A Look At The Sheer Financial Genius Of How Donald Trump Is Financing His Run For President

“It’s kind of a nice deal for Donald Trump,” another experienced campaign finance attorney said. “It’s very common for candidates to loan money to their campaign. It’s even not unusual for a candidate to have the campaign purchase goods or services, usually rent, from an entity that’s owned by the campaign. But the scale here is completely different.”

Donald Trump Is Paying Himself to Run for President – Genius!

EDITOR’S NOTE: This article was originally posted on the liberal news site thedailybeast.com, and written by people certainly not friendly to the Trump campaign. But even liberals are forced to give grudging admiration for the incredible, smart and unprecedented way that Donald Trump is self-funding his own campaign. He is not only funding it himself, he is also smart enough to make a profit while he does it! Can you imagine, just for a moment, if America were run by these same financial principles that Trump is running his campaign with? It’s time to be a creditor nation once again. 

“After all, the chief business of the American people is business. They are profoundly concerned with producing, buying, selling, investing and prospering in the world. I am strongly of the opinion that the great majority of people will always find these the moving impulses of our life.” Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States of America

To sift through the disbursements of presidential campaigns, disclosed to the Federal Election Commission, is to be inundated by pages upon pages of mundane revelations regarding the behavior of the semi-human.

Ted Cruz’s campaign spent $110 at 1-800 Flowers on March 19. John Kasich’s frequents an office cleaning service in Ohio. Hillary Clinton’s camp is a recurrent customer at Alley Cat Pizzeria in Manchester. Ben Carson’s staff eats at Wendy’s.

In some ways, Donald Trump’s campaign is just like any other. His staff racks up bills from Staples and Burger Heaven, McDonald’s, Famous Original Ray’s Pizza and Taco Bell. But the tinsel-haired reality TV star has an obvious advantage over his rivals: the name that seems to come up most often on the list of businesses the Trump campaign pays is…Trump.

Between June 16, when he announced his candidacy from the lobby of Trump Tower, through the end of 2015, the Trump campaign spent $2.2 million patronizing Trump businesses. The majority—$2 million—was spent on Tag Air, Inc., where Trump is CEO.

Trump owns a commercial-sized plane, a Boeing 757-200, which is equipped to safely transport 43 passengers in seat belts plated with 24-carat gold—although they might prefer to sit in the dining room, one of two bedrooms, or in the shower, (or they might prefer to travel in his smaller jet or one of his two helicopters).

His aircrafts ferry him around the country, from New York to Des Moines to Manchester to Biloxi, at a steep cost. The bill paid by the campaign on June 16 alone—the day of his formal announcement—was $506,846.

The Trump campaign also made 34 visits to Trump Cafe and Trump Grill, restaurants in Trump Tower where you can eat Ivanka’s Salad (diced tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, mediterranean cured olives, feta cheese and romaine lettuce with greek dressing…$18) the Gold Label Burger (our premium blend of Angus short rib, sirloin and Kobe brisket…$19) and Mr Trump’s Mother’s Meatloaf (a family recipe, served with mushroom gravy…$13.50).

And paid $90,000 in in-kind rent to Donald J. Trump, Trump CPS LLC and Trump Plaza LLC.

Rent and utilities were also doled out—to the tune of nearly $74,000—to Trump Restaurants LLC and Trump Tower Commercial LLC.

Trump even has his own companies to manage payroll, Trump Payroll Corp. and Trump Tower Commercial LLC, where tens of thousands of dollars are regularly funneled before landing in the pockets of his well-compensated staff.

A look through the disbursements of the rest of the Republican field—Cruz, Marco Rubio, Kasich and Carson—shows that Trump is the only candidate who pays businesses with his name in the title.

And although Trump’s staffers do seem to fly commercial from time to time, he is also the only candidate who uses campaign funds to pay for his own fleet of private aircrafts, or in fact the only candidate with his own fleet of private aircrafts at all. Whether or not this is legal is a tricky question.

By law, candidates cannot profit from their own campaigns. If Carson’s campaign wants to buy 5,000 copies of his book, Gifted Hands, to give out at rallies, Carson cannot legally receive royalty payments from their sale. However, FEC experts I spoke with suggested that the case of Trump is an unprecedented one. Never before has a candidate funneled so much of his money into his own campaign and then relied on his own businesses to run that campaign.

