NEW REPORT: PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS 3,400 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

The most corrupt president ever to hold office?

Forget who this is and ask yourselves “is this the standard I want in a president?

 

Not only the most corrupt President in History. Also the most incompetent. I predict it will take psychologists and sociologists decades to figure out why anybody would support this criminal.

 

Trump pays up: $2M to charities as fine for foundation abuse

He stole money from a charity.
He stole money from a charity.
He stole money from a charity.
He stole money from a charity.

 

He stole money from taxpayers by making them pay for his legal expenses. He even stole money from his own contributors.

There is nothing a man with no scruples would not do...

 

The President has zero "conflicts of interest". The government rules do not apply to a sitting President.

 

Teflon Don.

 

He also had prior knowledge of his former staff member, and white supremacist leader Steven bannon' scheme to start a fake GoFundMe project to raise money for the border wall. Banning and others who took part in this game all stole money from the project, and Trump knew he was going to be doing this. I think they need to look into Trump's personal finances to see if he got any money from the scheme too.

 

You realize that the only President who ever made that claim was Richard Nixon, who is forced to resign because he was investigated for ordering a break-in at political opponents office right?

the only reason he wasn't tried and convicted was because Gerald Ford pardoned him immediately after taking office. He faced about 20 years in prison if convicted

 

It is the teflon presidency that Don currently occupies.

 

Most Trump loyalists believe that the President is above the law now that Trump is President. I have a feeling that "belief" will radically change when a Democrat is President. The problem they will have when it's their turn to make that case is that now there is precedent.

 

Feel free to replace the Trump with Obama and then realize the only thing that changes in the public eye is the public eye.

Obama, whose administration prosecuted and spied on ...

 

Do you have some kind of poll supporting that belief? I know of no one who believes a president is above the law.

 

Not being subject to conflicts of interest rules does not mean he is above the law. It means the law doesn't apply

In 2001, prominent Democratic Party operatives founded CREW as a rejoinder to right-leaning legal advocacy groups such as Judicial Watch, the Rutherford Institute and the National Legal and Policy Center. The organization’s founding directors were: Louis Mayberg, a Democratic party donor, and co-founder of the Maryland-based ProFund Advisors LLC; Daniel Berger, another Democratic party donor who in 2004 made a $100,000 contribution to America Coming Together; and Mark Penn, a fellow at the New Politics Institute, and a Democratic strategist who worked on President Bill Clinton’s 1996 re-election campaign and on Hillary Clinton’s 2000 U.S. Senate campaign. Norm Eisen, another Democratic Party operative, played a role in the group’s 2001 founding, although, he was not listed as a director.[5]

When they initially conceived of CREW, both Eisen and Mayberg said that the organization was intended to even the playing field against conservative legal groups that had weakened the political position of President Bill Clinton during the 1990s.[6] Melanie Sloan, another longtime Democratic operative, was listed as the executive director on the 2013 990 form with an annual salary of $260,699. She is no longer with the organization.

Prior to joining CREW, Sloan served as the nominations counsel for the Senate Judiciary Committee, chaired by then-Sen. Joe Biden (D-Delaware), in 1993. She was also counsel for the crime subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee under then-U.S. Representative Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) in 1994 and served as minority counsel for the House Judiciary Committee under Rep. John Conyers (D-Michigan) from 1995 to 1998.[7]

Since its inception, CREW has received financial support from several left-leaning foundations and organizations including the Arca Foundation, the David Geffen Foundation, Democracy Alliance, the Mayberg Family Charitable Foundation, George Soros’s Open Society Institute, the Sheller Family Foundation, the Streisand Foundation, the Tides Foundation, the Wallace Global Fund, and the Woodbury Fund.

CREW’s efforts at “accountability” and “ethics” have been criticized as a partisan vendetta against conservatives and Republicans.[16] An attorney who represents nonprofit groups said in an interview with the Hill that obvious one-sided slant of CREW’s IRS complaints could potentially jeopardize the group’s standing

Yeah they sound totally non partisan and legit

 

What the more pertinent fact was that his foundation was not a 'charity' but a slush fund for Trump and family,

 

Well, when republicans are committing the most crimes, it's understandable they will be the target of investigations

 

While I don't agree with Obama on his treatment of Journalists, the Washington Examiner did mention the fact that Obama didn't call journalists "the enemy of the people'.

Wash Examiner is implying that what Obama did was worse than what Trump did, calling the press 'the enemy of the people'.

I adamantly disagree with that contention. When Trump has manipulated the minds of 163 million people against the free press, by falsely accusing them of being the 'enemy of the people', a free press which is, in fact, the only thing standing between tyranny and a free society, he can use that as a weapon with far greater impact against his opponents that the clandestine things Obama did.

 

Well I agree with Trump that media is the enemy of the people today. They may have been credible at one point long ago but none of them are today.. To much agenda, to much divide and to many suckers that on both sides buying in to their shitshow..

 

And I guess dementia is a prerequisite for YOUR presidential candidate..Is that the standard YOU want? C’mon man! As the election gets closer, the Democrats get more and more unhinged if that is even possible...

 

But in the NY Times tax thread, the left is saying Trump is losing money and almost broke.

 

While I agree that the Trump admin has had it's fair share of corruption (though "most corrupt" is nebulous terminology), CREW is a well known peddler of misinformation.

 

We just can't all be woke and as enlightened as you!

 

remember that children story about crying wolf?

Re-read it.

 

what’s desperate is the Dems depending on outside interferes to impact the election...the aussies are closely lied to the Chinese..

 

Anyone who thinks the free press is the enemy of the people, are anti-constitution, anti 1st amendment. .

Why? Because you are actually saying the constitution is the enemy of the people

Whether you agree with the press or not, the only thing standing between tyranny and your freedom is the free press. Without a free press, a major hurdle on the path to tyranny has been removed.

Think, man. If there is no free press, whether you agree with a newspaper or not, a major hurdle on the path to tyranny is removed.

"free press" doesn't mean stories you find acceptable. That's what 'free' means, you get to speak your mind.

Note that Trump declares ALL news sources that are not friendly to him as 'the enemy of the people'.

It won't be long when he declares Fox news is the enemy of the people, but as long as they have brown nosers like Hannity ( who IS a brown noser ) he'll hang with Fox.

The free press is your friend. I don't go around calling any press, ones I hate, or love, as the enemy of the people, that is like saying the constitution is the enemy of the people

If you can't understand that, then you are part of the problem
