Clinton Library set to release Donald Trump records
politico.com ^ | 1/20/16 | Josh Gerstein

President Bill Clinton's presidential library is set to make public nearly 500 pages of records pertaining to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, according to an official notice from the National Archives.

The records will detail the Clinton White House's interactions with Trump and his Trump Organization, as well as how Clinton aides prepared to field questions about Trump's entry into the 2000 presidential race, where he sought the nomination of the Reform Party for a few months before dropping out.

The files could revive questions about the friendly relationship Trump had with President Clinton and Hillary Clinton before Trump launched his presidential bid last year and began taking a withering line against the Clintons.

This could also provide previously unknown political, personal and ethical information about trump.

Right. Because Trump's past has been completely hidden from the public and all his records are sealed.

I could be wrong, as well, so I will keep an open mind should Beckel actually produce something.

I think Red State takes the ORIGINAL meaning of the word Red, not the drive-by meaning assigned to Republicans back in the 70s.

I don’t think the “Trump is a business man and will do what is necessary” defense flies as well as it once it.

But much as I hate the Clinton’s they are mean as snakes and they definitely have stuff on Trump and they definitely will use it.

Don’t cross them. Ask Vince Foster.

More than you might imagine is unknown, his companies are privately owned. Don’t be a fool. Look at the Klinton’s and how much they have kept secret and they are a very, very public criminal enterprise.

Would you not want to know something now about trump that could change opinions of him or after the nomination? Or does it really matter what is unknown about him, just like Obammy?

There’s nothing in these files of any account, otherwise they would have been used by now.

This announcement was made fit your imagination to run wild for a couple of months. You’re supposed to conflate “files” and “Clintons” AS IF they are “Clinton files.”

LOL, THEY’RE NOT!

This is how the Criminal Clinton Enterprise operates. Remember Filegate? Allegations were made that senior White House figures, including First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, may have requested and read FBI files which included FBI background reports concerning several hundred individuals; some from previous Republican administrations. These files, including top presidential advisers and members of Congress, were going to be used for political purposes.

Even though Craig Livingstone, director of the White House’s Office of Personnel Security, was found to be guilty for the improper use of these FBI files, the Clintons were exonerated on November 19, 1998, by Independent Counsel Starr. Meanwhile, Judicial Watch is still perusing the case, even after a long, inconsistent history.

Trump believes in tit for tat. This is going to be very interesting.

As Beckel said: He was going to England to get a ‘love letter’ Trump sent to ‘Diana’ after she was divorced and when he was single...

I hope Beckel has another ‘drug, drunk’ episode so we don't really have to listen to him anymore....

I think RED STATE UPDATE is more truthful than RED STATE.

Spot on! You get it. Too many are still seeing through a fog, created by the “blather of squishy milquetoast career politicians” and those conservative interest groups, “slurping off the gravy train”—that do nothing!

“Yep - Trump gets a pass because he was interested in his own profit, yet Cruz can’t borrow against his own securities without being bought and paid for by GS.

It’s called crony capitalism. Trump’s record is coated in it.”

Two completely different things. Trump trying to make a profit is the American way. Maybe you prefer socialism. Cruz was borrowing money from the place his wife works at, Goldman Sachs. I don’t see the connection you are trying to make.

So it’s a good idea to show that Trump purchased the Clintons at a discount! LOL.

What?!? Trump fleecing politicians to curry favor for his business is the American Way? Try reading any book about Mussolini or Hitler and see how business operated under them.

Cruz didn't get free money from GS, he obtained an interest bearing loan against his own holdings. It's called margin lending and ordinary people do this every day. When you work at any securities firm, you are almost always obligated to hold most investments there for regulatory reasons.

I shutter at the fact that you actually believe that buying off politicians is acceptable.
