Sen. Ted Cruz has a few thoughts for his Democrat colleagues. “What the hell do the emissions standards on airplanes have to do with thousands of people dying and millions of people out of work…”
Hillary Clinton’s campaign spent over 730 million dollars in the 2016 presidential election. That does not include any in-kind, third party expenses, or the endless positive earned media.
