Welcome to the reality that is America under the Chicago machine. In many Rat areas, that is LITERALLY the only way to get anything done - there is no choice.

Acceptable losses. there comes a time when you have to say ‘We tries. They chose liberal governance” and walk away. Because by staying ‘GOP” we give the GOP our headcount/numbers to leverage. If we give them any power, they will use it against us. Rinse Peabrain is not America’s or our friend.

No games. Just destroy them. People like those you speak of will either fall in line, good...or actively fight on the side of liberalism, bad.

Either way we win.

One of the main reasons I like Trump is that he is TOUGH. He is not PC! And he will be tough like the generals he loves so well. The world needs his toughness and non-pc talk.
I am a people person; worked with disadvantaged and am in tune to people’s cues. Trump is sincere. I see a man who does love and care for people. He just has a knack and a desire for making deals. I don’t, but I sure can see that we need his talent right now, in this time of history.
He offends me at times ie attacking “enemies”. But that is what u do in war; that is what u do in making deals. You have to be tough.
I like Cruz too; but I think Trump is best for our country right now.

Trump’s explanation of why he gives to both Democrats and Republicans is that he is in real estate and to get things done he has to bribe officeholders—and he has no problems with doing so.

By the way, nobody seems to mind supporting candidates who are clearly being bribed by the donors. Look at Ben Carson, Cruz's and all the rest of the GOP's donors, and then people wonder why Cruz thought the last straw for fast track was McConnel and the Ex-IM bank, but not that Fast Track was giving Obama power to negotiate a deal without Congress and to pass a treaty-- which every corporation wants-- with a simple up-down vote. Cruz even voted against an amendment that would have made fast track better; it would have given Congress veto power over any attempt by China to join TPP. Even according to the advocates of TPP in the first place, TPP is supposed to be a way to counteract China!

So Trump gets hit for controlling politicians, but nobody seems upset that their candidate is controlled by the Cheap Labor Cabal or the Globalists.

Trump gave to the people in power because they were for sale. It’s what businessmen do...

How many times does Trump have to explain this?

I trust the person giving the bribes before I trust those taking them, which is every politician.

Here is an article covering Trump and his families donations.
I didn’t look at all the numbers posted above compared to this article.
The above numbers are probably correct.

But I don’t think you included these donations...
supposedly Trump has in the recent past has given $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation and in 2010 gave $50,000 to Bill Clinton and Rahm Emmanuel for Emmauel’s mayoral election in Chicago.

I sometimes wonder if people even listen to him. He admitted it in almost every speech.

I don’t care. He did those as a smart, apolitical businessman. That was then, this is now.

Rich people often contribute to both parties. Looks like he saw the problem with Obama. That gives him even more credibilty as one who will turn this country around and keep it safe.

Keep in mind that in his early years, he was doing lots of development in NYC and Atlantic City, places where you have to kiss the rings of the Democrat establishment if you want to get your permits, waivers, and other paperwork to happen.

But I'm not convinced that Cruz can win the nomination and then the general.

The GOPe is hoping, but not praying, that Cruz is not the candidate because he knows how to beat them. He won his senate seat in Texas against all odds. The GOPe was not happy. But we sure are happy!

He also won 9 cases before the Supreme court where he convinced at least two liberal justices that his argument was sound. That is not an easy thing to accomplish.

So, I would be inclined to think that his chances are about as good as Ronald Reagan in 1980.

It's the reality of business. Hell, I've even brought a dozen donuts to one party to get his signature and get the damn job done. He'd remind you of Christie....pompous a**..

But this is still a half a** backwards way of looking at things.

How much has Hillary received from the Wall Street folks?
