In his words to raise money for Veteran's Charities?  (In all likelyhood because he's afraid of a blonde woman)


They're still waiting for the money.

The Wall Street Journal reports that they surveyed 19 of the 22 groups that the Trump campaign said they would be donating to, and discovered that only $2.4 million has been given to the veterans. The event raised roughly $6 million.

So 40% of the gross was donated.  Even in the private sector, 40% net profit is considered excellent.  Or do you think the owners of the venue and all the stage hands and other workers should have donated 100% of their pay too?
   
Oh wait,  that IS what socialists think.

That's inaccurate. That's what the take is when you outsource your fundraising to a professional fundraiser. That's not what this was billed as. Unless Trump got paid for his celebrity status, the net should have been much higher.

This sounds like liberals who think gross sales = profit.

Or suckers who believe that Trump can't release his tax returns because he's under constant audit.

Off topic, but you reminded me about the bit where Sanders didn't release his tax returns because his wife did his taxes.
And really, shouldn't we be going after the dens?

Sorry, I don't like getting lied to by someone running for my party's nomination. I'm a tax guy, and Trump's assertions are ridiculous.

What, we're supposed to buy the infantile "Lyin' Ted" rant because Trump says it's so? 

Akynsky's Rules for Radicals rule #13:

"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." 

Along with Rule #5, "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon," Trump is falling into true Democratic form.

The direst trick the left pulled was making the entire 2016 election about this instead of their candidates. A corrupt - o crat, one-percenter, criminal, and a communist.

I don't see many other options than Cruz.  Yes, if Trump is the nominee, I will vote for him, but I don't trust him either.

And thus lies the problem.

The RNC is once again doing a poor job with a Presidential election. 2008 and 2012 were disasters with the RNC running unelectable candidates and it looks like they will go for 3 in a row.

Rience Priebus will go down as the laughing stock of the RNC after this fiasco.

I'm glad you're finally admitting that a Trump nominee will result in an electoral bloodbath. Every poll shows Trump turning solid red states into purple or blue.

If you had ever bothered to read what I've been writing you will see I haven't changed on anything.

The RNC will once again throw another election.  A Cruz nomination will be even worse.  The RNC at this point can't even organize and run a lemonade stand.
