“A businessman paying off crooked politicians is nothing more than normal business?”
How have the trumpers fallen!
It is not normal business and Trump is not a normal businessman or even a successful one.
The only problem is that it requires Trump supporters to remember way back, back to the days before the primordial ooze was formed, six whole months ago, which is farther back than any Trump supporter can recall at all.
At the time, Trump was being pressed gently about two facts: 1) that his companies tended to go habitually bankrupt, leaving his creditors in the lurch and 2) that he once attempted to use eminent domain to screw an old woman out of her home so he could build a limousine parking lot for one of his casinos.
Trump’s response to these undoubtedly true charges was “I took advantage of the laws of this country and did what any businessman would have done.” There was no justification offered for why these actions were right or fair; they were legal and they helped Trump get ahead, so his minions actually used them as evidence that Trump was a brilliant business man possessed of great foresight.
Have you negotiated mega million dollar real estate deals in NYC China and other places where organized Crime/Democrats/party officials control your permit, medallions, trash, zoning and protection from “accidents” etc? Did not think so.
Simply put you have no idea of how things work at either international or Dem controlled cities. You really think the Big banks are paying Hillary hundreds of thousands of dollars for her speeches? LOL
And Trump put up his financial papers, of the HUNDREDS of operations he has done FOUR (4) did chapter 11 reorganization during economic down turns. Not personal and not Chapter 7. I call you out a liar with this statement “ 1) that his companies tended to go habitually bankrupt, leaving his creditors in the lurch.” 4 Reorgs out of hundreds is not habitually anything. Its the exception to the rule.
And you learned not to claim he used eminent domain to take the house since that was proven to to be a lie. Kelso is law. I do not like it but as you like to claim its the “rules.” Research from someplace other then the Harvard lawyer, she sold the place to somebody else. But then facts get in the way of the Dominist.
