Trump $250,000 per couple fundraiser (campaign, legal, Democrats, Republican)

[emm74]

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump will appear at a big-dollar luncheon fundraiser Sept. 12 in Bolingbrook.

A copy of the fundraiser invitation shows tickets for the event at the Bolingbrook Golf Club ranging from $1,000 per person to $250,000 per couple. The top tickets include "prime seating" a "photo opportunity" and a place at a special "VIP roundtable" even prior to the luncheon, which is co-hosted by the southwest suburb's mayor, Roger Claar.

I could have sworn I heard someone talking about Donald Trump keeping the money out of politics and how wrong it is for candidates to accept big ticket donations from donors who will expect favors in return.

...and you weren't invited..! Sour grapes...
GO TRUMP 2016

Well, it is legal and for Trump supporters, that is an important element of an action. I don't think I need to clarify that, do I?

At this point, "whatever it takes to beat the old hag at her own game"!

So, yet another non-issue. Plus, we can cut some slack after the awesome week he just had!

So many can't swallow the poison pill that his competition-not is that they are boarding the Trump train to victory!

Do I hear teeth chattering from Hillary's supporters shaking in their boots?

Yawn, why is this news?

How DARE he raise money for the RNC? I've never heard of such a horrible thing.

What? Surely you're not implying that Trump isn't reliably honest, consistent, and truthful?

Money in politics quickly and naturally becomes a good thing if it's used to beat an opponent. You see, both sides actually have a lot in common.

You did.

But Trump's campaign philosophy is predicated on the belief that there is a sucker born every minute.

It's true, there's a sucker born every minute, they're called Democrats.

Because he's a pathetic fraud and a con man who bragged for MONTHS about how he wasn't fundraising and taking money from big donors. Just more proof he's a fraud and a liar, no better than Hillary.
