Donald Trump has had a free ride long enough, Washington based Club for Growth has apparently decided. Here’s an item on CFG and Trump just released by Liz Benjamin. Strong stuff.
Here’s the CFG quote:
“Donald Trump for President? You’ve got to be joking,” said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. “Donald Trump has advocated for massive tax increases that display a stunning lack of knowledge of how to create jobs.
His love for a socialist-style universal health care system and his alarming obsession with protectionist policies are automatic disqualifiers among free-market conservatives. This publicity stunt will sputter and disappear just as quickly as the ‘The Apprentice’ is losing viewers.”
I suspect Trump will have a statement of his own shortly.
