    More like a can of Planter's Mixed Nuts.

    Isn't the process now to do nothing with them? So if you multiply that by 10. No, this is Trump. Make it a hundred. What do you get?

    Donald Trump is lining his pockets $27 at a time thanks to the rubes who are donating portions of their government assistance checks to him, and yet the discussion is about Hillary's pantsuits sizes?

    Heaven help the Republic.

    Why Planters? Other mixed nuts work just as hard.

    He's now spent about $100 million of his own money on his campaign.

    He's spent a very small fraction of that money with companies/businesses/properties he owns.

    Trump stole Bernie's $27 gag? When did that happen?

    Proof?

    Proof they are not loans?

    Trump is not the type to miss a chance with that much money on the table. Raising the rent fivefold once campaign funds are paying it is a very good example.

    Like Trump, I read things on the Internet that must be true.

    Like the fact that he won't release his taxes is because those records show how much money he's borrowed from overseas entities.

    And he does that because no American banks will grant loans to a guy who has bragged about leaving them holding the bag so many times.

    So the Republicans have nominated a businessman that America's banks have deemed a credit risk?

    Hmmmm.

    AN HONEST DISCUSSION? Trump may have spent his own money, but it would be the 1st time. He may have loaned the campaign money and the donations pay him back. Trump sells merchandise from his campaign website, but there's no indication that the revenue goes to the campaign. THere's a licensing deal with the manufacturers that pays Trump for the hats and shirts that are sold. He is reimbursed for all campaign expenses.

    Let's be clear, Trump is, for a multi-billionaire, cash flow poor. He may have lots of assets, but lots of mortgages too. To foreign banks and hard money lenders. He's making money on the campaign.

    Trump's great valued assets are probably intangible assets. His 'Good Name' and the value he assigns to his brand.

    Assclown Florida Gov. Rick Scott, who has been horrible at every turn, spent $75 million of his own money to buy the job. Why would he do that if he didn't expect to make a profit on the back end? Scott and Trump have a lot in common.

    Can't wait to see Trump's tax returns.
