The Donald for President

Kat

Is what he said extortion or blackmail? Just wow

"I hear the Rickets [sic] family, who own the Chicago Cubs, are secretly spending $'s against me. They better be careful, they have a lot to hide!" Trump presidentially threatened tweeted Monday.

wow....he's really nuts

Every once in awhile I get the feeling that he is starting to run a real campaign and then he tweets again.

Not sure about blackmail, since there is no actual demand for anything. It definitely sounds like a threat though! What does "spending $'s against me" mean anyway? That they are donating to another campaign? Or that they are somehow spending money on some anti-Trump campaign?

This is part of the article before his comment that explains it. I've named this campaign season in my mind as The Billionaire Wars.

Seems the Donald is furious that Marlene Ricketts, wife of billionaire J. Joe Ricketts, had contributed a reported $3 million to a super PAC that had been hammering the GOP frontrunner with negative ads ahead of the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire and South Carolina primaries.

I guess Trump won't be at the Wrigley shows.....

I fail to see how Trump's "I can fund myself" mantra makes any sense. You are either beholden to a billionaire or you are the billionaire that will potentially look out for their own self interest once elected.

I will be at wrigley wearing one of my many Make America Great Again hats. Just as I was VIP for Tester show and shouted out "Romney For President" and Ed mouthed "GO AWAY" to me.

How is this any different than the DNC committing against the law corruption in trying to rig the Dem nomination? Because he's ok looking like an ass in front of the country while Hillary people are behind the scenes, doesn't make them all that much different. It's probably why they're such good friends. They're a couple 1%ers doing their best to play the shit out of this country.

usamamasan1

the 1% you all love to berate pay about 40% of the federal income taxes you all love so much to spend
you should thank them. not to mention the jobs they create.

woot

usamamasan1

oh they also pay about 1/3 of the philanthropic giving

problem lies within peoples aspirations. they don't see themselves as achieving the top earning class and are ok with them footing the bill.

TRUMP WOOT

They aren't trying to become the President and they aren't in the middle of a campaign.

They actually pay a lot more than that...and yes, we thank them. Now they need to pay more. And we'll thank them again.

How are they rigging the elections or primaries? Are you talking about accusations from the Bernie campaign?
