Each delegate he got cost him over $650,000.

Rudy tops him though with I think the screen said $20 or $30 million dollars spent for the single delegate he won.

Just on MSNBC.

1. Why not just pay the delegate directly
And skip the commercials and photo-ops featuring his airbrushed mug?

2. No wonder he looks shell-shocked lately
He's got to have a little voice somewhere inside him screaming at him about what an idiot he is.

6. Maybe it's time for those kids to march on down to the local recruitment office
and enlist in the army. Daddy doesn't need them to campaign for him anymore.

5. He spent 35 million of his own money.
He lent the money to his campaign. He did not quit the race he suspended it. Any contributions to his campaign will be returned to him. That is the law. You cannot legally use your own money for your campaign. Maybe some of the morons that were criticizing Hillary will get it right.

7. Is that true? What happens if the campaign doesn't have enough funds to pay him back?