Donald Trump MASSIVE Rally 30,000 + in Madison, AL (2-28-16)

According to The Sunlight Foundation, after the period ending February 20, Trump will have spent $17.5 million of his own funds on his campaign—68% of the total amount he’s raised since June. $7.7 million has come from donations to his website, which features a prominent “DONATE” button in its upper right-hand corner.

But to the FEC, campaign money is just campaign money. The FEC doesn’t differentiate between money put into a campaign by the public or by the candidate.

“This is sort of a strange gray area of the law that I don’t think the FEC has ever addressed,” Paul Ryan, of the Campaign Legal Center, told me.

Were Trump to profit from, say, the sale of 15 Ivanka’s Salads, Ryan said it would be a “technical violation” of FEC law, “but it doesn’t make sense for it to be a violation.”

Why should it matter, in other words, if it was his own money to begin with, if it is being recirculated back into his pocket throughout the course of the campaign?

The 2002 McCain-Feingold Act stipulates that, although candidates can spend as much money as they want on their campaigns, there’s a limited amount of time in the aftermath of a campaign during which the candidate can pay themselves back. It’s why Carly Fiorina emptied her account back into her own pocket the day before election day in 2010. But there’s no law that specifically addresses what to do if a candidate finds a way to make a profit, or at least neutralize their loss, during a campaign.

“It’s kind of a nice deal for Donald Trump,” another experienced campaign finance attorney said. “It’s very common for candidates to loan money to their campaign. It’s even not unusual for a candidate to have the campaign purchase goods or services, usually rent, from an entity that’s owned by the campaign. But the scale here is completely different.”

Millions of dollars are funneling into his campaign, both from himself and from his followers, “and a lot of it is going back into his pocket indirectly,” the attorney said.

“It’s basically recycling.” source

Donald Trump Announces The Creation Of ‘Stargate’ A $500 Billion Dollar Investment In AI That Will Bring Custom-Designed mRNA Vaccines To The World

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump unveiled a $500 billion artificial intelligence infrastructure project  called ‘Stargate’ Tuesday at the White House that will bring custom-designed mRNA vaccines to the world, how ya like them apples?

We have been telling you for quite sometime now that the arrival of Donald Trump back in the White House was going to set off a whole reaction of end times events, and brother is it ever. Just hours ago, President Trump announced the creation of a $500 billion dollar AI project called ‘Stargate’ that will create, among other things, custom-made mRNA vaccines to help you fight cancer. Half a trillion dollars to spend on AI and the first project they want to do is another mRNA vaccine??? All hail the jab.

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.” Ecclesiastes 1:9,10 (KJB)

There is little doubt that Donald Trump would not be president had it not been for the 11th-hour assistance of the world’s richest man, Elon Musk. There is also little to no doubt that this new AI project called ‘Stargate’ is also from the fertile end times mind of Elon Musk, he who recently built the town of Starbase in Texas. Christian, you should listen when we warn you, our track record from all through the Pandemic is one of the best around thanks to the Holy Spirit and a King James Bible. Remember in the chat room on Monday when we asked should the countdown we have be stopped because Donald Trump is back in the White House? On the contrary, Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Stargate are going to greatly accelerate it. That’s the memo. TO THE FIGHT!!!

Trump announces $500B AI infrastructure project ‘Stargate’ — with biz titans saying it can cure cancer

FROM THE NY POST: OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle launched the project, called Stargate, to unleash the new technology with the help of large data centers based in Texas.

“These world-leading technology giants are announcing the formation of Stargate,” Trump said. “So put that name down in your books, because I think you’re going to hear a lot about it in the future — a new American company that will invest $500 billion at least in AI infrastructure in the United States.”

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told Trump “we wouldn’t be able to do this without you, Mr. President” and added that the initiative could “create hundreds of thousands of jobs” in America.

“We will see diseases get cured at an unprecedented rate. We will be amazed at how quickly we’re curing this cancer and that one — and heart disease,” added Altman, repeating that AI would “cure the diseases at a rapid, rapid rate.”

Oracle CEO Larry Ellison also expounded on the health benefits of the ‘Stargate’ project.

