When it comes to contributions, Trump doesn’t play in the big leagues
Donald Trump
was pretty much the only Republican presidential candidate at last
night’s prime time Fox News debate to find fault with the current
campaign finance system. It’s hard to know what he thinks the so
lution
is, but something, according to Trump, is “broken.”
I will tell you that our system is broken…I give to
everybody. When they call, I give. And you know what? When I need
something, two years later or three years later, I call them — they are
there for me. And that’s a broken system.
None of the other nine White House hopefuls on stage had much to say
about campaign finance, aside from a few derisive references to
“lobbyists” and “special interests” — though several interrupted Trump
to ask him for contributions. (Video here, starting at 3:30.)
