After learning billionaire Robert Mercer cut off funds in July to the Trump superpac he founded, I got to wondering why and took a look at what was going on that might have prompted that. Between mid July and early August, Trump let the world know there would be no Presidential Trump - examples: Announced a new entitlement program (Ivankacare) at the convention. Got the nomination and immediately went on the warpath against Cruz and Kasich, repeating the Rafael Cruz assassination claim and vowing to establish superpacs to defeat both men. Made a series of very pro-Russian statements: recognizing the Crimean annexation, saying he might not defend the Baltic states if invaded - even though Estonia has troops fighting with us in Afghanistan, attacked NATO and Japan and Korea. Called for nuclear proliferation. Attacked Ryan and McCain after they'd endorsed him. Promised to double Hillary's infrastructure spending. Attacked a Muslim Gold Star family.
