Somebody at work said Trump likes the chase and not the game. He is still acting like he's in the primary. There is no way he can have a million dollars in the bank and think that is good enough to run a campaign when Hillary has 42 million. The way the campaign laws are you can't raise that much money that fast to catch up with her. He really is dumb and dumber.

To Trump…Himself. .

"Donald Trump’s Campaign Paid Trump Companies More Than $1 Million In May"

Excerpts:

Donald Trump’s presidential campaign paid more than $1 million last month to companies controlled by the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, according to reports the Trump campaign filed late Monday with the Federal Election Commission.

The figure represents payments for facilities rental, catering, monthly rents and utilities at more than a half-dozen Trump-owned companies and properties. It includes nearly $350,000 that the Trump campaign paid a Trump-owned company, TAG Air, for the use of Trump’s private jets and helicopters.

The most striking expenditure in the new filings was $423,372, paid by the Trump campaign for rentals and catering at Trump’s 126-room Palm Beach, Florida, mansion, Mar-A-Lago, which Trump operates as a private club.

Though the payment was in May, the Mar-A-Lago bill likely covers a number of campaign events Trump has staged there in recent months. A spokeswoman for the Trump campaign did not respond to an email from The Huffington Post inquiring about the expenditures and Mar-A-Lago.

Other Trump-owned recipients of campaign funds include Trump Restaurants, which raked in $125,080 in rent and utilities; Trump Tower Commercial, which charged $72,800 in rent and utilities in the building that houses Trump’s campaign headquarters; the Trump National Golf Club, in Jupiter, Florida, which collected $35,845 for facilities rental and catering; and the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, which billed the campaign for $29,715, for facilities rentals and catering.

Rod Dreher at TAC:
This is going to be a political catastrophe we will tell our grand-kids we lived to see. […]

TAC Reader:
After the Obama transgender directives a few weeks’ back and the release of Trump’s SCOTUS nominees list, I reluctantly decided that I had to vote for Trump as the lesser of two evils. And I thought, at least Paul Ryan could keep him tethered to reality. And given the tightening poll numbers then, voting might matter.

The last two weeks have made me reconsider all that. The man’s a dangerous fool and would bankrupt the country. No SCOTUS picks are worth that.

Hopefully four years of the Clinton express will knock some sense back into the electorate. [….].

Au contraire, DJ…lol. We're talking about Trump. There is ALWAYS an even lower level with that guy!

But the longer his sham of a campaign goes on, the more people are coming to THIS conclusion:

TAC Reader:
I am of the opinion that Trump got to the race to feed his ego and get pr for his TV show. I don’t think he ever expected nor wanted to get this far and now that he has – he is terrified that he might actually become President. […]

Trump is so far out of his depth that it's not funny. He's a fake alpha-dog (and he knows it), who spews endless garbage and doesn't know JACK about much of anything …Except for how to CON people.

Speaking of his CON jobs…

He still refuses to release his tax-returns (whatever could "the Donald" be hiding?). AND apparently his campaign is nearly broke.

"Donald Trump Starts Summer Push With Crippling Money Deficit"

Donald J. Trump enters the general election campaign laboring under the worst financial and organizational disadvantage of any major party nominee in recent history, placing both his candidacy and his party in political peril.

Mr. Trump began June with just $1.3 million in cash on hand, a figure more typical for a campaign for the House of Representatives than the White House. He trailed Hillary Clinton, who raised more than $28 million in May, by more than $41 million, according to reports filed late Monday night with the Federal Election Commission.

He has a staff of around 70 people — compared with nearly 700 for Mrs. Clinton — suggesting only the barest effort toward preparing to contest swing states this fall. And he fired his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, on Monday, after concerns among allies and donors about his ability to run a competitive race. […] NYTimes

Says a lot about the people who support this dangerous fool.
