So what’s the deal on Trump and donations to people like Terry McAuliffe? Why would he donate to the Governor’s race in Virginia, and especially why would he donate to the Democrat?

It’s seems like Trump gets pass after pass on these things and his explanation is “I donate to lots of people.”

Yeah - and lots of them are Democrats and I’d like to know why?

That Virginia Governor’s race wasn’t 20 years ago either. It was less than three years ago. McAuliffe won 47 % - 45 % with six percent going to the Libertarian.

That was a case when we needed all hands on deck.

Once you get rich enough you either donate to both parties of they sick federal burocircy on you. That big Microsoft anti-trust cases year hack happened because MS wasn't donating money to either party. Once they started donations the case went away. Federal politics is one giant protection racket and Trump's give more to Dems than to the GOP because they're in power in the areas that he is doing business in.

I don’t have an answer for that. McCauliffe, especially, is a guy who should never hold any public office. I still remember the Global Crossing deal.
