He doesn't need to clear his name. He hasn't been proven to have done anything with Russia as far as the election
You are treating him like some sort of ordinary questionable neighbor. He’s the POTUS. There is public doubt based upon plausible (GUILTY AF) evidence. It’s the country’s absolute best interest for him to be as transparent as possible. Again, he’s not some rando.
His tax returns wouldn't show anything illegal. Gerald Ford is the first candidate to show tax returns. All candidates have been public officials. We already know their income. We know what a senator or governor makes, its public information. Its just a tradition. There really hasn't been a candidate like Trump. He could show his returns but his returns are personal. He is going to be cleared in this Russian stuff. The only reason he was accused is because he won. Thats unfair to him. He doesn't need to clear his name but returns wouldn't do that. There wouldn't be anything illegal in them. Such a stupid subject
He said that money was pouring in and that Russians made up a disproportionate amount of their real estate holdings - i.e. they are loaning Trump the money. And Russian oligarchs is one and the same as the Russian mafia which is one in the same as Putin who is essentially the mob boss. I understand you don't know a lot about how things work but do a little work it's not that hard to find out.
Where does he say they owe money in Russia? You dont know how they funded that real estate I do know you're rambling
Lol. Right right right. Keep on casting vague aspersions to justify your hatred. We can all play that game.
He was worse than broke. He had personal debts nearly $1 billion dollars. I never said he declared personal bankruptcy. The guy had no choice to borrow to rebuild his empire. And whom do you think lent him all the money? Who could lend someone $3 billion dollars without thinking about it? US banks all turned their backs on him, he was known as "Donald Risk". His businesses were collapsing, he had huge personal debts - who do you think bailed him out? How on earth did he get the billions he needed to rebuild his empire?
You're making this up. Good summary of Trump debt. Nothing about Russian mob https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...fe54b4-44c4-11e8-8569-26fda6b404c7_story.html
It was that very article that finally convinced me to read the book. It's interesting to read the interview again after having read about a quarter of the book. The perspective carries so much more depth. I pick up so much more meaning from what the two discuss. To quote briefly from that interview: "The case you lay out is pretty damning... As you said, most of this stuff is hiding in plain sight, and although the special counsel investigation is underway, there’s a subset of the country for whom no amount of evidence is enough to persuade them that something wrong has occurred...."
Oh I am sorry, where is law stating that your gut feeling trumps due process just because. Get out of here. The law will handle it.
Fair and equal protection under the law …. hmmm. Joe Schmoe POTUS Both afforded the same rights and protections. That pesky US Constitution always getting in the way of partisan politics. (I want to see Trump gone just as much as the rest of you , I think he's a disgrace to the office but …. to impeach him , you have to have a reason , currently they don't have legitimate evidence to proceed)
What specifically do you need to see? If Trump received huge amounts of money from The Russian Mafia does that convince you that he needs to go?
A bunch of innuendo. In summary Trump Tower had a Russian business as a tenant. Trump flew to Russia. He must have Russian Mob ties. One of the things both you and this article are asserting that is false is Trump couldn't get a loan here. Secondly the Russian Mob or any Mob doesn't have the type of money to fund office buildings. They're just regular gangsters. Not billionaires
He couldn't get a loan. Duetche bank that you quoted in a previous article had to pay massive fines for funneling billions of dollars in laundered Russian money through it's Banks.
