Near as I can tell, he hasn't spent a damned thing, to get 24/7 wall-to-wall coverage
in the M$M for free, posing as "news".

And even if/when he does, the Oligarchy owns the fucking media anyway, so it's not
really 'going into circulation' except at the very top.

or just that he was pumping millions back into the economy through his "campaign"? Focus man, focus.

ps That website he's got didn't come cheap and his campaign staff has got to be getting bigger. Every dollar of his transferred to working people is a good thing!

as long as he brings along a butt-load of hirelings, that it's all "good for the economy"

Perhaps you mean it tongue in cheek, but still, I'm neither happy nor amused about
the M$M-manufactured "Trump Phenomenon".

I agree with Matt Taibbi on this one .. It's frankly getting a bit scary, and we should
stop seeing it as any kind of 'joke', tho it is tempting to see it that way, to ease the pain.
I can no longer 'make'light' of it.

He does not have a snowball's chance in hell of being elected President of the United States. Right wingnut wackos have big mouths and that's it. His 30% of the Republicans polled represents what percentage of the total number of voters that will be voting next year? Just my opinion.
