Donald Trump begs British MPs for money to run his campaign

Donald Trump
It appears that the cost of funding his own campaign is weighing the Trump establishment down as it is revealed that the real estate mogul begs British MPs for campaign funds. The situation was confirmed through the Scottish MP whose response to an email from the Donald Trump campaign organization was published on social media.

According to Daily Record, Donald Trump's campaign had sent messages to MPs across party lines for funds, while lambasting Hillary as having "corrupt, deep pocketed donors backing her." The emails were allegedly sent by his son, Donald Jr. Trump on behalf of the campaign

Instead of getting a positive response, the Trump's establishment received more than it bargained for. One of the MPs, Natalie McGarry who is an independent, actually condemned the campaigns approach of seeking funds from British people, stating that "it is quite extraordinary that he would be asking foreign nationals for money." She added that "the US elections are a matter for the American people."

According to her "long way to say No," the Scottish MP described Trump's campaign as "repugnant," and a behemoth of "ignorance." 

Below is an copy of the email as shared on MP McGarry Natalie's Twitter account

MP McGarry Natalie is however not the only MP to have spoken out. MP Stuart also called out the Trump orgainzation through his Twitter account. He stated thus; "Dear @nytimes, could you pass a message to @realDonaldTrump for me? Please stop sending campaign begging letters to MP's. It is pathetic!"

Prior to his being declared the Republican Party Presidential Nominee, Donald Trump had boasted of self funding his campaign. In fact he touted the fact to buttress his assertion that he is severed from the Republican party establishment. However, since he was declared the Presumptive Nominee, Donald Trump has sought funds from Republican Party's big pockets to no avail by reason of the content of his campaign message which the sponsors are not comfortable to be associated with. 

In addition, Trump had run a campaign based on attacks on the persons of his fellow contestants and reputable Republican Party members like Senator John McCain and the Bush families.



We cannot however establish the whether the emails originated from Trump's campaign or from internet fraudsters who intend to defraud unsuspecting MPs by dropping Trump's name.
