Donald Trump Says He'll Spend 'What It Takes' To Win
The Huffington Post's Entertainment ^ | July 17, 2015 | Scott Conroy

LACONIA, N.H. -- How much is of his personal fortune is Donald Trump willing to drop on his 2016 presidential campaign? Whatever it takes to come out on top, he told The Huffington Post on Thursday.

“You saw my statement yesterday, so it’s pretty irrelevant,” Trump said, alluding to a press release in which his campaign placed his net worth in excess of $10 billion. “I’ll do what I have to do.”

Trump has already contributed at least $1.8 million of his own money to his nascent White House bid, which he launched last month, but that may be only the beginning.

Asked during a brief interview in the picturesque New Hampshire Lakes Region whether he might eventually spend up to $1 billion trying to win the presidency, Trump didn't dismiss the idea out of hand.

“It depends on what it takes,” he said.

Trump spoke during an interview at the small private airport here as he waited to call in to "The O’Reilly Factor" on The Fox News Channel after headlining an evening rally that drew several hundred people. He noted that he has risen to the top of most recent polls of Republican candidates and said he's gaining even more steam, as he feeds off his big crowds.

“I do see the enthusiasm,” he said. “I mean, forget it, right? The driver said, ‘I’ve never seen that before, and I’ve been in New Hampshire for 25 years.’ So it’s very nice to see the receptivity. People are tired of being ripped off.”(continued)

Cruz....."It is amazing that the wisdom of the chattering class to the Republicans is always, always, always ‘Surrender your principles and agree with the Democrats,’ “That’s been true for my entire lifetime. .....The chattering classes have consistently said, ....‘You crazy Republicans have to give up on what you believe and become more like Democrats.’ And, I would note, every time Republicans do that we lose.”

Well, You obviously have some real issues as some recall your emails asking for certain help. Nuff said. I will gladly provide the chaplain with my name and SOA GA # and he can check with Robert Noe who runs the MACVSOG Site plus email the SOA. Not once have I stated a person cannot get SC for and physical disability incurred in service. It bothers many of us that PTSD, which was same same as shell shock was to WWII and Korean War vets has made a damn joke for anyone who wants to claim a bit of what I call paranoid behavior now. Many have learned to act since 2008.Those who have been in combat fine. Ujoungbou, Korea was a fat cat assignment next to any combat. My friend the BDE S-3 NCOIC, an SF SGM who was on White Star, used to spend time off there.

Would it be fair to say you were also “concerned” about Ronald Reagan’s past record as a registered democrat? How about Reagan’s past record being a union activist?

Trump has been a private citizen so far. He could support any politician to grease the skids of his highly successful business. He was never a republican official. Therefore he was free to donate to whichever politician to prevent attacks on his business interests. What would be Trump’s purpose at this stage in his life (nearing age 70) to obfuscate his real intentions? Is it possible he sees where the country is going and wants to change the direction? May be that is the legacy he wants to leave behind.

Obviously you use it. I do not look for things to turn someone in. Someone had a Captain from CCN MACVSOG kicked off this site. Possibly you or a friend did as he would not back down to you or your gang.

You questioned my service with CCS, MACVSOG etc.

I just emailed the chaplain. I am not playing your little game that 3-4th graders play. Out.

You claimed: “Someone had a Captain from CCN MACVSOG kicked off this site.”
Post 109
Now, what was the handle as throwing that out there without backing it up smells of BS.

What in the world are you going on about? What chaplain? Father Mulcahy? Do you think you’re still in the service? I was a Disabled Veterans Outreach Program Representative (DVOP) and Local Veterans Employment Representative (LVER) for many years at the state unemployment office, so I learned how to spot a fake veteran or glory hog a mile away.

He twice claims a macvsog cap got banned from this site, without proof of his statement.
And apparently he believes it is somehow your fault?

Not a clue!
Seems to be more BS and outright lying since he won’t back it up.
