Republican US Senate Candidate's Parents Donate Max to Democratic Incumbent


(CNN)— Just months after Republican Kevin Nicholson announced his bid to unseat incumbent Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin in 2018, his own parents donated the legal maximum to her primary campaign.

Nicholson announced last July that he would seek the Republican nomination for US Senate in Wisconsin. A Federal Election Commission filing by Baldwin's campaign dated February 5 and available online shows that each of Nicholson's parents, Donna and Michael, donated $2,700 to Baldwin in December 2017. FEC rules stipulate that those donations are the maximum Nicholson's parents can donate to Baldwin during the primary election. They can donate up to that amount again during the general election.<snip>

How else could you come to the conclusion that this war was anything other than a horrible, deranged mistake with enormously devastating consequences for the entire area? Without the Iraq war, there would be no ISIS.
