You live and work as a successful business man in New York your bound to have contacts with “The Mob”. I bet they owe Donald a few favors— Frank Sinatra had Mob Contacts (Ever wonder how he got those nice gigs in Las Vegas?) . Maybe this only shows how Trump can work with all sorts of people—I bet when the elections come the fellows with bent noses and beat up ears will be pulling the lever for Trump.

From the article:

“Sater never had an employment agreement or formal contract with the Trump Organization and did not close any deals for Trump, Garten said.”

Smells like a Jeb poke at Trump.

I’m sure the Cruz team will be right on this, to make sure we are reminded of it for months, without your comments. You can already see it on this threadm, the negative spin.

Par for the course.

Thank you for the mention.

So if Trump wins the nomination I think he is going to have a hard time selling to those of us who don’t buy him....

So kankles, the hildabutchbitch is your choice instead of Trump?

media always use guilt by association against GOP , but never against Democrats

The top Democratic candidate is a 100% DNA match with a serial unprosecuted felon.

But the media won't touch her..

This is stupid, the guy was “an advisor” for less than six months. Trump can’t even remember him.

Sadly, as I’ve said before, the Cruz supporters (not to be conflated with Cruz himself) would, as we got closer to the primaries, start utilizing any Lib press dirt they can find to try to attack Trump as many were banking on Trump “imploding” before November.

As that has not happened, they are getting desperate. They now will try to force things along with nonsense like this.

It wont work. And it is embarrassing to watch.

I’m glad he’s got this guy on staff. We need people who will bust balls, commies don’t mess around and they are not going to yield their power just because they lose an election!

We need people that will never ever bend to their will, not even once, so the fact that this guy has done some bad things doesn’t faze me, because he will be doing bad things to our enemies if we win.

“Sater never had an employment agreement or formal contract with the Trump Organization and did not close any deals for Trump, Garten said. “He was trying to restart his life,” Garten said. “I believe he was regretful of things that happened in the past.”

Most felons are DemocRats. I think the Republicans are entitled to have at least one.

Look at all the corrupt people that have crossed paths with Bill and Hillary. Anyone who hangs with radical Democrats hangs with scum. Let’s move on. I’m not even a Trump supporter, and I don’t care. I’ve witnessed too many good Republicans destroyed by the left’s hit machine, and usually with the full help and cooperation of well meaning Republicans. Democrats can get away with anything.

"The Whitewater controversy (also known as the Whitewater scandal, or simply Whitewater) began with investigations into the real estate investments of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates, Jim and Susan McDougal, in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business venture in the 1970s and 1980s."

Whitewater Convictions

Jim Guy Tucker: Governor of Arkansas at the time, removed from office (fraud, 3 counts)

John Haley: attorney for Jim Guy Tucker (tax evasion)

William J. Marks, Sr.: Jim Guy Tucker's business partner (conspiracy)

Stephen Smith: former Governor Clinton aide (conspiracy to misapply funds). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Webster Hubbell: Clinton political supporter; Rose Law Firm partner (embezzlement, fraud)

Jim McDougal: banker, Clinton political supporter: (18 felonies, varied)

Susan McDougal: Clinton political supporter (multiple fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

David Hale: banker, self-proclaimed Clinton political supporter: (conspiracy, fraud)

Neal Ainley: Perry County Bank president (embezzled bank funds for Clinton campaign)

Chris Wade: Whitewater real estate broker (multiple loan fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Larry Kuca: Madison real estate agent (multiple loan fraud)

Robert W. Palmer: Madison appraiser (conspiracy). Bill Clinton pardoned.

John Latham: Madison Bank CEO (bank fraud)

Eugene Fitzhugh: Whitewater defendant (multiple bribery)

Charles Matthews: Whitewater defendant (bribery)

Ultimately the Clintons were never charged, but 15 other persons were convicted of more than 40 crimes, including Bill Clinton's successor as Governor, who was removed from office.[40]

They don’t care. In the eyes of such TV fans, the Mafia is glamorous.
