Financial conservative? Trump? Are you kidding?
Trump's donation list is a who's who of Democratic party power brokers including former Senator Hillary Clinton, former Senator John F. Kerry, Rep. Charles B. Rangel, Sen. Charles E. Schumer, the late Senator Ted M. Kennedy, the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee of New York (which he gave $125,000 as of 2011), and the list goes on and on including donations to Harry Reid, $50,000 to Rahm Emanuel's run for mayor, etc, etc.
Trump is so obviously BSing conservatives desperate for an outspoken voice, and yet people keep falling for it over and over and over again. Donald Trump is NOT a conservative. Your not a conservative if you believe in nationalized healthcare such as what exists in Canada, and that is precisely what "the Donald" wrote in his own book.
Trump is for Trump. All he really cares about is keeping his brand in the spotlight. He knows the GOP is rudderless right now so he feeds on that and tells conservatives what they want to hear. If the Democrat party falls into the same rut some years from now, Trump will be out trying to sell them on the idea he's a liberal champion. And when he can't sham conservatives or liberals, he'll be off claiming to be a "no labels" guy who "might" run for President as an independent.
So he was paying-to-play? As a real estate developer? Shocked!
Reagan was a democrat once, too.
I’ll watch this, see how it develops.
