The interesting approach continues. I’ll watch. Reminds me of the movie, “Gangs of New York.”

Trump is far from perfect but he will bring some NYC streetwise energy into this campaign.

Actually few short minutes if you were watching Faux news. :-)

You take the most flak when you are over the target.

This writer is far too over-the-top to be taken seriously. Witless ape? And it looks like he had his unabridged thesaurus out while putting his little rant together.

"Who on FR still thinks The National Review is the go to for conservatives?"

It's the go-to for the New-York-Canadian import/merchant Mafia. See my comment #21 for a laugh. The new political who's-who is mostly less than 100 years descended from Europe. Colorful, aren't they.

Indeed, anybody who promises go come between the GOPe and their cheap immigrant labor, as Trump has, will get the same treatment.

And because Ross Perot proclaimed that he wanted to "look under the hood" and fix the economy, Bill Clinton won the presidency twice with less than 50% of the vote.

This smells like a New York Donald-Hillary deal.

Just to make it clear, Trump, in toto, did not go bankrupt. Each venture, such as a building project, is incorporated as a separate entity. That project may go bankrupt, but not Trump as a person.

“While it has been an open secret for several years that Donald Trump was once a heavy Democratic donor, a deeper analysis of campaign records shows that the real estate billionaire’s contributions skewed even further left during the 2006 mid-term election, the crucial contest that put Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi in power and arguably helped pave the way for Barack Obama’s political agenda.

Between 1989 and 2010, The Donald gave $314,300 to Democratic groups and candidates and $290,600 to Republicans, according to a Daily Caller analysis of records maintained by the Center for Responsive Politics.

But Trump’s donation gap was even larger during the mid-2000s, which saw the end of Republican congressional majorities and the ascendance of the Democratic party.

Overall in the 2006 election cycle, Trump and his son, Donald Trump Jr., donated $77,200 to Democrats versus only $24,250 on Republicans. Looking back to the 2004 cycle, the pair donated $40,500 to Democrats and only $17,250 to the GOP.....................”

Yeh last night I heard I think Brit Hume say nobody is more conservative than George Will who writes for the National Review and I almost threw up in my mouth. :-)

So out of $9 billion what is that? 3 cents. LOL!

He gave the Dems $24,300 more than the republicrats. Oooo treason. LOL!

All big business men give to both parties. They have to do business. They try to seem somewhat neutral. You will have to indict every other business person in America just to burn Trump for some chump change.

George Will is a GOPe shill of the highest order. In addition he’s petty and mean spirited about it. He is a RINO’s dream.

Yes, he has driven the author spittle flecked mad. Whatever Trump is or is not, this article is a profane over the top rant so extreme that is discredits the NR and the author.
