I'm thinking the Trump that gives you such a boner is going to vastly expand it with his tax cuts for the wealthy.

I'm thinking you're a fucking homo. Contemplating the rate of growth of another man's erect penis isn't normal heterosexual behavior.

[cadaverdog]

Or that ISIS/ISIL/Mrs. DAESH started as al Qaida of Iraq under Bush and Clusterfuck Invasion I and largely resulted from the awful planning, or lack of it...

What part of "he inherited a mess over there" don't you understand?

[Seshmeister]

He makes his money by branding the Trump name as quality.

There must be a lot of people who won't use his facilities after that campaign, rich liberals, rich blacks, people from south of the border and so on. They aren't going to be replaced by working class people from the rust bucket.

Some corporates too could see choosing to have their conference at a Trump branded property as giving out a divisive political message now. That income needs to be replaced if he's leveraged to hell as most people think.

I think there is going to be a cronyism money grab going on now for years that will make the Clintons look like a lemonade stand...

As long as he keeps it just barely legal he will shrug and say he's doing it because he's smart...

I hadn't thought this through. They don't need to worry about the USA to make money.

They go to foreign powers offer a deal for a property development licensing your presidents name on it as they usually do except now dodgy countries can instead of paying them a couple of million pay a couple of hundred million in return for foreign policy decisions by the POTUS.

Trump tax returns are secret and it's a private corporation - you'll never know. Some journalists may do some investigations but outwith the liberal bubble they will be ignored.

Welcome to the Trump kleptocracy




“It’s very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it,” Donald Trump said back in 2000 when he was contemplating a bid that he never followed through on. And while he didn’t actually turn a profit on his 2016 run, it’s looking more and more likely that being president is going to be very lucrative for Trump. By the time it’s over, he may even be worth as much as he has always claimed to be.

The words “conflict of interest” don’t begin to describe what the Trump administration is shaping up to look like — though there will be plenty of conflicts of interest with administration figures such as Rudy Giuliani, who made millions from foreign governments and corporations, some of which are hostile to the United States. But the real action is going to be in Trump’s own family.

Anti-nepotism laws prevent Trump from giving his family members jobs in the administration. But don’t think that’s going to stop them from being active participants in U.S. government decision-making, or using the fact that Trump is president to keep money flowing in. In fact, we could see the president enriching himself and his family on a scale that we normally associate with post-Soviet kleptocrats and Third World dictators.

During his campaign, President-elect Donald Trump repeatedly vowed to "drain the swamp" in D.C. and rid the federal government of political elites and lobbyists. But just days into his transition to president, Trump seems to be doing the opposite. (Deirdra O'Regan/The Washington Post)

For starters, Ivanka, Eric and Donald Trump Jr. are on the executive committee of Trump’s transition team, helping decide who gets hired for key positions and what the administration’s initial focus will be. We learned that someone on the transition team inquired about obtaining security clearances for the three so that they could see classified information (though the Trump team protested that the request did not come from Trump himself). Then there’s the matter of Ivanka Trump’s husband:

Donald Trump has taken the unprecedented step of requesting his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, receive top-secret clearance to join him for his Presidential Daily Briefings, which began Tuesday.

Multiple sources tell NBC News Trump received his first briefing on Tuesday and designated both Kushner and Ret. Gen. Michael Flynn as his staff-level companions for the briefings going forward.

Kushner — whose knowledge of government is so minimal that he was apparently surprised to learn that the Obama staffers in the White House wouldn’t be staying on to serve President Trump — is shaping up as perhaps his father-in-law’s closest adviser. He won’t have an official position, yet he’ll be privy to some of the most sensitive intelligence secrets the government possesses.

Then he’ll go home at night to Ivanka Trump, who is already monetizing her father’s election; Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry is promoting the bracelet she wore on last Sunday’s “60 Minutes” interview, which can be yours for $10,800.

But that’s peanuts compared with what the Trump children will be able to accomplish. During the Trump presidency, they will be running the Trump corporation on their father’s behalf, but the money it makes will still be his money. We don’t know exactly how the profits are divided, because it’s a private company and Trump won’t tell us. But it’s important to understand that Trump’s primary business is not building things; he actually does very little building anymore. His main business is brand licensing, and it’s a business that is particularly amenable to enriching himself while he’s president.

