National Memo ^ | 1/7/2016 | David Cay Johnston

Gawd. If the remaining 14 questions are as insipid and stupid as the 1st 7, then I may change my mind about this being a Trump hit piece.

Of course it's a Trump hit piece. Look who started the thread.

I read these questions the other day and thought that they were stupid. I still do.

They still don’t get it. Trump OWNS the downside. I would give the author a tiny ‘participation sticker’ and say thanks for playing.

[JoSixChip]

Don’t you want him to answer these questions before the media brings them up?

I didn't even read it. I know from experience, you Cruzer's are getting so panicked and desperate that the hysterical crap you post is not worth reading. It was cute initially, now it is just insulting.

[Larry Lucido]

I’m a Cruz supporter and this author sounds like a retarded blog pimp.

How tall is the Trump Tower? In Hong Kong most of the buildings up to 50 or 60 stories are concrete. So I guess it depends upon where have lived but I would not find a concrete building that tall unusual.

1. You call yourself an "ardent philanthropist," but have not donated a dollar to The Donald J. Trump Foundation since 2006. You're not even the biggest donor to the foundation, having given about $3.7 million in the previous two decades while businesses associated with Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Entertainment gave the Trump Foundation $5 million. All the money since 2006 has come from those doing business with you.

I think Donald Trump's philanthropism is "open and notorious". It's beyond question.

Now, on the other hand...

Who is this "David Cay Johnston" fella?

Oh, THAT'S RIGHT - I recognize the little cockroach from the impeachment wars.

David Cay Johnston was writing for the New York Times during the impeachment. The Timesies were all Clinton spearcatchers, and David here was just one of the bunch.

LOL! He lives in San Francisco now - that hotbed of hard right conservative thought.

Johnston is batting for Team Clinton. He can jam his sleazy Lefty yellow journalism up his posterior - if there isn't anything up there already, San Francisco being what it is...

[kiryandil]

Where's his "21 Questions for Hillary Clinton" and "21 Questions for Barack Obama" articles?

David Cay Johnston was a New York Times propagandist from 1995 to 2008 - the thick of the impeachment wars.

He's apparently had a bone for Trump for years.

Johnston also has somewhat of a reputation for unreliable [inaccurate] and bullying "reporting".

Johnston is as "objective" as Garry Trudeau. :)

EveningStar wrote: Moreover, how dare he question The Trump? He should not question The Trump. He should accept everything The Trump says without question. He should bow down before The Trump. The Trump will usher in the Rapture.

Or, on the other hand, Johnston's a hack, as BlueCat so succinctly observed. :)

>>Why is the media quiet about this?
Will they be quiet if he receives the nomination?<<

I’m sure your questions are rhetorical, but for those who are having trouble putting 2 and 2 together...

The media is quiet about all this, while simultaneously giving Trump all the free coverage they can, in the hopes that the GOP actually nominates him.

And, no, the media will not remain quiet if he is nominated. They will chalk up another “Mission Accomplished” and proceed to destroy him using mostly his own words, which as we now know, any fifth grader can understand.

He may be Jack the Ripper.

But the questions remain unanswered.

And the questions make Trump look like a sleazeball.

The questions aren't going to go away. They will appear if he wins the nomination.

Then what?

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Of course it's a Trump hit piece. Look who started the thread.

But can you answer any of the questions?

[Axeslinger]

Agree that those article should be written...but what does that have to do with the price of tea in China. Their absence does not negate the character flaws that this article seems to highlight

Attack Trump deal with this

Trump 3:16 cause he just kicked your azz!!!!

Article reads..." Trump Tower was built by S&A Concrete, whose owners were "Fat" Tony Salerno, head of the Genovese crime family, and Paul "Big Paul" Castellano, head of the Gambinos, another well-known crime family."......

Well Trump did say he hangs with really bad guys......Isn't there something said about judging people by the company they keep?

The company he keeps..Trump's palling around mobsters is well-documented.... "Trump's Mobbed Up, McCarthyite Mentor Roy Cohn," published by the Daily Beast on July 23, 2015. and "Donald Trump and the Mob," published on CNN.com on July 31. 2015...as well as a story in the Federalist, published on July 28. 2015.
