“.............However, of the nearly $420,000 Trump has donated to committees, the largest recipient has been the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee with $116,000 - or more than one fourth of his total contributions to all party and political action committees.”

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said this week in Iowa that there aren’t many evangelical Christians who hail from Cuba.

“Just remember this - you gotta remember, in all fairness, to the best of my knowledge, not too many evangelicals come out of Cuba, okay?” Mr. Trump said at a campaign event Tuesday. “Just remember that...just remember.”...

Seven months in, none of your crap sticking, one candidate out and another one headed that direction, do yo ever ask yourself if maybe you have the worst selection of race horses ever?

In 2019 will you please tell the forum who you’re backing in advance, so I’ll know at least one person I shouldn’t be backing?

Here is the $116,000 in context, from the paragraph above:

Trump s donations to various political action committees and 527 groups also demonstrate his bipartisan checkbook.

During the most recent election cycle, Trump contributed $170,000 to the Republican Governor s Association, $50,000 to the ultra-conservative American Crossroads PAC, $30,400 to the National Republican Senatorial Committee and $10,000 to the Democratic Party of New York.

However, of the nearly $420,000 Trump has donated to committees, the largest recipient has been the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee with $116,000 — or more than one fourth of his total contributions to all party and political action committees.

So at least $250,000 went to the Republicans, which is more than twice the amount given to Democrats.
