    • they haven't got a case...IF Trump started new biz's or was making money directly due to influence as preezy then they'd have something... but there's zilch...PonyBoy
    • If foreign leaders wish to patronize Resorts in his existing holdings(now in the Trust) they have every right to. Bunch of butthurt losers will try anything. :/PonyBoy
    • THIS IS THE KIND OF SHIT I hate about the left... there isn't a fucking thing wrong w/the man being loaded before becoming preezy... nor is there anything...PonyBoy
    • ...wrong w/his businesses CONTINUING to make money while he's President as long as he's not running that show... which he's not. There's nothing to see here. :/PonyBoy
    • Does that thing under his chin need to testify?BusterBoy
    • PonyBoy has spoken. Case closed.monospaced
    • lol busterGuyFawkes
    • ponyboy should have filed an amicus brief in support of the defendant. the "butthurt losers" defense is definitely convincing.dorf
    • well.. so far Russia didn't work... going after him as some white supremacist isn't working... going after him for the 'grab 'em by the...' isn't working...PonyBoy
    • ... now go after him for having legit biz's long before ever being President... you know: way back when he had a top rated TV show that everyone watched.PonyBoy
    • Look... can't argue you w/you that he's a buffoon of a spokeman for the USofA and that someone should disable his thumbs so he can't tweet...PonyBoy
    • ... but he DID WIN the Presidency and you see who his voters are every fucking day (via all the redneck shit you guys post etc)— his win was legit—get OVER IT!PonyBoy
    • Work on finding a candidate to get rid of the orange twat... there is no case here... he was legit before he came in office and packed his biz in a trust...PonyBoy
    • ... if some foreign dignitary wants to stay at his gaudy hotel w/the fuck is wrong w/that?PonyBoy
    • This case isn't about his businesses being 'legit' or not. His business is international. He has deals pending in other countries. The simple fact is..mathinc
    • He did NOT put his businesses in a blind trust. He should not know what's going on with his businesses while he's president. Not only to keep him from doing...mathinc
    • something to benefit himself, but also to keep him from LOOKING like he made a decision to benefit himself.mathinc
    • Get it? If Dotard Donnie wanted to be pres, then blind trust. If he wanted to just do business, don't run for president.mathinc
    • He's a flaming cunt in a hat. I have a hard time GETTING OVER that. But I agree with you, Dems need to get their asses in gear for 18.mathinc
    • Where do you see in any news story or any daily activity that he's still RUNNING his businesses, tommy? You might hear in the news non-stop who's staying at...PonyBoy
    • These customs are in place so that America can stand as a shining democracy without the impropriety of graft other countries deal with. By shrugging them off..mathinc
    • ... his hotel in some country but you don't hear any commentary out of his mouth nor see the guy (or hear of the guy) sitting and doing company business.PonyBoy
    • he's just illustrating his lack of fucks in how important this aspect of our democracy actually is. It's bigly importante bad hombre.mathinc
    • ANY Judge will tell you that if you think Trump International Hotels or his other biz's should disappear from 'The News' that you're mad (and some...PonyBoy
    • .. as pundits have already states this pretty clearly if your ears are open)... there's nothing here... this is a waste of time / money.PonyBoy
    • Also... if you're paying attention you'll notice that Flump took a MASSIVE hit this last year and a half falling 92 spots on Forbes list, LOSING (lol)... hard.PonyBoy
    • http://money.cnn.com…PonyBoy
    • that is the OPPOSITE OF PROOF that he's paying attention to his businessesPonyBoy
    • I agree, it's hard to hide business dealings. But deals go to the press once they've reached a point. He should at least not know about a deal before that pointmathinc
    • The rule isn't to punish a president.. it's to protect the authority of the office of president. Look at fucking Brazil. Point delivered.mathinc
    • Losing $600 Mill and dropping 92 spots on the Forbes list seems to be proof that the man is NOT paying attention to his biz's (in case I wasn't making sense)PonyBoy
    • He's most likely way lower on Forbes list than he is anyways. Truth will come out. Always does.mathinc
    • You reckon that drop has to do with him not paying attention to his biz, or that his brand has taken a huge hit because he's come out as a moron, among other...mathinc
    • things - racist, senile, dotard. It's the brand drop Pony.. not him 'not paying attention' to the businesses.mathinc
    • Could be, math... but the fact is he's def. not paying attention to the welfare of his company if it's taken such a hit regardless of the reasoning.PonyBoy
    • *regardless of the reason he's losing moneyPonyBoy
    • They just do educated guesses, his shit isn't public. They're guessing that his brand is cratering. Aight, sleepy time, stupid kids wake up early. <3 ya.mathinc
    • <3 ya back... when you coming down here next?PonyBoy
    • This actually isn't the left or Democrats suing...it's an anti-corruption watchdog group.yuekit
    • I'd say it's a great thing they are bringing the case exactly because no one knows if what he's doing is illegal or not.yuekit
    • The Constitution says the president is not allowed to take payments from foreign sources...but a case like this has never actually been litigated before.yuekit
    • Eh... the watchdog group has painfully left leanings, yuekit. :) And yeah—this is an odd case because Trump's an existing Int'l bizman b4 his presidency...PonyBoy
    • ... those biz's are still going to make money (and there is nothing wrong with that as long as Trump's not using his Presidency to beef them up)...PonyBoy
    • .. and arguably, given the 92 placement drop on that Forbes list, he's not doing shit to better his biz.PonyBoy
    • Not true...same group has gone after Democrats before as well including Hillary Clinton.djmix
    • Ponyboy just because Trump is a shitty businessman doesn’t mean he’s also not corrupt :)yuekit
    • Agreed. :) Though there is this little burden of 'proving' it first. Guess we have to wait and see what they have and if it'll be made public up front.PonyBoy
    • FEC: March04—Sept17, CREW filed 53 complaints, 80+ percent targeting 'pubs. IRS: Oct03—Sept17, CREW filed 50 req.'s for investigations, 49@pubsPonyBoy
    • Congress: March04—Sept17, 54 complaints or requests for action with the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct, 80% @ pubs, 10+ @ demsPonyBoy
    • CREW seems to lean left...yes?PonyBoy
    • There are also a lot more Republicans than Dems in Congress during that time, and as the majority party running things more to investigate.yuekit
    • Just because he's being investigated by the FBI and other groups doesn't mean the Dems aren't also looking for new candidates. It's not one or the other.monospaced
