Gotta admire Trump!! - 8/12/2015 11:54:07 AM

Conservative media outlets are trying to cash in on Donald Trump's presidential run through paid email solicitations.

The Washington Post reported, "Newsmax Media has reached out to owners of conservative e-mail lists with a request to help raise money for Trump -- all while allowing them to keep 30 percent of what's contributed to the candidate."

The Post wrote that Newsmax sent an email stating the "Trump team is willing to pay 3rd party email list owners like yourself 30 percent of gross donations made to your email list" and "we think this will be highly profitable." Newsmax said they could provide sample Trump banners, links, and emails, and added that "these are considered paid ads, and don't imply an endorsement on the part of Newsmax or by any third party affiliate like yourself for the Trump campaign."

The Daily Caller, Dick Morris, Michael Reagan, PJ Media, and Herman Cain have sent paid email fundraising solicitations on behalf of the Trump campaign to their newsletter subscribers, according to a Media Matters search of its newsletter archive. Morris and Reagan state their emails came via Newsmax. The Caller, Cain and PJ Media emails do not mention Newsmax (the Post, which noted Cain's email, said Newsmax wouldn't confirm if Cain sent the Trump email through them). The emails sent by the outlets appear to work off the same "Urgent Letter from Donald Trump" template referenced in the Newsmax solicitation highlighted by the Post.

An August 10 email sent by Dick Morris, for instance, asked after the Fox News debate: "Trump or Megyn? Show Your Support for Donald." A notice at the bottom notes that Morris "is represented exclusively by Newsmax Media."

Newsmax is also peddling Trump's "Make America Great Again" hat as a bonus for signing up for a trial subscription to its magazine.

Newsmax is a natural partner for Trump, as it has been a frequent promoter of his political ambitions.

Breitbart has been accused of accepting financial backing from Trump in exchange for positive coverage, a charge the outlet denies.

It's not clear why the campaign of a billionaire who has said he's rich enough to self-fund and doesn't "need anybody's money" has to solicit donations. Media Matters has frequently documented how much of the conservative media is trying to cash-in on its followers.

I have to say.....the man knows the system is fucked.

Of course the obvious logical fallacy to that statement is that 'all of those others' thus make [it] the best. I truly don't think though that Churchill felt money was speech.

However, this is a situation where the Donald can get money he doesn't have to pay back and does have the extremely restrictive right through Buckley vs Valeo to use all of his own money. However, that precedent has been butchered by others and since again... in 'Citizens.'

So just as so many dems, who otherwise don't like it and the right feels should fall on their political sword...he's playing the system.

There is no fallacy he was restating this

He apparently considered a Republic to be a necessary evil and the other forms of government intolerable.

But that means ALL govt. is inherently evil. Democracy then is just...less evil ? If so, still makes it the best. 'We form govt. as a necessary evil to protect our inalienable rights' was...was our original creed.

So multiple bankrupt an d current billionaire Donald "The Mop" Trump needs to cadge a few dollars from his redneck base to continue his campaign to vilify anyone with a slightly darker skin tone to his own .....

Who would be comfortable with this person in charge of the public purse? Who would be comfortable with this person in charge of relations with the US's southern neighbours? What woman would want to vote for such a shameless misogynist? Is there a demographic left (other than bitter old white men) he has failed to insult?

.... gotta be a shoe-in for the GOP nomination in what will go down in history as one of the greatest acts of political auto-annihilation ever .....

That narrative is stupid, and its getting tired

Money has always been speech. Town criers were never slaves, they had to be paid. Printing presses cost plenty back in the day. Candidates taking trains cross country to speak had a cost... Radio ads in Churchills time came with a cost, newspaper ads have always brought revenue...

If you think Trump is a shoe in for the GOP nomination you have no understanding of American politics.
