No conservative, no Republican (other than a RINO like John McCain\u00a0or Lindsey Graham), in fact, no freedom-loving American would talk this way. They would denounce those Marxist traitors in the highest terms at most or at least not get in bed with them.<\/p>\n<p>Certainly, no one of sound mind, claiming to stand for America\u2019s founding principles, would give money to those who are out to destroy our country, would they?<\/p>\n<div class=\"pan-ad-inline-bottom\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"content-list-title\">RELATED:\u00a0<a title=\"Ted Cruz Releases the Most Powerfully BRUTAL Ad of the Political Season [VIDEO]\" href=\"http:\/\/politistick.com\/ted-cruz-releases-the-most-powerfully-brutal-ad-of-the-political-season-video\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Ted Cruz Releases The Most Powerfully BRUTAL Ad Of The Political Season [VIDEO]<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>_<br \/>\nHow can Donald Trump, or equally as important, TV networks, talking heads, radio talk show hosts, or anyone else refer to Donald Trump as an \u201coutsider\u201d candidate when he\u2019s spent his adult life funding the insiders?<\/p>\n<p>Do you think the Koch Brothers have given money to the Clintons, Reid, Pelosi, or Charles Schumer\u00a0just because they were \u201cin business\u201d and \u201ceveryone does it,\u201d or so the narrative goes?<\/p>\n<p>Do you think the another billionaire, founder of Hobby Lobby David Green, a Christian who stood up to the federal government and the Obama Regime\u2019s Obamacare tyrannical attacks against religious liberty, funded the above-mentioned controlist leftists, the enemies of our freedom?<\/p>\n<p>Well, Donald Trump did and no, not <em>everybody<\/em> does it.
