  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Joe Biden’s campaign planned to bury Donald Trump in an avalanche of cash.

Instead, his allies are bracing for a slugfest without the benefit of a fatter wallet, as financial reports showed Trump outraising Biden in back-to-back months, hauling in huge sums after his 34 felony convictions and erasing Biden’s longstanding financial edge.

We will have to see what happens in November 2024. I am not a fan of either candidate, but it is somewhat fun watching both of them duke it out.

Anything on the topic of the thread?
Yeah, I do not want to give to any campaign, as the money could go to better purposes, instead of Joe or Trump. I'd rather give to the poor, or to a church. I mainly give to the poor, but should give to my local church more. Maybe Joe should give his campaign money to helping the poor, instead of making expensive ads. Same with the Trump campaign.

One guy represents most of the difference.

Reclusive heir's gift to Trump's MAGA super PAC among largest ever disclosed: report

The heir to turn-of-the-century tycoon Andrew Mellon's family fortune plunked down $50 million to former President Donald Trump's super PAC.
Whew, that is a lot of money. I smell corruption in the air. The bigger the monetary amount I see in the news, the higher my corruption-meter displays, until it breaks. Trump has caused my meter to shatter, as shown below.

But so much of what Trump raises goes to his lawyers.
You write as if that is a good thing. Whilst you may think it is justice, other may see it as lawfare. How long before deep Republicans areas start indicting Democrat politicians to burn through their money.

Frivolous cases are dismissed. Trump's were backed up by more than ample evidence.

Hollywood elites are even worse. Cough, cough, including the perverts Mr. Weinstein and Epstein.

But yes, we will have to see what happens in a few months.

Elites are giving to the Trump campaign. Goes to show how easily the elites can buy out both parties.
Who has tossed in $100 million for the Democratic presidential election?

$80 million?

$50 million?

Bloomberg is at about $40 million for all Democratic candidates, I think.

Kamala's $500 million has come from grassroots We The People fundraising.

Yeah, no one has tossed in $100M for the democrats, yet. But, do you agree that both parties should get equal funding, and have donations capped at $10M, so that 3rd parties could have a fighting chance?
