Donald Trump says buh-bye… — 8 Comments

1. I heard he didn’t answer how to get the campaign moving again (H/T today’s Ben Shapiro Show) correctly.

   Bridge of Death Skit. Not sure who is Corey and who is Trump.

2. Wonder if this played into Lewandowski’s being fired:

   According to filings just released by the Federal Election Commission, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign only had $1.3 million in cash on hand at the beginning of the month, and raised a paltry $3.1 million during the filing period. The filings paint a dismal picture of Trump’s fundraising operations. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee largely self-funded his primary campaign in the form of repayable loans to his campaign, but has stated that he will be soliciting donations for the general election campaign. For donors already concerned about Trump’s reported lack of interest in fundraising, these latest numbers are unlikely to soothe their worries. With $3.1 million raised, the campaign also took on more than $2.2 million in loans, giving the self-described billionaire $1.3 million on hand. In comparison, presumptive rival Hillary Clinton’s latest campaign filings show that the former secretary of state’s presidential campaign has nearly $42.5 million in cash on hand, after raising $26.4 million last month.

   $1.3 million cash in hand to Clinton’s $42.5. Wow.

3. Make that Clinton’s $42.5 million.

4. Ann:
   Double wow!

   Put a fork in him. Was the guiding assumption for Trump that free media would equalize paid hard cash access to the market of ideas (advertising)?

   And then there is the effect that not all of Donald’s free media helps Donald. Especially when hard money can shape Donald’s “message” into tools to use against him.

   Captain Obvious signing out.

5. Rick Moran’s assessment of the Trump campaign:

6. Trump reminds me of the John Randolph of Roanoke best quote of all eternity regarding his political opponent Edward Livingston (also of New York, of course):
   “He is a man of splendid abilities, but utterly corrupt. He shines and stinks like rotten mackerel by moonlight.”
   Of course it also applies to her majesty HRC…

7. But NONE of this is news

   BTW, the funding gap is MUCH larger than the absurd stats posted above.

   HRCGS has her campaign geared towards raising $2,000,000,000 for her.

   Vast amounts of her campaign staff are still being ‘side-funded’ by the Clinton global initiative(s) — what ever those may entail.

   Trump’s funding gap is epic by ANY standard.

   Most of Hillary’s monies will ‘pop up’ after she’s the official nominee.

8. Well, I’ll make the obligatory comment that’s been current for the last thirty years – “…back when SNL was good…”