“Little fragments of those [cancer] tumors float around in your blood. So you can do early cancer detection. If you can do it using AI, you can do early cancer detection with a blood test and using AI to look at the blood test,” Ellison said.

“Once we gene sequence that cancer tumor, you can then vaccinate the person —design a vaccine for every individual person that vaccinates them against that cancer. That mRNA vaccine, you can make that robotically, again using AI, in about 48 hours.”

Ellison said that as part of the new project “10 buildings are currently being built, but that will expand to 20.”

Masayoshi Son, CEO of SoftBank of Japan, echoed Trump’s inaugural address remarks from Monday, agreeing that “this is the beginning of the golden age of America.”

“We would not have decided unless you won,” he said. “This will help solving many, many issues — difficult things that otherwise we could not have solved.” READ MORE

President Trump announced the creation of the new major American AI company, ‘Stargate,’ which will invest $500 billion into the country and potentially create 100,000 new American jobs immediately. Part of the new technology that President Trump wants to bring to the world with the creation of Stargate are individual, custom-designed mRNA vaccines created by AI. See? We told you to watch out. We are in the END TIMES, no “golden age” coming.

NEW WORLD ORDER: Donald Trump Brings A Nascent Seriousness To His Second Term, One That Will Have A Radical Effect On The Current Global Order

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Donald Trump’s return to the White House on January 20 2025 is widely seen as ushering in a period of significant upheaval for US foreign policy, perhaps even a New World Order

This second time around, Donald Trump as president of the United States appears to be a lot more serious and focused on the job at hand. After surviving the worst example of lawfare I think this nation has ever seen, the novelty is gone and the humor appears to have worn thin. This Donald Trump is primed for action as seen in his flurry of executive orders on Day 1, and might well extend out around the world as well. New World Order? Maybe. At the very least, he is looking to expand US control of the western hemisphere, something not seen in nearly a century. One thing is for sure, change has arrived, but what type of change will it be? That’s the memo.

“My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change: For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?” Proverbs 24:21,22 (KJB)

No, Donald Trump is not the Antichrist, he is not forming the 10 Nation Confederacy and he is not bringing in the Mark of the Beast. But what he is doing is a near-complete reversal of much established policy in the United States. He is a one-man wrecking crew on DEI, on gender legislation, will only recognize two genders, bringing to a halt illegal immigration with possibly deporting hundreds of thousands of illegals. That is huge and there will be reprisals. Not only that, he is talking about accessing Greenland, reclaiming the Panama Canal, and renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. He has withdrawn the US from the World Health Organization and the Paris Climate Accords. Lastly, Trump is ramping up death penalty executions by directing the attorney general to “take all necessary and lawful action” to ensure that states have enough lethal injection drugs to carry out executions. Then there is all the speculation as to the role the cryptocurrency will play in the Trump White House, it could also be huge. Like I said, it’s been a big 24 hours for President Trump. What remains to be seen is how he will now interact with world leaders and nations like Russia, Ukraine and France. It is not overstatement to say a New World Order is coming, and in fact, may already be here. Let’s see how far it goes.

President Donald Trump signals he will start pushing for a new world order in first 100 days

FROM THE CONVERSATION: Trump’s favoured style of bluster and threats against foreign leaders already seems to have paid off in helping to craft a peace deal, however shaky, in Gaza. The deal was negotiated by Joe Biden and his team, in co-ordination with Trump’s incoming administration. But analysts suggest Trump’s fierce comments on January 7 that “all hell would break lose” if the hostages weren’t soon released were actually a threat to Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu to get something done quickly. And this forced the Israeli government to commit to a deal.

Trump used this abrasive style in his first term. And his recent threats to buy Greenland, annex Canada and resume control of the Panama Canal suggest this will happen again. This may not bode well, especially for traditional allies of the US. Not only that but Elon Musk, one of Trump’s close confidants, is openly bragging about his attempts to change governments in the UK and Germany – in an apparent move to shore up a global alliance of populist leaders.

Add to that a promised deal with Russia to end the war in Ukraine, a renewal of the maximum-pressure campaign against Iran and doubling down on confrontation with China, and you have all the ingredients of a fundamental remaking of US foreign policy.

Three particular aspects stand out and give an early indication of what the Trump doctrine of foreign policy might look like. First is the focus on the western hemisphere. Trump’s focus here appears to be simultaneously asserting US dominance in the affairs of the Americas and eliminating any perceived strategic vulnerabilities.

While Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal have dominated the headlines, there are also implications for US relations with Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela, with Trump’s pick as secretary of state, Marco Rubio, being known for his hawkish approach.

Trump may inaccurately hype up China’s role in the Panama Canal, but Beijing has unquestionably increased its (mostly economic) footprint in Latin America. A Chinese-funded deep-water port in Peru has raised US security concerns. Chinese investment in Mexico has created an important backdoor into the US market, and contributed to the fact that Mexico is now the largest trade partner for the US. In 2024, Mexican exports of goods to the US stood at just under US$467 billion, compared with China’s US$401 billion.

Trump is likely to dial up the pressure in the western hemisphere using a mixture of threatening rhetoric, tariffs and political pressure. In an early demonstration of how serious the incoming administration takes the issue, his allies in Congress have already introduced a bill in the House of Representatives to “authorize the President to seek to enter into negotiations with the Kingdom of Denmark to secure the acquisition of Greenland by the United States”. READ MORE

If you didn’t like Donald Trump, the chaos of his first term was pretty useful — it impeded his agenda. But no one is peacocking and leaking nearly as much this time around, and Mr. Spicer argues that’s a sign of things to come: The next Trump White House will stay on the rails and have a very different impact. New World Order.

THE PEOPLE’S MARCH: Tens Of Thousands Of Rabid Liberals Descend On Washington DC To Protest Donald Trump’s Upcoming Inauguration On Monday

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Thousands of people from The People’s March 2025 were rallying in the nation’s capital Saturday to yell about aborting their babies and other causes they believe are under threat from the incoming Trump administration.

Their motto is “Hate Won’t Win” but ironically the one thing that binds them all together is their mutual shared hatred of our 47th president Donald Trump. Would almost be funny if it wasn’t so sad, right? The Left is ready for a fight, they’re ready to shed the blood of Republicans and unborn babies, they have mobilized and stand ready to attack. Get ready for 4 years of unrelenting trouble from the group that says they’re all about ‘peace and love’. Welcome to The People’s March 2025.

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7 (KJB)

All the talk of moving Trump’s inauguration inside has less to do with the polar vortex and everything to do with the ‘heat wave of hate’ that burned up the Mall in Washington DC earlier today. The Liberals have already moved into position, and you can expect them to be hard at work ruining Donald Trump’s pre-inauguration rally scheduled for Sunday. Maybe that’ll get moved inside, too. But these riots are not limited to Washington, they are scheduled to appear in every major city in across America.

Thousands attend The People’s March in Washington days before Donald Trump inauguration

FROM EURO NEWS: The march is a reprisal of the original Women’s March days before President-elect Donald Trump’s second inauguration in 2017. Eight years after the first historic Women’s March at the start of Trump’s first term, marchers said they were caught off guard by Trump’s victory and are determined now to show that support remains strong for women’s access to abortion, for transgender people, for combating climate change and other issues.

Jill Parrish of Austin, Texas, said she initially bought a plane ticket to Washington for what she expected to be Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris’s inauguration. She wound up changing the dates to march in protest ahead of Trump’s swearing-in instead, saying the world should know that half of U.S. voters didn’t support Trump.

“Most importantly, I’m here to demonstrate my fear, about the state of our democracy,” Parrish said.

Demonstrators staged in squares around Washington ahead of the march, pounding drums and yelling chants under a slate-grey sky and in a chilly wind. They held signs with slogans including, “Save America” and “Against abortions? Then don’t have one” and “Hate won’t win.”

Minnesota high school teacher Anna Bergman wore her original pink pussy hat from her time in the 2017 Women’s March, a moment that captured the shock and anger of progressives and moderates at Trump’s first win.

With Trump coming back now, “I just wanted to be surrounded by likeminded people on a day like today,” Bergman said.

Rick Glatz, of Manchester, New Hampshire, said he came to Washington for the sake of his four granddaughters: ” I’m a grandpa. And that’s why I’m marching.”

Rebranded and reorganized, the rally has a new name — the People’s March — as a means to broaden support, especially during a reflective moment for progressive organizing after Trump’s decisive win in November. The Republican takes the oath of office Monday. READ MORE
