The latest Trump bashing goes like this: the evidence clearly shows, Trump has consistently supported establishment candidates, has given thousands of dollars to entrenched politicians, and has surrounded himself with long-time Republican establishment operatives....
Keep in mind, all that time he was donating, Trump was not running for anything. He was using politicians to get business done.
The calculating pols knew this, so Trump was on the politicians/ hit list as a sucker who/d write a check, no questions asked.....political extortion at its finest.
BTW, these same pols are lying low ....maybe running scared now.... b/c I would not be surprised if the candidates confided in Donald about their sordid love life, spilled damaging opposition research WRT their opponents and damning stuff about well-known pols---in order to get bigger donations.
They/re wishing now they hadn't said the things they did.......b/c Donald knows plenty.
========================================
BTW, did you notice you/re true blue conservative Cruz is getting ready to ally w/ the same people who have lacerated, isolated, and demeaned conservatives these past years? Getting his sorry carcass into the Oval Office is Cruz/s main concern....not conservatism.
CORRECT!
Maybe, but then Trump turns around and accuses Cruz of being beholden to doners.
Can't have it both ways.
Excellent post.
I have a bit of a different take on Trump's donations. My impression is that people came to him asking for handouts. Trump didn't seek them out. Everyone likes to key in on the liberal Trump gave money to but leave out all the conservatives he also funded. I wonder if Trump ever turned anyone down? He seems to me like he was an easy mark. Just my thoughts.
So that makes it okay then - he's someone willing to screw the rest of us over for his own personal profit - and we should vote for him for that reason? Amazing logic.
How can you deny Cruz the support of the Republican party when Trump has been accumulating Demorat support and voters all along. Sheesh....wake up!
It makes you almost as mad as when, prior to the nomination, Rondod Reagan selected Richard Schweikart as his running mate! /sarc
sad truth, but ask what is behind it?
Did CRUZ GO TO THEM?
Or did THEY go TO CRUZ?
Both of us know, THEY WENT TO CRUZ, not him go to them.
