Top GOP Donor Wants Donald Trump Banned from First Debate
Brietbart ^ | July 7, 2015 | Staff

A top establishment Republican donor reportedly wants Donald Trump banned from the first presidential debate... And that is not sitting well with some of the party’s top donors, many of whom favor pro-amnesty legislation and do want to see their establishment darlings like Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)

80%

challenged on the issue.

According to an Associated Press report, “Republican donor John Jordan said Monday that GOP leaders should take steps to block Trump’s access to the first presidential debate in early August.”

“Someone in the party ought to start some sort of petition saying, ‘If Trump’s going to be on the stage, I’m not going to be on there with him,'” Jordan told the AP. “I’m toying with the idea of it.”

Heard a talk-show claim if Trump isn’t pulled from debates, Jordan is pulling his money out.

Why don’t those rich donors just buy 90 minutes of airtime on FoxNews and have their own debate with whom they prefer?

Or just have a 90 minute infomercial about Jeb.

I am curious who this Jordan idiot is and why I have never heard of him. Republican donors? Adelson or the Koch’s. Who the hell is Jordan and why are we supposed to listen to him.

John Jordan is the owner of Jordan Vineyard & Winery in Sonoma. I’ll bet he has a lot of illegal aliens working there. Time for a surprise ICE workforce eligibility audit!

All that money and he won’t get his way. The only reason to watch the debates is because of Trump.

If Trump’s going to be on the stage, I’m not going to be on there with him

Right...that's the American way...if you're terrified of someone, get him banned. Flood the stage with jello-spined pablum spouters.
KICK AZZ, DONALD!!

The Cheap Labor Express is getting very nervous.

Their sizable investment buying the GOP is in jeopardy.

Jordan is pulling his money out.”

I’d tell him to “go for it” or “whatever”. So only Cruz and Trump show up - they’d end up having the largest viewer audience they’ve ever had.

America-Hater John Jordan is a California winery owner
needing criminal illegals, who works with
Romney to destroy conservatives.

His wines at the Jordan vinyard and Jordan winery
should be boycotted across America.
