He gave to Republicans as well and what I said about businesses giving to politicians of both parties is well known. Do you not know of any businesses that gave to both parties?

While you are talking about Trump’s tangential relationship to the Clintons, what about Cruz’s working for Bush in Washington DC and Heidi working for the Bush administration under Condoleeza Rice and her high level job at globalist bank Goldman Sachs? And her work at the Council on Foreign Relations which has been around since the 1920’s and has brazenly advocated for a one world government since that time? How about her work on the North American Union? You can’t possibly be that blind.

What troubles me deeply about Trump is his past enormous financial support of far left candidates and policies (some of that support being doled out very recently).

Ted Cruz attempted to point out the frightening interpretations of that 'generosity' to Bill O'Reilly last week ... to no avail, of course.

I have a lot of conservative friends who are in business, several of whom own thriving local businesses. Needless to say, their business ventures are not anywhere near as massive, or profit-producing, as Donald Trump's, but I know, without a doubt, that, even if their businesses would benefit greatly if they donated to political candidates such as Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, the Gang of Eight, etc., they would never open their checkbooks for such a purpose ... simply because they have deeply-held personal convictions, and strong beliefs regarding the legitimate (limited) role of government.

It's called being able to look at the big picture, and refusing to fund the purposeful destruction of both individual and economic liberty vs. lining one's own pockets. My good friends who are in business for themselves would always embrace the former. Donald Trump appears to often opt for the latter, and I am sick and tired of hearing the excuses that 'he did so as a businessman', or 'he also contributed to conservative candidates and causes'. Both excuses simply reflect the fact that he has no core political beliefs to which he is willing to hold fast. I don't care under what guise he contributed to the rise and increased power of leftists bent on re-writing the American vision. Doing so simply reveals the shallowness of his character and his insatiable desire for personal wealth and power. Such a man, who would sell his soul in order to increase his profits, does not deserve to be leader of the free world, because he is willing to place other people's freedoms in jeopardy because he himself worships at the altar of the almighty dollar.
