Trump Stuns Critics By Raising $11 MILLION DOLLARS In Just 48 Hours.
DC Whispers ^ | June 25, 2016 | DC Whispers

Posted on 06/23/2016 9:55:34 AM PDT by Mechanicos

The Mainstream Media and spineless Republican critics were out in force earlier this week bemoaning Donald Trump’s lack of a political fundraising operation. Team Trump shrugged off the criticism and then proceeded to initiate a fundraising effort that saw a groundswell of support from backers both great and small who quickly amassed a remarkable $11 million dollars into the coffers of Team Trump and the RNC.

Much to the chagrin of the Clinton Machine and Trump’s critics, it doesn’t appear the New York billionaire will have any trouble raising campaign cash.

The astonishing 48-hour $11 million mark was reported on by CNN just this morning.

"It is an amount that has stunned political operatives on both sides and is a clear example from the Paul Manafort-run Trump campaign for everyone to chill out and STFU about fears of the campaign not having enough cash to compete with the special-interest cash-rich Hillary Clinton operation..."

“We’re going to raise a lot of money,” Eric Trump said, subsequently heralding what he described as a “lean” campaign. “We don’t need the kind of money that Hillary (Clinton) needs.”

Trump seems to be stunning a lot of “experts” on a lot of issues. They’re going to be pretty stunned when the Trump Train rolls over these tired old experts & their tired old bull crap.

Don’t Rock the Boat, don’t rock the boat baby.

Mr. Trump just told the ‘establishment’ to pound sand, build their own castle and wash out to sea. He is firing on all rounds. This makes for greater odds as to how long until Ryan comes ‘around to it’ when making any ‘endorsement’ decision and learning to trust.

AMERICANS are fed up with DC. Mr. Trump, it seems is showing how much is too much.

Another important point is that of the 42 million in the Clinton campaign’s account 23 million of it is already promised to various folks for campaign ads in swing states, all of which are tied in skewed (to the left) polls.

In other words she only has 19 million.

The critics in the press will continue to claim that Trump's financial position is weak. CNN claimed that he needs 1,000 times this much to run the campaign, and that whatever was raised, doesn't go to Trump anyway, it goes to the party.

I bet DOJ will scrutinize those donations like they NEVER scrutinized Hillary's.

More significant that the dollars is that these people are not at all interested in seeing America fall into the abyss, imo.

Meanwhile, back at Clinton Campaign HQ, there are 800 paid staffers still trying to come up with a response to Trump’s speech yesterday, where he essentially called her out on committing treason by selling out American workers for Chinese cash, among a host of other things. So far, their best comeback has been “I am not a crook.”

Excellent.

I think Trump should try a money bomb in the future. I looked this up, and Ron Paul once got $6 million dollars in 24 hours! Trump’s supporters are easily as enthusiastic as Paul supporters, and there are more because Trump got the most votes in primary history. He might be able to top that.

I think that this is the Trump equivalent of “b!+@& slap” to the RNC, DNC, and their MSM toadie concern troll lackeys.

“We don’t need the kind of money that Hillary (Clinton) needs.”

Trump is probably much better served with a lean, mean and nimble campaign; rather than the bloated, bureaucratic, and ponderous one HRC has set up. I understand the HRC campaign has about 650 paid staffers. Diminishing returns likely set in after the first hundred or so on staff. By the time you have 500 staffers, sclerosis sets in. Trump’s experience in the private sector is serving him well. It will be fun watching Trump out-maneuver HRC at every turn.
