Lets throw the self-funding guy over because we are acting child like? How has acting adult like and doing the same thing over and over doing for us?

50 million dead babies, several pointless wars, barbarians at the gate, huge debt, a group of supreme justice overlords dropping bombs on decency and liberty? It goes on and on.

I think your condescending crystal ball is horribly wrong lots of Trump supports are paying attention and quite closely.

Calling Trump a statist is like call a Bush a conservative or calling Cruz charismatic.

Trump is not "self-funding". He is using donations and proceeds from the sale of campaign merchandise to pay for part of his campaign expenses, and he has "loaned" his campaign money for most of the other expenses. Of course, he expects to be paid back for his "loans" with interest from future donations. So the best you can say is that he is fronting his campaign the money that he expects to receive later. But that is not the same as "self-funding". If he were truly self-funding, he would not accept donations, and the money he is fronting his campaign would be donations from him, not loans.

Oh, and who is most of the money that the campaign is spending going to? Why right back to Donald and his companies! His campaign is renting office space from his own companies (at a hefty rate, I am sure). So win or lose, Trump's company stands to make money from his supporters.

doing the same thing over and over excuse - when no one is suggesting that - is like carrying a huge sign that says “I HAVE NO RATIONAL ARGUMENT.”

Get back to me when you have an argument that is applicable. Until then love on your planned parenthood partial birth abortion pro big government pro TARP pro Stimulus pro bail out pro crony fake. You will be the embarrassed one.
