The problem with this whole “race” is that Trump is self-funding, so he doesn’t have to concern himself with legal expenditures, getting support or even having coherent positions to get support. People seem to like this Daddy Warbucks approach, though, so I guess in the future all presidential candidates must be self-funding billionaires. In other words, able to buy all the publicity, travel, etc. that they want as it takes their fancy - and buy the election.
I think we have a problem with the way we fund elections. Frankly, I don’t think candidates should be allowed to do it without getting money from outside sources, or we will have nothing but the mega-rich running in the future.
” I don’t think candidates should be allowed to do it without getting money from outside sources,”
So, you want all candidates to be bought and paid for before getting into office. Sadly, only the honest ones will stay bought, though, for varying definitions of the word “honest.”
I think you’re missing the point that he’s spent the least... probably because it’s not sometime else’s money. Talk about spending, look at Jeb.
