The reason anyone donates to a candidate is for special consideration. Not unusual.

Dumping good money into a failing company is not a political donation.

More: "This was a crowd that liked me a lot ... and they're treated very badly by this administration, OK?" Trump said of his speech Friday at the faith-focused event in Florida.

"That statement is very simple," he added. "I said, vote for me; you're not going to have to do it ever again. It's true."

"This time vote, I'll straighten out the country, you won't have to vote anymore, I won't need your vote."

"You meant you won't have to vote for you because you'll have four years in office," Ingraham pressed.

"I'm saying go out, you must vote," Trump replied. "I said to the Christians in the room ... you have to vote on Nov. 5. After that, you don't have to worry about voting anymore " I don't care " because we're going to fix up, the country will be fixed and we won't even need your vote anymore because frankly we will have such love."

The former president added that Christians and gun owners were the key groups he was trying to appeal to, claiming they "don't vote." He also repeated his claim that Jewish Americans who vote for a Democrat "should have your head examined."

More: The latest disclosure of Robinson's troubling background came last week. The state Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) announced that a Greensboro nonprofit at one time run by Robinson's wife, Yolanda Hill, must repay $132,000 for disallowed expenses submitted to a federally funded child care meal program. The amount could grow if DHHS expands the scope of its review. Robinson previously worked for the nonprofit, Balanced Nutrition. So did his son and daughter. The Associate Press reported that "Balanced Nutrition, funded by taxpayers, has collected roughly $7 million in government funding since 2017, while paying out at least $830,000 in salaries to Hill, Robinson and other members of their family, tax filings and state documents show." The disallowed expenses were not merely the result of sloppy paperwork. And the pressure on Balanced Nutrition to justify its billing does not reflect, as the nonprofit's attorney claims, "political bias in the treatment of Balanced Nutrition and Ms. Hill based on the fact that Ms. Hill's husband is the Lieutenant Governor." The causes of the overcharges are suspicious. In one case, Balanced Nutrition billed the government for more than $10,000 for food and related items it purchased for Gingerbread Learning Academy in Fuquay-Varina, but the child care center says it did not receive any resources from Balanced Nutrition.

The Balanced Nutrition issue follows upon a recent disclosures that Robinson and his wife ran a Greensboro child care center in the early 2000s that was cited for a raft of violations. Those violations included claims that the center presented falsified documents showing that staff had passed training requirements and criminal background checks. DHHS took no further action after Robinson and his wife gave up the business in 2007. All this adds to what's already known about Robinson's past problems. He has been evicted for nonpayment of rent, declared bankruptcy three times and failed to file federal income taxes for the taxable years 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002. Robinson says shirking his obligations is some sort of everyman trait, just the financial bumps and bruises endured by all people of limited means. He says in a recent campaign ad, "I'm running for governor because we deserve to be represented by someone who's actually lived like us." Most people don't live like Robinson. They pay their rent. They pay their debts. They pay their taxes. And when they are questioned, they come forward. They don't stonewall or repeatedly walk away from what they owe.

Waging a war on people without kids is sure to capture the youth vote! /s

We should be more worried about crazy fundamentalists that have traded in their sex organs for clown cars that pop out a kid a year for 10 years or more.

The world is a better place without him.

The former president was introduced at the Charlotte rally by NASCAR great Richard Childress, whom he praised from the podium and then veered off into a reverie about Indianapolis 500 legend Roger Penske that led him to propose racing team owners and football coaches as advisers to military commanders.

"How you do it is amazing, it's so amazing," Trump told Childress from the stage. "We should send you into " I've always said, we should get some of those guys. I have a lot of friends in that world. I don't know, I think, isn't Roger Penske, like, a great guy, too? Guy won, he won 20 Indianapolis 500s. This guy wins all the time."

"I mean, we appreciate talent, I said, let me use these guys to guide our military a little bit," Trump told his rally supporters. "When you can win so many races, that's okay, you know, you guide. Same thing with coaches, you take some of the great football coaches, you put them at the table. 'What do you like, coach?' Because, in its own way, it's not so much really different."

This would be pretty huge if they actually do it.

Netanyahu is a war criminal and should be arrested and handed over to The Hague for trial.

Title should be "Who's." "Whose" is possessive.

If figure skating and floor routines in gymnastics can be olympic sports then break dancing can too.

If you understood the enmity between Hamas and Fatah you wouldn't have asked that question.

If the US is incapable of providing even the slightest bit of leadership on the issue we shouldn't be surprised when other countries pick up our slack.
