What the heck?
OIL !
Basically, I believe, that Rick Perry was backing Trump so it benefitted the petroleum industry. They were going to coup the election to protect Big Oil. The petroleum industry knows it is over. They want Trump otherwise the environmentalists will institute alternative energies in a very big way. That is why Manchin is looking at $577,060 donation. There isn't anyone else willing to do what Manchin is doing so they took the Big Oil donations and dumped it on Manchin.
This is all back room dealing in order to protect the petroleum industry.
These are the Plutocrats.
The three stooges, Donald John Trump, the Petroleum Industry and Rick Perry.

The cell phone number the text was sent from, obtained from a source knowledgeable about the investigation, appears in databases as being registered to a James Richard Perry of Texas, the former governor's full name....
