If trump were worth 10 billion, spending one billion would not be an issue.
Wait, so does that mean he will be in somebody’s pockets? That’s the argument against these other candidates who aren’t self funding billionaires. Right?
That does it for me.
I'm gonna vote for that little gay Cuban guy...or maybe the Canadian.;-)
Most of his wealth is non liquid. I don’t get why people assume billionaires have a cash vault like Scrooge McDuck where he can swim in his liquid money.
If Trump secures the nomination, the media will quit saying how astonished they are by all the crowds he gets and they will start dragging out skeletons that they've been collecting for over thirty years.
If the $10 billion net worth is mostly in real estate around the world, then liquidity would be an issue considering the cost of a general election campaign.
Or course. Any General Election candidate is going to need to raise funds
Odd how your Cruz bots somehow thing your behind the door fund raising is just fine but it some how wrong for the GENERAL ELECTION nominee to do it.
Spend 10% of your wealth.
Please spare us the habitual knee jerk attack bot postings and think for a change
Start selling stuff. Or take a margin loan out like Cruz did.
So now the loans and contributions are not a big deal...
Oh BS. Why should he let the GOP elites keep the money that will be raised for the Presidency. You want the GOPe even stronger then they are already. I am glad that Trump will take money for the General. If the RNC didn’t take a dime during the general then I’d be more critical of Trump, but nope they will raise money on Trump and keep it. No way.
Good Deal!
I can hardly wait to donate EVEN MORE!
And just a note to the Cruz and Cabana supporters: It’s over. Your guy lost. My condolences, but it’s time to move on. Posting this tripe just clogs up a good forum.
Cruz tried to hide his loans.
Odd how your Cruz bots somehow thing your behind the door fund raising is just fine but it some how wrong for the GENERAL ELECTION nominee to do it.
This makes it sound like Trump switched positions on something. And that just simply can’t be right...
I have no problem with a candidate raising funds to compete in an election.
This article is about Trump saying he is self funding his campaign, but this is actually just a gimmick to get to the general election. This will just be another thing Trump “EVOLVES” on.
Is there anything he says that isn’t like shifting sand and that isn’t negotiable?
I hope he does this through SMALL donors, I would have to change my mind about Trump if he starts taking corporate donations!!!!!!
you are projecting.
It was Trump who made an issue of this.
And the Canadian isn't a fussy eater.
No longer “self-funding”??? This guy is a whirling dervish! And, he’s gonna get Mehico to pay for the Trump Wall? Anybody believe that now?
