I wonder how much the Trump campaign is being self-sabotaged by grifters...

[Silent3]

...who are just in it to siphon off as much donation money as they can, while they can, because that's how the people Trump and his cronies pick think?

No doubt there are also some simply incompetent True Believers in the mix dragging the campaign down, because toadying and boot-licking outweigh talent in Trump world.

I'd guess the greatest competence in the campaign is Putin, and at this point Putin might be ready to settle for maximizing chaos rather than shooting for an outright Trump victory.

1. $800M spent so far

And not a lot to show for it... except losing. It sure looks like someone's embezzling as fast as they can. The coroner's report will reveal all.

5. Sends the message that those donating large now are just suckers or they are in on the laundering.

2. Trump himself is the Chief Embezzler.

No wonder his campaign claims to be short of funds in certain states, e.g., Arizona. And that's with billions of dollars being contributed by the Deep Pocket Donors.

3. Blowing a billion dollars is amazing

4. Everybody involved in the $$ is "wetting their beak".
