Not saying I like it, but it’s business. Almost all large CEO types donate to both sides.

You're becoming a Trump apologist. Trump doesn't pass the smell test of any real conservative, and is nothing more than a sideshow promoter to most of us.

He's doing a great service to this country by taking Obama to the woodshed in the national media, but he's not qualified in any way to be our nominee.

There's no way in hell that the center-right base is going to support this guy after all of the revelations about him. It's not only his financial support of liberals, he's also taken decidedly liberal positions in the past, and has said glowing things about the enemy.

You want to support someone for president who thinks universal health care is a swell idea? Whoa....

I’m primarily a Herman Cain supporter, actually.

I’m still hoping he gains steam. Until then I’m enjoying The Donald’s presence.

Many large businesspeople DO donate to both parties - look at newsmeat.com, it’s all out there, not just Trump, and usually has to do with keeping a target off their backs. A sad commentary on the relationship between business and politics, unfortunately. Pay to play.

Herman Cain is an exception to that though - I looked.
