Isn't that a good thing, that the Republican donor class doesn't like Trump? Isn't his whole campaign about eliminating their influence? Geesh.

If Trump goes for small donations to finance the campaign for President, and of course he should, he'll get massive financial support from small donations.

Can one Trump supporter tell me where Trump is going to get the $1B he needs to run. Hillary's SuperPac is already buying $90M in media buys. Trump hasn't raised a penny in his life for a campaign and in 8 weeks he needs to raise $1B.

He can't self finance as he is not that liquid and has said he won't anyway.

If they want to see the down-ticket Republicans win, they will cough it up. Lots of folks are quadrennial voters that turn-out to vote specifically for the POTUS and they want bother to vote at all without watching the TV ads.

Trump is going to have to do more than call his opponent names to win over voters in the general election.

I’m not “enthusiastic” about the gop-e money men who seem to want to continue the Uniparty tyranny. F’em...

The GOPe donor class is nonfunctional and not needed. Trump has self-funded so far and has flummoxed and frustrated the influence peddlers. The last time I saw an RNCC plea, it was actually set up to pump money to the ‘Re-elect Paul Ryan’ campaign.

That’s not bad news, is it supposed to be?

Trump’s got some powerful wealthy friends and We the people can help make it up

Donald already showed he can win the battle of media and social media coverage

Hillary can put out millions on glossy TV ads and Donald can destroy them with a tweet

The TV debates will be awesome
Can’t wait

I’ll take that as a strong endorsement of Trump.

wow. Please don’t knock me over with all the facts. He has no chance of raising that much which is why he will lose in dramatic fashion if he were to ever get the nomination.

Not everybody depends on illegals, least of all industry leaders in Manhattan. Your reasoning is nonsense and trumpian.

You are busted. At his victory speech last night the room was packed with many of the richest business people in America and he even named some of them. Funding will not be a problem. Heck I might even donate then.

He won New York with under 40 thousand. He does so much with less, Why would he need a billion when you have seen how ineffective the normal methods have been against him.

He Likely would win the general with a tenth of the cost.
