This is an open request for an investigative MSM reporter to engage in some fact finding. I believe you will find the biggest story of the campaign season within Jeb’s campaign finance manipulation – if you do a little ground work. ~ /SD

A recent article highlights how Jeb Bush top Florida “campaign fundraisers” have quit the campaign. However, the focus remains on financing any possible success from Wall Street Super-PACs. What does this mean?

It means a few things. Importantly, it means Donald Trump’s strategic approach against the GOPe Road Map is winning.

Three top Jeb Bush fundraisers abruptly parted ways with his presidential campaign on Friday, amid internal personality conflicts and questions about the strength of his candidacy, POLITICO has learned. There are different versions of what transpired. The Florida-based fundraising consultants — Kris Money, Trey McCarley, and Debbie Aleksander — have said that they voluntarily quit the campaign and were still working with Bush’s super PAC, Right to Rise Super PAC. Others said the three, who worked under the same contract, were let go because they were no longer needed for the current phase of the campaign. (link)

Notice CAREFULLY these three have quit the “campaign finance”, but still work on the “Super-PAC finance” angle.

It is always important to remember, in 2015/2016 there are two types of funds for each candidate now: traditional campaign finance (which has rules, laws and limits – albeit changed this year), and Super-PAC funding (no limits).

With declining poll numbers the construct of a voter based RNC/GOPe victory is becoming visibly impossible. The traditional donors, those who align based on voter support for a candidate, are now in full retreat.

Back in 2014, when the RNC/GOPe road map was constructed to elect Jeb Bush, the RNC/GOPe anticipated a shallow campaign donor base for Bush. They knew the actual campaign donors would possibly be a small group – so they intentionally changed the rules for those donors so that they could contribute more money to the party apparatus. In essence, Team Jeb knew the money river would be shallow, so they widened it.

Under the old rules (McCain-Feingold), parties were limited to $32,400 per individual, per year. Under the new rules:

[…] the negotiators agreed to allow parties to raise money up to $97,200 for each of 3 different additional accounts. One account would be for party conventions (only for RNC and DNC), a second account would be used to defray building expenses, and a third for legal fees related to vote recounts and other legal counsel. All told, a donor who wants to maximize contributions to the national committees could conceivably give $777,600 to party committees each year. That means more than $1.5 million during a 2-year election cycle. (link)

Anticipating the lack of broad base support, and anticipating the lack of grass roots contributions to the Bush Campaign, the RNC/GOPe needed to find a mechanism to fund Jeb legally. Hence the campaign finance changes noted above.

However, Jeb’s campaign expenditure burn rate is exceeding the ability of additional donors to be pulled in – hence, Team Jeb telling everyone to watch their spending.

The only people left to finance Jeb Bush are the Wall Street financiers behind the Super-PAC’s. But candidates, and their campaigns, are not allowed to subvert campaign finance laws by coordinating with their supportive Super-PACs.

Donald Trump masterfully placed a warning shot across the bow in New Hampshire earlier this month – telling the RNC/GOPe team that he was aware Bush’s only hope to continue financing his campaign was through Wall Street. In essence he put them on notice that his team would be watching for the illegal coordination.

Within a week of this warning from Donald Trump, Team Jeb announced cutbacks on traditional campaign expenditures.

The last thing Jeb Bush wants is a savvy reporter looking through his campaign communication. My political instincts tell me these three released campaign fundraisers have compromised the required legal firewall between the Super-PACs and the Bush campaign.

How can three professional political fundraisers raise money for both the Super-PAC and the campaign simultaneously? Think about this closely. Where’s the legal firewall….. in their mind?



Within the Politico Article this is also present:

[…] The Bush campaign wasted no time seeking a replacement for the three fundraising consultants and has reached out to Meredith O’Rourke – one of Florida’s top Republican fundraisers who briefly worked for Chris Christie’s campaign in May but left it in July. O’Rourke, who wouldn’t comment, helped Gov. Rick Scott raise about $100 million for his 2014 reelection campaign and also works for Florida Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam, who’s likely to run for governor in 2018. (link)

The bottom line is there’s almost no voter support for Jeb Bush; and what little support there once was is shrinking as he showcases his insufferable GOPe credentials.

I haven't met a single Jeb supporter here in Colorado. Now I know why the state GOP pulled its trick of changing caucus/delegate rules. — Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) August 29, 2015

As a consequence, without a base of support, Bush also doesn’t have a financial base beyond the super-rich people on Wall Street who are funding him.

Just a Reminder, this is an insurgency. – The modern enemy of Wall Street is Main Street vulgarians. The enemy of the RNC/GOPe is not Democrats, it’s Grassroots Conservatives, more vulgarians.

The Republican Party, and the Republican media apparatus, view us as their enemy. We are the enemy they need to protect themselves from:

In 2014, the RNC approved selection rules that govern how each state’s delegates are portioned out from the primaries. Under one of the changes, states holding their primaries between March 1 and March 14 will have their delegates doled out proportionately with election results, a change that will likely stymie a movement candidate.

States that have primaries on or after March 15 will be winner-take-all states. That’s important because another RNC rule change requires that a candidate must win a majority of delegates in eight or more states before his or her name may be presented for nomination at the 2016 Republican National Convention.
