hmmmmm......Marco has a string of mistresses (unless he’s gay) and Trump is a made member of La Cosa Nostra.

Trump can’t be a made guy because his mom and dad aren’t sicilian. But he does a lot of business with the mob.

The “mob” is known to be aggressively patriotic.

After all, this is their country, as well. If it goes down, they may not come out very well.

Not as close as Hillary and nowhere near as close as Obama is to the Back Panthers and the #BLM and ISIS terrorists

How bout a conviction? From the article linkedin the OP:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
“Another issue that needs to be addressed in Trump’s New York operations is the use of undocumented Polish workers to demolish the Bonwit Teller building, which made way for the Trump Tower. Only a handful of union workers from Housewreckers Local 95 were employed on the site, the vast majority were illegal Polish alien workers, toiling under inhumane conditions, and wildly underpaid. Trump and his associates were found guilty in 1991 of conspiring to avoid paying pension and welfare fund contributions.

If this had legs, Cruz would be using it or his Super PAC's would be all over it.

Not sure why he would be holding back.

What indicates he “has” the story? You can’t bet the rats have the story since rats have run Philly and NYC for many years.

I love one of the earlier posters, “even if there is a mob” funny stuff.

For those who caught the reference to the “Chicken Man” and the mob wars a great cover of the Springsteen song “Atlantic City” by The Band.

and blew up his house too”

>>> What’s next? Bernie eats barbecued puppy dogs? <<<

Don’t insult Bernie!

From what I’ve been reading from the Trump and Cruz fans, Bernie might be the only candidate left.

So he has done business with mob owned business and few mobsters. No where does it say he did anything illegal or immoral. It all appears to be legitimate business.

Obozo cut his political teeth in Chicago and rules this country like a true mafia don. Obozo’s DOJ decimated the NY mob families but has never touched the Chicago mob. Why is no one bring that up?

If you think that you are seriously on the wrong forum.

Politics is most definitely a contact sport, and sometimes a blood sport. We’ve been through this before.

It is very much American!

The Mob controls the labor unions, who control all the contracting and construction jobs.

Trump was a builder and a real estate tycoon. He hired companies to do the construction, and the mob took a piece. Trump has called NYC contractors scum, and he is probably right.

But notice the left doesn't connect the dots between the unions, the mob, and the 99% of the political donations from organized labor going to the Democrat party?

There are more mob connections listed in this article.

If I had a choice, I'd rather have the Mafia running this country instead of our current administration. I doubt we'd be reading much about ISIS other than obituaries........
