Carson: Trump's poll numbers are 'horrible'(warning, not what it is advertised as)
Ben Carson — who supports Donald Trump — thinks the billionaire Republican front-runner has “horrible numbers.” The retired neurosurgeon and Trump surrogate was on Fox News’ “The Kelly File” Thursday when he was asked if it was possible to raise someone’s likability. “What do you think — when you were still in this race, one of the things you always did very well on was likability and honestly and trustworthiness. Is it possible to advise somebody on how to raise their likability, their favorables? How would you suggest that be done?” Kelly asked. “Well, first of all, it is interesting, I did have high favorables. People liked me but they didn't vote for me. And Trump has horrible numbers, but ...Read more

Donald Trump turned his back on his closest friend when he heard he had AIDS
They say a man can be known by the company he keeps, and Donald Trump kept — and then turned his back on — one of America's most notorious figures. For 13 years, Trump looked up to his "closest friend" and mentor Roy Cohn, who in the 1950s shadowed Sen. Joe McCarthy as the legal aide behind the Red Scare and the infamous communist hearings, Politico reports. "[Cohn] became Donald's mentor, his constant adviser on every significant aspect of his business and personal life," Village Voice investigative journalist Wayne Barrett said. As Trump's lawyer, Cohn advised the real estate mogul on everything from getting a prenuptial agreement before his marriage to first wife Ivana to helping negotiate ...Read more

Trump was asked point-blank if he would denounce the endorsement of white supremacy and he would not answer the question. That tells me all I need to know. I actually joined a group on Facebook just to see what these truckers are like. I have never encountered so much blatant racism in a Facebook group. These people are absolutely disgusting.
These racist just only started voting when Trump runs for office, or did they voted for other politicians before? No one did not had complained about them before, and so why should Trump speaks against them if nobody never spoken against them before. Trump knows when to play the Trump card; remember, he own casinos. I doesn't know that if you are a paid corporate shill trying to put into the minds of Trump's supporter that he is a racist that he should not become the next president. Corporate america wants him out of the race so that they can go back having the public on focusing on the real candidates that they put into the race. I had noticed that no one did not responded about Ted Cruz had tried to cut back on social security in order to increase the struggling for people to survive so that we will not care about what corporate america does to us. And talk against Bernie another that is trying to dethrone corporate america trying to call him an antisemitic and he is a Jew. What next they will say about these anti-corporate candidates, that they are not citizens?

Donald Trump Gave $0 to Charity in Past 5 Years
Perhaps Donald Trump isn’t as charitable as he’d like you to believe.
The Washington Post tore through 93 pages worth of 4,844 Donald J. Trump Foundation donations made over a half-decade, finding that not a one of them came directly from the wallet of the GOP candidate. While the Trump Foundation has been generous on paper, the man who controls it didn’t actually donate any of his own money between 2009 and 2014, the newspaper found.
By the way, that lengthy list of contributions the reporters carefully combed through — it came directly from the Trump campaign. It also had one glaring error: A $26 million land donation from 2006 that was too old to be included.

I guess that we will never hear this on the media.

With friends like Ben Carson, who needs enemies?
This year, Donald Trump has his own notable supporters who the campaign dispatches to talk up his candidacy. Among the highest profile campaign surrogates for Team Trump is former rival Ben Carson – who was a terrible candidate, but who’s an even worse ally. “For me, it’s about the children and the grandchildren,” said Carson. “If it was just me, I would be completely where Krista is. I would say, ‘Hey, I got this, I can deal with it,’ but for them, I can’t.” Earlier, when Kafer said Trump was a bad man, Carson said we all are. “Who isn’t? Who among us isn’t?” asked Carson. Remember, the reason Carson makes media appearances like these is to persuade the public to support Trump – who enjoys ...Read more

Trump just loves helping out people, free of charge; but does the others will do the same?
But much of the time, Cruz represented corporate clients. He was a lawyer for Kraft in a major lawsuit against Starbucks. He represented Pfizer when a California county accused the drug manufacturer and other pharmaceutical firms of overcharging. (In a win for Big Pharma, the Supreme Court tossed out the case.) He defended Eagle Freight Systems when drivers sued the company seeking unpaid overtime wages and expenses. (Cruz lost a bid to uphold a lower court ruling that shut down the drivers' suit. Two years later, when Cruz was no longer involved in the case, the trucking company prevailed.) In a controversial move, he represented a Pennsylvania developer who was a central player in a corruption scandal that exploited juveniles, handling a dispute this crooked developer had with his insurance company.
Cruz, a tea party favorite who calls himself a "courageous conservative," has railed against "crony capitalism" and decried "corporate welfare." He has boasted that he authored "legislation to end federal dollars subsidizing corporate fat cats." Yet as a private legal gun for hire—who billed at least $695 per hour—Cruz sometimes defended corporations that engaged in sleazy practices to screw the little guy or gal. Here's a look at two of those cases. As a Private Lawyer, Ted Cruz Defended Companies Found Guilty of Wrongdoing | Mother Jones
And, once again, Justice Clarence Thomas was on the bench, hearing the case with the other justices. Thomas worked as a corporate lawyer for Monsanto in the 1970s. Thomas has participated in at least one other case involving the company, Monsanto v. Geertson, which resulted in a favorable decision for Monsanto; Thomas joined the majority in that case. https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2013/02/monsanto/
