Trump manages to get others to leverage his campaign expenses. That limits the dirt level, because the places that don’t want to see him enough to put their money where their mouths are, he won’t visit.

Your headline should read: Trump Supporters Don’t Care How Much Trump Aided Dirty Politicians

People are seeing this, it’s part of the reason Ted “A Time For Lies” Cruz is cratering in the polls.

It’s a very trashy subject.

If by dirty, you mean Trump earned his money through hard work and building business relationships, then yes, I’m totally fine with that. I have emails from Cruz trying to pander for $35 to become a deputy delegate, but have yet to see Trump soliciting anyone for money.

Business over politics.

Do you think big donors are giving away millions to candidates out of the goodness of their hearts? No, they didn’t get wealthy by throwing away money, they expect something in return. They aren’t donating, they are purchasing.

So you can post red state watcher in news and activism but not red state .com.

Yeah

That makes sense. /s

Speaking of keeping Kasich out of the picture, has anyone asked Cruz yet what sort of veeps he’d consider, and whether he’d consider Rubio or Kasich?

Yeah Cruz has really taken to the sleazy money side of politics, sucking huge sums of dollars right up, almost like an Ivy League lawyer or something. Remember When all the Cruisers called him a “principled conservative”? LOL. Certainly don’t hear that one anymore.

Yes it is ... you can’t buy a cubic foot of concrete in NYC without them.

Yup, that's New York values. Instead of trying to clean up the corruption ol' Donnie boy just makes contributions to organized crime. This tells me the man is dishonest in his business dealings and cannot be trusted in business as well as politics.

Cruz won Iowa? I have to shake my head at the ignorance of his supporters at what he did to Ben Carson - not only ingorant, but, defending him. Don’t talk to me about ethanol - he’s in the back pocket of big oil. Poppy Bush has had him on a leash for many years - that’s spelled OIL. You can defend his sh** all you want, but, he is a sleaze bag, and Trump no longer supports abortion. People can cahnge their minds with new information - however, you stupid Cruzbots bring up things from years ago - and hang onto that meme. You can’t handle the fact that your candidate is and always has been an insider in the establishment. He was GWB’s brain and wrote his policies for him, which included amnesty. Why don’t you educate yourself to facts instead of spewing talking points? Trump gave much more to Republicans than he did Democrats. However, that fact escapes your bias. He is a businessman and has properties in the major cities of the U.S., which unfortunately, are controlled by Democrats. Once again - educate yourself as to who Ted really is - he is a globalist, willing to sell out our sovereignty, while you yammer about money Trump gave to campaigns, and the fact that Trump no longer believes in abortion. Dear God - grow up and do some research, and stop spewing stupid talking points which have no merit. This country is at stake, and if we lose it - who gives a sh** about political donations?

Do you seriously believe that any president can change the abortion laws? Do you? Do you think Cruz is going to? If you do, then I have a bridge in Brooklyn I’d like to sell you. OUr country is in deep, deep trouble, and you carry on about trivial things. Cruz won’t do a dam*ed thing about the refugees pouring into our country, and the he** they will cause on our soil. IF they succeed, then you won’t have to worry about abortion or who gae what money to whom - you’ll be trying to hang onto your own neck.

Yikes...good point. Trump has mentioned him too which bothers me. The Ronald Reagan Bush SR compromise comes to mind, only Kasich is a raving lefty loon and a danger to our nation.

yes, business with every shade democrat who he later brags that they will do his bidding because he paid them off

THIS is the guy Conservatives are supposed to vote for?

If so, Conservatism in dead. So is the GOP, but w ealready knew that.

And the only Reagan Conservative in the race, all the strumpets do is slander him and defend their adulterous Donald.

Yeah, I’m not sure the Bush family is any less leftist than Kasich, but Kasich has come out of the closet as more of a leftist (if not in other ways).

If somehow Trump does miraculously manage to wrestle the nomination from the GOPe/Cruz alliance, the argument should be that the GOPe has been telling us all along that Trump isn’t a conservative, so a real conservative should be what’s added to his ticket.

Still, just as Trump really advocates touch-back amnesty and Cruz pushed for the TPA and Corker amendment to ease TPP and then of course those amendments to the Gang of Eight bill that supposedly were for the opposite of what they really were.

And those are the two best candidates we have. By far.
