Big girl Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 "YES TRUMP IS BROKE" "Talkingpointsmemo.com The author of the article wrote this. "I confess even I'm surprised at what the overnight FEC filings revealed about the Trump campaign. Posting the ' This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up ' column yesterday made me feel at least a touch exposed since I figured he'd add (either from his own money or fundraising) at least some additional funds to the paltry $2.4 million cash on hand in his previous filing. Appears not. Now on top of that it's revealed that he's been using his presidential campaign to funnel millions of dollars back into his own businesses. The new filing shows the campaign had only $1.3 million in cash on hand at the beginning of this month, in comparison to $42 million on hand for the Hillary campaign." Quote
JWB Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 Some people are hoping he is,but it's highly unlikely. Quote
Hagar Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 He hasn't much in his campaign coffers. So his campaign is broke, but not Donald. Hillary has $42 million worth of donations, most from the Big Banks, Big Business, Big Insurances, Unions. And all those Big contributors will want Big favors. Politics has, basically, always been like this. The Big money is gambling on Hillary winning, which, barring any potential events, is a good bet. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote

Trump has billions in the bank and will use at his dispense if needed. However, the campaign raised 10 million since May 28 and the June report will demonstrate the financial surge once released in the coming days. After today's speech, I anticipate the polls to reflect a more even race in key states. As reported by CNN yesterday, Donald leads in Ohio, tied in Penn (a blue state) and is currently down in Florida by 8-10 points, as of last week. I think you will see a close nit race as many in the middle begin to move away from Killary. People are deeply concerned with safety, health care, economy and growth and I believe those are the things that will determine the outcome of this election. JWB 1 Quote

This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Because the article said he was broke and that he was putting campaign money into his businesses. I asked a question and posted an excerpt of the article, so i assumed people would figure out the meaning of it. I didn't state that it was fact. I state things the way I want to state them. Are you the statement police officier? Quote

Have you not heard him espouse all of these things over the last few months? He has referred to each 100 times or more. As for a legitimate article, I will not seek a blog or something like Thinkprogress.org and present it as credible. Hagar 1 Quote

No, except that he is going to build a wall, a very big wall, because he is smart and knows how to build big walls, and he will make the Mexican government pay for the wall, because he is smart and knows how to build walls. He also wants all Muslims to register with the federal government; even though, white men in the U.S. commit more terroristic acts. Quote

You stated this lie a few days ago and I provided links that disproved it...with a quick Bing search. Did you even look at the links? Van Jones is trying to peddle this same notion and O'Reilly shot it down yesterday. But you will keep on believing what the Democrats want you to believe. Quote

I don't believe that Mr. Trump is taking money from the campaign and putting into his personal business. But if you can show me where I am wrong about that, I am certainly ready to listed. And yes, your statement was misleading because the article referred to how much cash the Trump campaign had while you inferred that it was Mr. Trump personally who has a net worth of 4-5 billion.

They're right up there with Huffington Post. Would you rather it be from Fox, Breitbart and World Nut Daily? By the way my favorite news sources are Vox, Vice, and the Intercept. Finally, I wouldn't consider Politico to be a "lefty" site. I have some conservative friends that share articles from there on Facebook. If you really want "lefty" sites, go look at Jezebel, Daily Kos, Addicting Info, and TYT. However, places like Politico, CNN, and the mainstream media don't really have a "leftist" bias. Now don't get me wrong, there are biases in the media. However, they aren't to any political side. The three main biases that there are in the media are a sensationalism bias, a bias in favor of the establishment, and a neutrality bias (call everything 50/50.) Quote
Englebert Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 Just about all, if not all, links I have seen from Politico show a strong strong bias towards the left. I don't frequent the sight, so I don't know their full content. But some of the stories I have seen would be way too far left for even CNN (who is also not completely unbiased). I have heard many people talk about how far left Politico is. And yes I would definitely be in favor of links from Fox over most other sites. If you don't think that Politico, CNN and the mainstream media doesn't have a "leftist" bias, I have a feeling you are a leftist. Quote

The man suggested you are a leftist, and you suggested he was a RWNJ. If your a leftist, be comfortable in your views. Quote