Thought-provoking opinions and commentary, in your inbox daily.

How would that work? Well, imagine this scenario. Ivanka and Donny Jr. go to some country — let’s say Russia, for no particular reason — and arrange a meeting with a developer. They suggest a deal that the Trump corporation has carried out in places all over the world, in which the local developer builds a hotel or resort, then slaps the Trump name on it and pays the Trumps millions of dollars in licensing fees for the privilege. And let’s say that developer just happens to have ties, publicly known or otherwise, to the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin. And let’s say he offers the Trump corporation very favorable terms — which, being savvy businesspeople, Ivanka and Donny accept. You’d then have a situation in which the Russian dictator has, through a proxy, deposited millions or even tens of millions of dollars into the bank account of the president of the United States.

Or it wouldn’t even have to be as public as a hotel with a “Trump” sign on it. What if that same developer just hired the Trump children to be “consultants”? Since the money would flow through the company, it would mean that foreign governments or interests could be paying untold sums to the American president.

This could be repeated in countries all over the world. And since the Trump corporation is privately held, we might never know all the details. We might be able to figure them out if Trump released his tax returns, but he refused to do so, despite almost certainly having more potential financial conflicts of interest than any president in history. And forget about seeing them after his IRS audit is done, the lame excuse Trump gave for not releasing them during the campaign. I promise you this: Donald Trump is never going to make his tax returns public. Never.

So we’re going to have to rely on the Trump family’s strong ethical code to reassure ourselves that nothing problematic will go on when it comes to the entwining of Trump’s business interests and U.S. government policy. The problem is that absolutely nothing we have learned about Trump suggests that he will operate in a remotely ethical way when it comes to opportunities to enrich himself once he becomes president. We’re talking about a man who allegedly ran multiple grifts on gullible customers (Trump University, the Trump Institute, the Trump Network); who used the bankruptcy laws to escape the collapse of his casinos, leaving investors holding the bag while he made out like a bandit in a kind of Atlantic City version of “The Producers”; who ran a foundation that was essentially a scam from top to bottom; who regularly stiffed contractors when he knew they were too small to fight him; who used undocumented workers and reportedly had foreign models lie to customs officials so that they could work illegally in the United States, who once paid $750,000 to the Federal Trade Commission to settle an antitrust suit, and who was generally revealed to be, if not the most spectacularly corrupt businessman in the United States, then certainly a strong contender for that title.

The irony is that so many of Trump’s supporters believed his preposterous claim that he would be the one to banish corruption from Washington, that he’d “drain the swamp” and send that crooked establishment packing. He’ll do nothing of the sort, of course; his transition team is drowning in corporate lobbyists, and among his first priorities are cutting taxes for the wealthy and removing oversight from Wall Street. But that’s standard Republican fare; what’s different and probably unprecedented is the way Trump will increase his fortune by hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars while he’s president.

[Seshmeister]

Probably not. He's not threatening anyone he's wishing someone else will rape and/ or murder anyone who voted for "lucifer". But he must be mixed up about the parties and the colors though. Lucifer belongs to the other party. The blue state party.

[Nickdfresh]

George H W Bush but that's irrelevant. Obama promised change. What did he deliver? The same old bullshit.

Did you vote for him?

[Nickdfresh]

I'm thinking you're a fucking homo. Contemplating the rate of growth of another man's erect penis isn't normal heterosexual behavior.

Oh, I forgot how manly you are and that you're afraid to touch your own penis because it might make you yearn for other ones...

[Jérôme Frenchise]

Is this Dirty Don's teacher genuinely quoted here? If it is, it's a gem.

Well, if it isn't, it's plausible anyway.

[Jérôme Frenchise]

I've just checked, it's for real... How low can it still go, really?

[FORD]

Well, apparently he just appointed Jefferson Davis Sessions III as Attorney General. An admitted racist piece of shit who only resigned from the Ku Klux Klan because "those guys smoked too much pot"

[Jérôme Frenchise]

because "those guys smoked too much pot"

Well, if they did smoke, they'd be cooler and more open-minded, wouldn't they?

