In the wake of a public dust-up on social media, it appears there is no love lost between Donald Trump and the Club for Growth.
In the second ad, Club for Growth goes after Trump by noting his support for Kelo v. City of New London, a 2005 Supreme Court decision that ruled in favor of eminent domain.
“He’s really just playing us for chumps”, the narrator in the ad concludes.
The ads highlight Trump’s past support for raising taxes, a single-payer health insurance system, and the Wall Street bailout. “We’re going to serve notice on future debates”, he told Fox News after the NBC debate.
Among Southern California residents, his controversial remarks about Mexican immigrants have had a predictable, polarizing impact.
At the Dallas rally, attended by approximately 17,000 supporters, Trump continued his tirade against illegal immigration. When asked whether Trump could win the nomination, McIntosh said “we’ve got to take Donald Trump seriously”.
“The drugs pour in, and the money pours out”.
Trump, he said, is merely expressing what people are thinking: There is a real dissatisfaction with Washington.
The Republican presidential front-runner – standing in front of three massive guns protruding at 45-degree angles from the battelship – donned his now-trademark “Make America Great Again” hat as he bellowed into the microphone. Trump hasn’t been afraid to criticize his own party and other loyalists long-viewed as sympathetic to the GOP. Last week, his failure to answer tough security and global affairs queries posed by radio host Hugh Hewitt – who will be challenging candidates at this week’s debate – highlighted his lack of foreign policy bona fides. The American people, he repeated, are “disgusted” and he could change that.

“I will challenge Mrs. Clinton, any other politician, and the entertainer who’s running for office, to hold themselves to that same level of account because none of them are going to be able to stand up to that level of scrutiny.”
