That will be interesting to see.

Here in CA, Meg Whitman spent $140 million od her own money and still not get elected governor.

Is he willing to spend that kind of money?

That is the question I have about Trump.

In his case Trump needs to spend somewhere in the $200 to $300 Million range to run in the primaries.

If he gets the nomination figure another $500 to $600 Million in the general election. So your talking close to $1 Billion of his fortune to run.

So does he sell assets to raise the money or borrow it, he does not have that kind of cash in liquid investments like Perot did.

What scares me is the possibility of him running as an Independent in the General Election. That will just hand the keys to the White House to that evil incarnate, witch Hillary Clinton. Just like Ross Perot handed the keys to her husband in l992 when he ran on a Third Party ticket against George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton.

If he don't spend it, likely it will be worthless anyway.

From Drudge a few days back. Zimbabweans have until September to turn in their old bank notes, which some people sell as souvenirs to tourists.

Bank accounts with balances of up to 175 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars will be paid $5. Those with balances above 175 quadrillion dollars will be paid at an exchange rate of $1 to 35 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars.

This could happen here in a heartbeat.

He'll spend some of it in a publicity-garnering run in the primaries before dropping out. Then the rest will go to Hillary's campaign.
