The amount of money spent to make Trump unelectable and to increase his negatives is amazing.

The media and the GOP establishment have continually attacked and tried to destroy Trump.

Imagine if this huge amount of money had been spent to support conservative candidates in the House, Senate and local races. Imagine how much could have been accomplished.

Imagine if Republicans had expended the same effort to support their own candidates.

It’s a first. Without looking it probably approached a billion dollars.

This just clearly shows us that the Republican Establishment are the enemy as much as the Democrats. They never tried to beat Obama half as hard as they have tried to take out Trump. That tells you all you need to know about them. I only hope that America can come together for real change and elect Trump President.

Trump spent the least of anyone in the race.

Lowest of all.

Yet there he is.

Outside organizations, which can support or oppose a presidential hopeful without coordinating with a candidate or party, have spent $43.3 million against Trump, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

And still - they failed...

The funny thing is that I keep hearing how Trump needs to make peace with the GOP-e, so he can enlist the services of these losers. Turns out that advertising your crap 24/7 and harassing voters over the phone isn’t a good way to get people to like your candidate; to do that, you need conservatism.
