he’s not an appealing candidate to the general election voter.
Said pot to kettle.
I am now hearing this entire interview - Donald the younger makes the older’s blathering seem coherent, reasonable, and intelligent. Wow!
Your whole life has been as festival of events rigged to benefit you and your old man, son.
One bribes and the other threatens.
As I recall, the sun did beat the wind in that classic proverb.
Trump Jr. spoke from the luxurious Delegate Welcome Center at the fabulous spa-beach complex Trump Properties has leased & logo’ed in swanky Communist Boca…
Isn’t this one of the Trumpster spawns that forgot to register to vote?
D’junior…with his silver spoon up his a**…
Those stories only mentioned Eric and Ivanka not Don Jr. or Marla’s forgotten voting age daughter Tiffany. All, as best I can tell from the shoddy reporting of the story everywhere, were registered to vote, just not registered Republican. Don Jr. must have always been registered Republican, Tiffany who knows…Saw one story where Ivanka claimed to have been registered as an independent as opposed to Dad’s former party.
Would you like some cheese to go with your whine, Junior?
Sweet Jeebus – the rules have been known for more than two years. Yes, the rules are different in every state. Put on your big boy pants and deal with it: everyone else has.
are you worried about your inheritance if pappy has to spend more than sCruz to buy votes?
Please, Trump, keep the Trumbinos front and center during the general election campaign.
They don’t know how to pretend to like the people who make up the bulk of Dad’s supporters.
As billionaire developer Donald Trump became the toast of New York in the 1980s, he often attributed his rise to salesmanship and verve. “Deals are my art form,” he wrote.
But there is `another aspect to his success that he doesn’t often discuss. Throughout his early career, Trump routinely gave large campaign contributions to politicians who held sway over his projects, and he worked with mob-controlled companies and unions to build them.
Americans have rarely contemplated a candidate quite like Trump, 69, who has become the unlikely leader among Republican Party contenders for the White House. He is a brash, Queens-born scion who navigated through one of the most corrupt construction industries in the country to become a brand-name business mogul.
Much has been written about his early career, but many details have been obscured by the passage of time and overshadowed by Trump’s success and celebrity.
A Washington Post review of court records, testimony by Trump and other accounts that have been out of the public eye for decades offers insights into his rise. He was never accused of illegality, and observers of the time say that working with the mob-related figures and politicos came with the territory. Trump declined repeated requests to comment.
One state examination in the late 1980s of the New York City construction industry concluded that “official corruption is part of an environment in which developers and contractors cultivate and seek favors from public officials at all levels.”
Trump gave so generously to political campaigns that he sometimes lost track of the amounts, documents show. In 1985 alone, he contributed about $150,000 to local candidates, the equivalent of $330,000 today.
Officials with the New York State Organized Crime Task Force later said that Trump, while not breaking any laws, “circumvented” state limits on individual and corporate contributions “by spreading his payments among eighteen subsidiary companies.”
“You know, Ted Cruz has no chance of winning this without bribing the
delegates,” Trump Jr. said. “That’s his game at this point, okay, he’s
mathematically eliminated, but that’s been his game from day one because
he’s not an appealing candidate to the general election voter.”
…
The depth of misunderstanding here is epic. What Cruz is expecting is nobody will have enough for a 1st ballot victory. On the 2nd ballot delegates are free to chose who they will. Jr Drumpf doesn’t get that I think. And mixing in the general election is pointless at this juncture. Neither Cruz nor trump appeal to the democrats. And it’s likely a bunch of republicans don’t like 'em either.
The nomination process is like living in communist china!! COMMUNIST CHINA!!!
The guy doesn’t comprehend how to register to vote in a primary, why would anyone care what his uneducated opinion of the Republican party nomination process is? We could get more informed comentary from a five year old.
Cruz cannot attain 1237 delegates; thus, he is mathematically eliminated. If Drumpf were to not reach 1237 (a necessity for bribery to be pertinent), he also would be mathematically eliminated.
You gotta love these guy’s logic! LMAO!!!
The nut didn’t fall far from that tree.
Don’t bring up bribery into the discussion or it might be the only topic at the convention.
The Derpitude is strong in this family.
