Broke: Trump Campaign Begs for Cash in “Emergency” Fundraising Email (UPDATED)

Trump’s financial disadvantage is being called “crippling” as the New York Times reports “Trump faces the worst financial disadvantage in recent presidential history: He had $1.3 million on hand to Clinton’s $42 million.”

Donald Trump’s racist Republican presidential campaign is broke and begging for small amounts of cash from its supporters. An email went out saying they were $100,000 short to place ads this weekend to face off against what promises to be a multi-million dollar barrage of negative advertising launched by Democrat Hillary Clinton and her supporters.

Lately, the Republican’s campaign has become bogged down in the spotlight of the general election’s media attention blitz in June.

Trump’s response to a number of criticisms and incidents have been arriving several days after devastating political criticisms of his business career.

Trump’s improvising and fantasias have become so disconnected from reality, that even the NRA is publicly siding with President Obama.

(note: we can’t make this up)

Today, Trump fired his main acolyte and true believer, Campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski whose claim to fame was denying a physical incident with a former Breitbart reporter that was later shown on video as happening.

The Wall Street Journal profiled him in a story entitled, “Meet the Man That Helps Trump Be Trump

Trump just recorded a nine month long “hate baby” of a political reality tv show of “Trump being Trump” in the Republican primaries. It’s a political program focused on insulting every female voter or minority voter in America, racking up a trophy case of Politifact “Pants on Fire” designations and losing corporate sponsors like crazy.

News reports say that Arizona is being put in play as new Latino voter registrations surge.

Utah too, because of the Mitt Romney led, #NeverTrump movement in his nominally home state, will likely be a surprisingly blue state come November.

President Obama used strong fundraising to tip the 2012 General Election in his favor by a blitz of ads during the long summer between nominating contests and party conventions — a time when earned media appearances traditionally wane.

Clinton is looking like she’s going to duplicate the feat, and blast the airwaves defining Trump as the angry man who ran in the primary, with his own words.

Now, the Republican’s “cheeto jesus” is claiming that even the RNC isn’t going to go along with his populist campaign of hatred without running any of the aspects of a traditional political campaign, and he’s going to have to “go it alone.”

The orange-faced candidate from New York pledged to maintain political independence by self-funding his campaign, but went crawling to the Republican National Committee (RNC) for help just a few short weeks ago.

Just this week seven big corporate sponsors reportedly pulled out funding the Republican National Convention due to Donald Trump’s incendiary lies and packs of violent supporters who’re egged on by the strong-man’s calls at rallies towards xenophobia and retribution.

Trump’s current funding “emergency” is being caused more by the Republican candidate’s own actions, his business dealings in the past and his vicious attacks on the federal judge presiding over his Trump University trial and so many other present expressions by the Republican presidential candidate of vane nihilism, hatred and ego.

The only true emergency Republicans have is that their party has been hijacked by the most extreme right-wing fanatics openly bringing ethnic hatred into politics that either of America’s mainstream parties has seen since the KKK took over Indiana state politics in the 1920s using the Republican party as its vehicle to power back then too.

It’s become clear why people are saying that Americans of conscience have a moral duty to oppose the Republican Presidential nomination of Donald Trump.
