The Donald J. Trump Campaign for Presi­dent announced Satur­day in a state­ment that it has hauled in a a total of $360 million from a record-breaking 2.6 million individ­ual donors.

The millions of individ­ual people who have contributed to Trump’s presi­den­tial bid through­out the election season total the largest donor pool of any other Repub­li­can candi­date in history, the campaign claimed, despite the fact the total amount raised by Trump still trails the $480 million raised and spent by 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney. Most of those contri­bu­tions came from small donors.

I guess not all Trump supporters are dumb.  If I gave to him, I also wouldn't give much.

I took it to mean that his donors arent very big people. The smallness is sorta a Trump thing. Small ideas. Small morals.

Well, a lot of people donate small amounts of money to televangelists, who keep it for a lavish lifestyle.

Sound familiar?

How dare you slander televangelists like that. They are always very upright people....

What does it matter?   He's certainly not spending any of it to win this election. Since August there were numerous stories of Trump and his Super PACs conserving cash.   For what?   


Of the $149,912,723 millon in booked TV and radio spending through election day for the  three presidential candidates (Clinton, Trump, Johnson), $145,299,727 is being spent by the Clinton campaign combined with pro-Clinton PACs.

One of the great mysteries that will be solved after this election is where did Donny squander all the money he got. He sure as hell didn't use it on advertising and GOTV efforts. My bet will be that it was all laundered through Trump Corp entities and ended up in his pocket.

Well, he's going to spend $25 million against Ted C in 2018 and probably against other conservatives too

Looking at how well his brand is doing these days, Donny will be in time square pedaling fake Rolex's in 2018.

Here in WA where Hillary doesn't need to spend a dime to win, I see her ads run daily. She has money to burn if she can do that here. Never seen a Trump ad.

You're watching too highbrow a programming to see the Donny ads. You gotta dial into the Real Housewives of (Insert City Name) or Teen Mom to see them.

Sue Donny? For what? Being too cool for school? That whole idea is preposterous.

That's odd. I thought he said he was bowling with it.
