I'll tell you who, those who already hate Trump. I've got to admit I love watching dem steam and stew!-) Donald Trump’s speaking slot at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturdayis prompting an acrimonious backlash from the conservative critics desperately trying to mount a last-ditch campaign to block the GOP presidential front-runner from winning the party’s nomination. A top aide to Trump rival Marco Rubio has accused CPAC organizers of being in the tank for Trump and clearing the way for his acceptance into mainstream conservatism, while an anti-Trump super PAC is pressuring organizers to rescind their invitation to the surging GOP front-runner. Potentially complicating matters further, sources tell POLITICO that Trump has made multiple donations ― including a $50,000 check last year ― to the American Conservative Union, the group that organizes CPAC. That dwarfs the amounts donated in recent years by allies of Trump’s rivals, all of whom are also scheduled to speak at the annual gathering, and seems likely to fuel already percolating suspicions among his opponents that the ACU has its thumb on the scale for Trump.

From what I gather, the Trump money is the real green and is part of his wealth that is the direct result of “good old American hard work”.

Now I would not turn down the easy money that can be gathered, you know, like pushing paper and giving speeches about Goldman Sachs; I admit I’m weak! But somewhere in the big picture Trump is really an amazing man. A builder, a provider, a producer and most definitly a leader.
