supreme court isn’t critically important.

Immigration is also very important - but - I don’t believe Trump will do what he says he’ll do. And that’s actually what matters. Not hollow words and emotional clap trap.

If we lose on immigration, the SC doesn’t matter either.

And for that matter, none of the others will do anything at all, definitely, so you can ‘not believe’ all you want, but in the end, Trump is still the only one with which we have a chance.

Cruz has flip-flopped more on this issue than Kerry did on the Iraq war, and with his embracing of Go8 Rubio, I don’t believe for a second that he’s telling the truth about border security any more.

That’s because you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Do what he says? Ted Cruz stood with Barack Obama and Goldman Sachs and against us on TPA/TPP. Why should we believe he won’t do that again? After his votes in the U. S. Senate, I have no confidence he won’t service his big donors again at our expense.

TPA was strongly supported by Reagan and has been provided to every President since then. The vote also makes it available to the next President. Reasonable people can disagree on this.

TPP hasn’t been voted on to my knowledge. It has been claimed it will pass but that is very unclear in the current climate.

Do you want to review Trump’s flip-flops over the last 15 years?
