Trump Is Financially Ruining the Republican Party (the party that funded Lisa Murkowski's reelection)
New York Times ^ | 3/31/24 | Michelle Cottle

Posted on 03/31/2024 5:16:34 AM PDT by cotton1706

Donald Trump is someone you should think carefully about hitching your financial fortunes to. The guy is a gifted carnival barker, no doubt. But when it comes to serious business, he is a bad bet. Many of his ventures, from vodka and steaks to casinos and “university” degrees, have flopped like dying fish. Declaring corporate bankruptcy seems to be one of his favorite hobbies. And even when he wriggles away from failure largely unscathed, the other parties involved aren’t always so fortunate. Where money is involved, anyone still foolish enough to crawl into bed with him should be prepared for the experience to end in tears.

Which leads me to gently note: Hey, Republican Party, pay attention! You are being herded toward potential financial ruin. The red flags are smacking you in the face. Wake up and smell the grift!

Well.Trump is a bad guy (public enemy #1)
How do we know he’s a bad guy?
Cause they tell us over and over again. Absent any proof.

I would tend to agree considering his latest venture making the bible about America instead of Jesus. Not cool

The media is suddenly concerned about their good buddies at the RNC and their finances. The uni-party depends on those funds to keep the gravy train rolling just as much as they depend on the money from the left. The truth is that conservatives are no longer donating as much money to the party but are donating directly to conservative candidates and especially to President Trump.

I read yesterday that the majority of Biden’s funding is from large donors but Trump’s, over 60%, is from individuals in sums of less that $2000. Those small donations transfer into individual votes. Most of those people do not listen to flashy campaign ads or take the advice of news media. They know who they are voting for and no ad from the Democrats or Republican never-Trumpers is going to change their minds.

“The guy is a gifted carnival barker”, and Michelle Cottle is a no talent prostitute working for a paid propaganda organ. Measure for measure.

I do not agree with any of her points about Trump, but as to the GOP, yes, in EVERY quarter the Dims are hugely getting far more dollars into their campaigns.

Look at the stagnation of the American people and standard of living from 2008 to 2016...

Look at the dramatic rise in employment of minorities, the lower taxes, lower gas prices, better general welfare of America and American people, the southern border of our country being guarded much stronger from 2016 to 2019 (Covid possibly placed to slow down America).

Look at the dramatic fall in the standard of living for Americans, the invasion of 10 to 15 million illegals over our now opened southern border, cost of gasoline and groceries shooting through the roof from 2020 to 2024...

Now look at what political party was leading our country and who was president during these years...

WHAT THE H*LL DOES THIS TELL YOU??????????????????

Speaking for a friend, donations may occur when stated principles are adhered to, honored, respected.

Trump isn’t financially ruining the Republican party he’s weeding it out of those who are.

The bible has a nice leather jacket and comes with a copy of the Constitution and Lee Greenwood’s music.

It looks and seems better than some study bibles I’ve come across, and only comes in King James Version, rather than some strange newer ones.

It’s not funding his campaign, and organizations make money off all sorts of bibles.

I initially was surprised, but after seeing the bible site, I can see the benefit of getting people a keepsake like this.

ROFLOL. THE RNC GETS 20% OF TRUMP’S FUNDRAISING. I DON’T LIKE IT, THEY USE IT TO REFLECT RINOS.

And he's about to make over $3.5 billion for his share of Truth Social.

She sounds unhinged and on the verge of doing something really bad, is there a Red Flag Law where she/it lives? If so it needs to be used before she/it goes over the edge and does something terrible...

I am so thankful that the far-left, commie RAT turd rollers down at the New Yawk Slimes are so concerned about the Republican Party. What would we do with them worrying about us? BTW: Who the hell is this bimbo, Cottle, and why should I care about what psychobabble escapes her empty skull and pollutes the environment around her?

The gravy train is over.

Why should i give anything to people who don’t thank me, don’t listen to me, and once elected, choose a different path than the one they promised? May as well give money to democrats. Umm, no.

Trump doesnt need the kind of cash Biden does to convince folks to vote him. When you have an actual record of accomplishment, a racist senile pedophile opponent and a resolute base you dont need so much cash😂
