The media and the GOP establishment have continually attacked and tried to destroy Trump.
Imagine if this huge amount of money had been spent to support conservative candidates in the House, Senate and local races. Imagine how much could have been accomplished.
Imagine if Republicans had expended the same effort to support their own candidates.
It’s a first. Without looking it probably approached a billion dollars.
This just clearly shows us that the Republican Establishment are the enemy as much as the Democrats. They never tried to beat Obama half as hard as they have tried to take out Trump. That tells you all you need to know about them. I only hope that America can come together for real change and elect Trump President.
That is some serious legislation, Congress will have to devise to pay back their donors.
Trump spent the least of anyone in the race.
Lowest of all.
Yet there he is.
Exactly . . . bttt
It’s a first. Without looking it probably approached a billion dollars.
$$$$$$$
They are claiming a mere $43,000,000.00. No way. It was far more than that, not counting the foreign turds weighing in against him.
Amazing. We have a tank instead of a paper tiger for once.
My only fear is he goes up against Sanders. In today’s America, Sanders would probably win.
The #NeverTrump “conservatives” are still determined to give the White House to Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless, by default. If there was as much opposition expressed in keeping Herself out of the Oval Office, as there is to keep The Donald out, Herself would be living in exile already.
But no, there is some kind of principle involved here. Just what it is, I have no inkling.
Maybe somebody from Bizarro World can explain it for me.
There is a coronation coming. And it ain’t for the prom, either.
There was a thread about a month ago spending against Trump was around $522 million or so.
Didn't the Jeb campaign spend $150 million in the lead up to New Hampshire?
It also confirms that they thought Trump was too Conservative.
I know that will blow some people’s minds, but as you point out, they don’t go after Leftists.
They go after us. They go after Trump.
Man I can’t believe how many folks are still in denial over this.
[They are claiming a mere $43,000,000.00. ]
Trump should run ads with this number to target Bernie supporters, as an example of how much crony money the GOPe spent, vs. his frugal budget.
The Cheap Labor Express has deep pockets, they are not done yet
[Didn’t the Jeb campaign spend $150 million in the lead up to New Hampshire? ]
I would imagine the $43M was spent SPECIFICALLY on the #NeverTrump campaign. Jeb’s $150M would include regular campaign costs.
Mike Murphy claims he only made “in the six figures” off the Right to Rise Bush Super Pac (raised over $100 million).
Other reports put his take at $14 million.
You are RIGHT they ARE NOT done yet!!! I DON’T trust these BASTARDS in any way shape or form!!! THEY are going to do EVERYTHING they can to help Hillary!!!
And still - they failed...
Does that include the 60,000 negative ads that Trump mentioned in his victory speech.....?
The funny thing is that I keep hearing how Trump needs to make peace with the GOP-e, so he can enlist the services of these losers. Turns out that advertising your crap 24/7 and harassing voters over the phone isn’t a good way to get people to like your candidate; to do that, you need conservatism.
its an election, not a coronation.
