It says his claim is half true. Open secrets is another site which breaks down contributions and where they're coming from.

He's not self funded. Sure, he's given his own money in an effort to buy the WH, but he is NOT self funded.

Each tweet and email has a link to his website which has a large donate button.

66.2% self funded rates as more than half in my opinion!

He didn't say he was half self funded, he claims he's fully self funded. That isn't true.

The open secrets data includes contributions to PACS that are "believed" to be working for the candidate.
I have to doubt their validity, as they show the US Navy and Department of Defense contributing to Trump.
And Federal Law prohibits this.

Where is this? I'm not seeing the DoD or US Navy on any of Open Secret's Trump tabs.

Also, you have to read the print where it states: """The money came from the organizations' PACs, their individual members, employees or owners; and those individuals' immediate families. At the federal level, the organizations themselves did not donate, as they are prohibited by law from doing so."""

Again, nothing wrong with the data. Read the print at the end of the data.

"""The money came from the organizations' PACs;..their individual members, employees or owners; and those individuals' immediate families. At the federal level, the organizations themselves did not donate, as they are prohibited by law from doing so.""'"

Voting with wallets against a billionaire...

Hahahahahaha. You got jokes!

What's so funny? Are you saying the people's choices do not matter in an election? If that's the case, then the electoral politicking is the LEAST of our problems.

[Pressing-On]

Donald Trump setting up the scenario that there will be rioting at Convention if he doesn't win the nomination. He doesn't care if doesn't get to the 1,237 delegates or not, he has declared himself the winner.

History does repeat itself. What does this remind us of? 1930's Germany. They faked riots in order to garner support for themselves - gaining public sympathy. A Mussolini in the making. He will build a wall and stand us up in front of it.

He says he won't lead the riot. LOL! But he is already instigating it by this interview. Boy, people have no brain who can't see what he is doing.

Also, Trump says he won't be at the next Fox debate. He doesn't want to have to answer to Ted Cruz. Kasich's political consultant is saying that Kasich will be a no show if Trump is not there.

So you're saying Cruz could have two hours to himself? LoL

But wait, I thought Trump was gunning for this matchup. Cruz vs Trump. Trump is scared of having to face Cruz on an empty debate stage without having a dozen others to hide behind.