Oh, wait... If they do smoke, how stupid and mean would they be, then?

A former KKK member, now... It's getting lower and lower every day as more shit is stirred up. Not hitting bottom, but digging through it!

[cadaverdog]

Oh, I forgot how manly you are and that you're afraid to touch your own penis because it might make you yearn for other ones...

What's that got to do with you contemplating the size of my erection? If you're looking for a date, look elsewhere. Pimp Dog don't swing that way.

[cadaverdog]

Did you vote for him?

George H W Bush? Of course I did.

[cadaverdog]

Donald Trump was a "little shit" when he was 10. Shocking.

[cadaverdog]

You guys need to get together and take a meeting up in Northern California. All that crying you've been doing since President Elect Trump won the election would surely go along way in solving the problems the drought has caused there.

[Nickdfresh]

What's that got to do with you contemplating the size of my erection? If you're looking for a date, look elsewhere. Pimp Dog don't swing that way.

I'm not that small minded...

[cadaverdog]

I'm not that small minded...

In other words you prefer bigger dicks. Whatever floats your boat Twinkletoes.

[FORD]

[Nickdfresh]

In other words you prefer bigger dicks. Whatever floats your boat Twinkletoes.

Yeah, my own with the appropriate sized sock:
:

[cadaverdog]

Yeah, my own. I'm double jointed at the waist.

Like I said before whatever floats your boat sperm burper.

[Nickdfresh]

Like I said before whatever floats your boat sperm burper.

It's kind of strange that you're hurling the gay-card insults when you're the one bringing up the "sperm-burping" homo obsessions...

The bitter old man thing is getting really old bud...

[cadaverdog]

The bitter old man thing is getting really old bud...

I was thinking the same thing about your "I think I'll post something stupid about Cadaverdog because I don't have anything better to do" shtick.

[Nickdfresh]

I was thinking the same thing about your "I think I'll post something stupid about Cadaverdog because I don't have anything better to do" shtick.

"Or the I can't hold a job because the Mexicans are stealing mine and nothing is ever my fault" shtick...

[Von Halen]

Nick voted for Trump.

[Kristy]

The most hilarious thing of all, is the dumbfuck lesbians being so worried they're going to lose their same sex marriage rights. Fucking stupid bitches can't stay married to men or women! They'll just save those stupid twats from the aggravation of having to go through a divorce, if they do revoke their rights!

When are you going to come out of the closet and admit you're more queer than Elton John's wardrobe?

[Nickdfresh]

Nick voted for Trump.

I voted for beer and got drunk instead...

[katina]

Glad he will not land in Washington with boxes of Ferrero Rocher.

[Seshmeister]

When in history did a president of a country think they got to choose the ambassador another country sent to him?

A guy who has repeatedly failed to get elected to our parliament and whose party has 1 seat out of 650.

[cadaverdog]

"Or the I can't hold a job because the Mexicans are stealing mine and nothing is ever my fault" shtick...

Did you go to a special school to learn how to be such an asshole or does it come naturally to you?

[cadaverdog]

I voted for beer and got drunk instead...

I've got that on video.

[DONNIEP]

When are you going to come out of the closet and admit you're more queer than Elton John's wardrobe?

He had some cool sunglasses.

[Von Halen]

He had some cool sunglasses.

Thanks. They're prescription.

[cadaverdog]

Kind of hypocritical trying to reduce the list of evil doings you accused Hillary of before she lost the election to just the bullshit e mail thing that was nothing but a diversion to keep people from finding out about some of the other bullshit she's been involved in like Benghazi Next thing you know you're gonna claim you were only joking about Hillary being BCE.

[Nickdfresh]

I've got that on video.

Do they carry that at Walmart?

And why do you keep bringing up the gay stuff? Obsessed buddy?

[katina]

When in history did a president of a country think they got to choose the ambassador another country sent to him?

You are right, but he tried, that is scary and the media still give Farage the oxygen of publicity

[Von Halen]

Happy Trumpsgiving, motherfuckers!



The U.S. dollar is surging in value against currencies around the world following the election of Donald Trump. Read it and weep, HilLIARy lovers!
