Old news! Knew about Trump's contributions to the 'Rats a few weeks ago. Mark Levin has rightfully hammered Trump on this.

And it's no excuse for Trump defenders to justify this as "just doing business in New York" (or elsewhere).

The fact is that a 64 year old man shouldn't be asking for his party's nomination for POTUS without, at a minimum, demonstrating some kind of identification with the party for some period of time.

Although he should be credited with his courage to elevate the profile of the Obama constitutional eligibility issue, it nevertheless is preposterous for Trump to be a serious contender for the GOP presidential nomination. The presidential nomination should be bestowed upon a Republican and Trump is a Johnny-come-lately "Republican" of convenience.

George Soros bailed out Donald Trump in 2008.

The Donald would have gone bankrupt without Soros’ millions...

If Trump got on the ticket, any ticket, doesn’t matter, he’d have STANDING.

Trump’s contribs may have been intended to drum up support for his future candidacy, but A) there’s no way in hell any of those names would support him and B) pulllease. :’)

It's SOP in DC to donate to people that you might need access to in order to protect your business interests. I am an admirer of Levin but he is wrong about this.
