he [Trump] said he won’t take money from lobbyists, but if regular folks wanted to donate he’d be honored to accept their donations

Beautiful, isn't it? I can hardly think of a better way for Trump to draw a clear distinction between himself and the rest of the field - including the Democrat side.

I'm gonna have to throw $25 his way just to be counted in his supporter tally.

It is a beautiful thing :-) I was just reading that Dr. Carson wasn’t taking lobbyist money either.

I watched a Trump video yesterday where he was at the Iowa State Fair in front of his helicopter getting ready to give rides to kids. He said he had a lobbyist call him recently and offered to give $5 million to his campaign. He thanked him for the offer and said no. The lobbyist wanted to know why he wouldn’t accept it. He said because if I accept it now, you’ll call me in 2 years and want a favor from me; and then said something like: I’ll have to tell you no, or I don’t want to owe anyone.
