That makes it sound much more like a "gently caress you all" to the GOP establishment than any personal affection for Trump, he was probably waiting to make sure they didn't side with him against Cruz before he endorsed.

this is the part where Trumpendorf's been hit with the White Arrow and his belly's exposed. Better get them pokes in before he goes back into Unstumpable form

Which makes no sense, since Brown has been the beneficiary of millions in spending from the national party. He had two of the best funded Senate campaigns in their last two cycles. He also got prime committee posts in his short Senate tenure because they were so thrilled he won and hosed up the math on the Obamacare vote. Unless of course Scott Brown is a stupid, petulant child....

Joementum posted:I've added delegate counts to the OP and changed the candidate lists to track who has dropped out. This only shows up in the Democratic primary so far, but I'm calling delegates from multi-round caucuses "unpledged equivalents" for lack of a better term, so my count totals should track with what the media is reporting, but I'll also have the hard number of pledged delegates. This is much easier on the Republican side thanks to Rule 11. I wouldn't mind people seeing the total number of delegates so they understand things like how small iowa is

The worst part about a Trump-stumping is having to root for Cruz to minimize the chance of a GOP win in the general

Is it fair to say that Trump is self-financing his campaign is like me saying that I'm self-financing my house when all I'm doing is taking a loan and paying it off over 30 years with my own money, except Trump is taking money donated to him to pay off his loan and therefore basically paying nothing?

Also you own roughly 25% of the bank that offered you the loan (in that Trump pays his own companies to use the jet, hold events on Trump properties, etc.).

Trump has even claimed he's making money off his campaign, as like, a good thing. And he actually is using donated funds to his campaign to pay his company for the use of the jet so he can sleep in Manhattan every night.

I don't think you're going to get very much traction with "he's not self-funding his campaign, he's paying for his campaign with money that he's loaning himself" but I've seen much stranger positions on these forums.

Trump is really, really smart at business. Imagine how he would run America? Genius.

Trump can't even run his campaign at a surplus but he thinks he can reverse the trade deficit or balance the federal budget/pay down the debt while cutting taxes.

it seems like the trump thread only because trump has consistently dominated the media to the point where the best some people could do to talk about another politician is say that they are so very excited! Their posts were about as boring as the candidate.

I feel like this is too obvious a loophole to not have been closed wouldn't non-tax exempt campaign contributions become tax exempt when you write off the bad debt that your campaign defaulted on? Three Olives fucked around with this message at 21:11 on Feb 2, 2016 |
