Donald Trump Appears to Take Sheldon Adelson’s Advice on Humility

" Donald J. Trump met privately last week with Sheldon G. Adelson, the billionaire casino magnate, who this spring pledged to contribute as much as $100 million to support Mr. Trump’s campaign but has not yet followed through on that commitment.

Meeting in his suite in New York’s St. Regis hotel, Mr. Adelson, the chief executive of Las Vegas Sands and one of the Republican Party’s largest donors, told Mr. Trump that he was committed to his campaign, but urged the brash candidate to demonstrate a measure of humility, according to five Republicans briefed on the conversation who were not authorized to discuss it publicly.

The conversation took place last Wednesday, the day before Mr. Trump used a rally in Charlotte, N.C., to say, without offering any specific examples, that he had regrets over “saying the wrong thing.”

Montini: Arpaio turns criminal contempt referral into ... a fundraising opportunity?

source: AZCentral

" You've got to give him points for originality.

Or for gall.

Or for delusion.

Take your pick. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio has decided that Judge Murray Snow's decision to refer Arpaio's civil contempt offenses to the U.S. Attorney's office to consider filing a criminal complaint against him has become a fundraising tool for Arpaio's campaign.

He blames his troubles -- brought on by his own racial profiling policies -- on the ACLU, the justice department and, of course, Obama.

New Don the Con campaign hat...

In constitutional legal terms, what does this even mean? Not to mention, the "bad dudes" are...

currently being deported after appropriate proceedings.

CNN

"...
...
Trump said that on his first day in office, he would authorize law enforcement to actively deport "bad dudes," such as those who have committed crimes. But he declined to flatly say whether he would round up other undocumented immigrants, stressing that once the initial deportations occur, "then we can talk."

Top GOP Congressman Tells Trump To Release His Taxes

source: Huffington Post

"Donald Trumpshould release his tax returns and full medical records, Republican Chairman of the House Oversight Committee Jason Chaffetz (Utah) said Wednesday.

“You’re just going to have to do that, it’s too important,” Chaffetz said on CNN. “If you’re going to run and try to become the president of the United States, you’re going to have to open up your kimono and show everything, your tax returns, your medical records.”

Chaffetz said that the standard applies to both candidates. Clinton has released her 2015 tax return and medical history. Trump has only released a cursory, bombastic letter from his doctor.
