That is pretty good for a community organizer from Chicago
    Just think about what you wrote for a minute.
    Trump owns legitimate business but he is not "using political office, peddling influence for personal family gain."
    That is exactly what he is doing with his hotels, and booking agents into his resorts, etc. Exactly

    Obama and the Clintons released their taxes. You could see where their money came from. Did Trump? Of course not.
    If the former made money selling a book, and bought a house, good for them. If there were things that were a crime, you know Trump's people would have them up quickly.
    The Clinton foundation gets high marks from all the charity measurement sites. Their books are public. The Clintons don't get a salary.
    Yet you totally overlook the fake university and the sham charity Trump ran...and actually paid back money to because he was using it for personal gain

    You've got to be realistic about these thing.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    Paul, let’s just agree to disagree on everything. I am not going to pursue a dialogue that involves the Clinton Foundation being held up as some form of beacon of light.

    Cute point about the tax returns. You must’ve missed how the home purchase on Martha’s Vineyard with structured. Seriously.

    Dash - honestly, you're probably wasting your time with PaulXU - the dude is completely brainwashed, and obviously can't think for himself.

    Moreover, Trump is going to crush Biden. It's OVER... Zogby Analytics approval rating for Trump is now at 52%:

    https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/w...even-democrats

    Trump recently had 3 straight days at 51% approval on Rasmussen - a first for that.

    Even Dumb Don Lemon is starting to freak out: https://twitter.com/JohnWMarxII/stat...96666434441217

    OK. But you gotta admit he scammed everyone about releasing his tax returns.

    I'm sure we'll continue to disagree, but what particular point in my post is not factual? Would be interested to know if you found anything like that, or you just don't like the implication of the facts.

    I'd much rather see the NFL boycott games instead. Far more people would lose their shit if that happened than the NBA, frankly.

    Part of me wants to see Trump re-elected just to see Democrats throw a tantrum for four more years over his returns when it's more likely that the State of New York (or Southern District of New York?) will find a way to get their hands on that and financial records.

    And part of me wants to see Biden elected just to see if they magically decide it's no longer worth the trouble to go after his records with Trump out of office.

    Oh those nba and mlb players along with espn are so woke. Let's not reflect on the fact that this scumbag had multiple charges pending against him including sexual assault, didnt comply with orders, reached into his car etc. Let's just act like the next Nobel prize winner got shot...what the Hell ever.

    Trump is going to get elected because of all of this and I'm gonna laugh my ass off at all the woke pussies

    And you don’t think every other hotel in the area did the same thing? A number of years ago, my wife and I were in Chicago for the weekend, staying on Michigan Avenue. I think the hotel room was $275-$300 per night. We looked into staying Sunday night, but the rate for the same room more than doubled to about $650. We asked the hotel why and they said there was an anesthesiologists convention starting first thing Monday morning. Increased demand from people with deep pockets means the rates skyrocket. Happens all the time.

    Didn’t donations to The Clinton Foundation fall off a cliff after Hillary lost the election in 2016? Coincidence? I think not.
