• It could have been worse, he could be getting campaign donations from Saudi Arabia like the Klintons.

  • He already did that, too. The Saudi royal family saved him from bankruptcy twice.

    "Indeed, in 1991, when Donald Trump was in debt, Alwaleed bought the real estate mogul's yacht Trump Princess - a former James Bond prop - for $281 million. In 1995, the prince bought a majority stake in the Plaza Hotel as Trump was sinking into bankruptcy."

• If you want to get the money out of politics, get the politics out of money - Iowahawk.

  " 'Sheldon Adelson'? Sounds like one o' them thar New York City Jews . . . "

• Self-funding was already out the window. It went out the window when he hired the Goldman Sachs/George Soros guy to fundraise for him.

  Remember when Trump was running for the nomination?

  "They’re gonna call me, people are gonna call me, friends. I didn’t take any of their money I owe, I owe nobody nuttin' folks, nuttin'. You know, N-U-T-T-I-N. Nothing, nothing, nothing."

  Ah, those were the good old days... as in a month and a half ago.

  • Trump can still self fund his campaign. He can do it all on credit, and when he runs out of money, declare bankruptcy, and we'll end up picking up the bill.

    • Beats selling himself to the highest bidder the way the Clintons have done for a very long time. What they have done is criminal.

• No doubt about it: the US has the finest politicians money can buy.

  • Like my dad says "Money talks, if you have a lot of it, it screams."
