Tell me if I am wrong. As I understand it, Trump bankruptcy happened during BJ and Monica’s tenure. The Rats in gummint changed the laws regarding a business’ ability to depreciate property. Many contracts, especially in commercial real estate went negative suddenly and so became insolvent because prior depreciation was “baked in”. So Trump’s failures, seen correctly, is yet another example of libtard gummint run amok. My sense is that Trump correctly realizes that the LIV can’t grasp this and so never makes the point. To his credit he doesn’t waste time trying.

To: Democrats hate too much

honestly, that wouldn’t surprise me.

i can see those morons in the GOPe thinking that a steady drip of negative “leaks” to the WaPo and NYT might compel convention delegates to choose some white knight who rides in at the last minute, instead of Trump.

it’s delusional, but i can completely see them fooling themselves into thinking it could happen.

i wasn’t a Trump supporter during the primaries, but his stock is going up in my eyes based solely on the people he is angering and the people coming out against him. he seems to have made all of the right enemies.

Paulson is a Wall Street invention.

We are facing a Wall Street versus Main Street face off!

Paulson helped engineer the financial meltdown to ensure ObaMao’s election. It is no surprise that he shows his true colors here.

We, the conservative voters, have long suspected that the GOP “leadership” is not only not “with us”, but they are actively against us in many instances.

We now have confirmation, in oh so many ways.

the real battle between the elites and the rest of us won’t be fought at the ballot box.

you can’t vote away the self-appointed ruling elite (SARE) anymore than you can vote away cancer. you have to excise it with a scalpel or chemo. something similar is needed for the SARE.

No, it will not matter if you vote pubican ever again if we lose.

Voting will be pointless, you will be overwhelmed by illegals who are given the vote within just a few years.

You will be a minority and only of significance so long as you have money in your pockets because we will inded be a banana republic. Even the head banana still thrives in that case but the rest just wither away.

Bill Clintons people who was in on all of this deal was the following:

Frank Holmes, another major shareholder in the deal, wrote a check to the Clinton Foundation for between %250 Million and $500 million.
“Frank Edward Holmes,” Investing.businessweek.com, http://investing.businessweek.com/researh/stocks/people/person.asp?personId=310588&ticker=GROW.
Holmes also lists himself as an advisor to the Clinton Foundation.

Neil Woodyer, Giustra’s colleague who founded Endeavor Financial, pledge %500 million and committed to providing “ongoing financial support”.
http://www.endeavourmining.com/s/Management.asp.

Robert Disbrow, a broker at Haywood Securities, which provided 58million in capital to float shares of UrAsia’s private placement, sent between 1 million and 5 million to the Clinton Foundation a few months later.
http://www.hawood.com/investmentbanking/searchtransaction.aspx?view=tombstone&field=year&year=2005#

Paul Reynolds, an executive at Canaccord Capital, Inc., donated in the same range, between 1 million and 5 million. The UrAsia deal was the largest in Canaccord’s history.
http://www.investing.businessweek.co/research/stocks/people/person.asp?personId-1467569&ticker=CF:CN

GMP Securities Ltd., another large shareholder in UrAsia Energy, committed to donating a portion of its profits to the CGSGI. GMP made great money on the private placement of shares and as an underwriter on UrAsia Energy deals.
(President Clinton and Business Leaders Launch Sustainable Development Initiative in the Developing World. Hoffman, “Renaissance Man.” Kirby, “Uranium Blockbuster.”)

Robert Cross, who was a major shareholder and serves as a director of UrAsia Energy, committed a portion of his future income to the Clinton Foundation.

Sounds like a Trump endorsement to me.

Paulson, like the other GOP establishment traitors, is not and never was a republican. Lower case deliberately. We have a republican form of government. The GOP elite have never believed in a/the republic. They are, like their pseudo enemies the libs, oligarchs. Now they are making no effort to hide that fact.

Goldman-Sucks are the Romulans of the world to me. Lizard people who lurk in the underworld of finance. They are all clones who sell their souls for silver and are without principle or morals. All of them. You can't be one of them without surrendering your soul to mammon. This pretty well covers it: Mammon /ˈmæmən/ in the New Testament of the Bible means money or material wealth and is associated with the greedy pursuit of gain. In the Middle Ages it was often personified as a deity and sometimes included in the seven princes of Hell.

Taking names of all those willing to vote for a woman who broke the law, put national security at risk, lied to Congress and left men to die in Benghazi.

Shrillary...

God bless the FReeper who came up with that nickname for Bubba's better/worse half.

What are you going to do with that "list" of yours? Burn it with a cantation or something?
Be sure to do it under a full moon, sipping some nice strong iced tea, with a few friends, listening to one of your favorite songs.

FReegards.

The guy who literally got down on his knees and begged Nancy Pelosi?

Hank, how many people went to prison or faced any punishment at all for fleecing hundreds of billions of dollars from investors and the US taxpayers during the financial crisis?

Realize that trump is also 70. I’m certain you don’t want him to retire based on his birthday.

Lol. Yes, I forgot. Thanks for the reminder.
WHY is he such a younger 70 years old than others of the same age?

This is the first time I’ve seen Paulson described as a Republican.

Paulson was the guy who used the financial crisis in 2008 to try and ram an economic dictatorship down our throats.

He didn’t get away with that one, but he did get away with $800 billion of our money for his bankster friends via TARP.
