“hAs anyone ever bought an election before?”

Oh, absolutely. Every one of them has been bought and paid for. By someone else. But the unique thing about Trump is that he’s buying it all by himself, so he owns the whole shebang all by himself and owes no other campaign “contributor” a damn thing!

Right until he secures the nomination... Then he will bend to the will of the “donor class”.

He has to. The man only has $350 million in cash. He cannot bankroll his way to the Whitehouse...

To be fair, as I recall Trump said that he would finance his primary campaigns with his own funds (although he IS accepting donations and has a site for that purpose and will use that money also).

However, in the general election he plans to use RNC and other funds to finance the campaign. In my opinion, there’s nothing wrong with that - particularly considering the vast sums that the Hildabeast plans to have for the general election. Trump is not stupid...he will not unilaterally disarm.
