Blatant corruption must be acknowledged and dealt with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah right. Can't wait for the investigation to start into the Clinton Foundation and that 10 million donation from the German Government just before the election!

Deutsche Bank have probably paid more in fines for interest rate manipulation, facilitating money laundering and other offences than the Blond Buffoon is worth.  Looks like he chose the right bank though!

 

DB, Siemens, VW Audi, etc etc etc.

 

German companies are very flexible regarding any laws!

It's the right decision by the court under federal law.

 

It would be the right decision whether Trump was president, or Obama, or Nixon or Kennedy, etc. etc...  It's all about the balance of power enshrined in the U.S. Constitution between the president, Congress and the courts, and Congress exercising its constitutional oversight authority.

 

Trump could probably have avoided this if he had at the outset made public his federal tax returns as a candidate, as have all other presidents in modern times. But obviously, he's a man with A LOT to hide, and that mountain has probably been growing exponentially higher ever since he got elected.

 

BTW, the NYT article over the weekend detailing how Deutsche Bank ignored the recommendations of its own anti-corruption/money laundering enforcement staff and refused to report to the feds, as required, suspicious banking transactions involving Trump, Kushner and unnamed Russians, among others, is a VERY interesting read. Hopefully the congressional oversight committees will add that piece to their Trump portfolio.

Obviously not familiar with US courts. A Federal judge cannot order a no appeals status. The Trump team will just bring this to another court and either get a stay or appeal. The Trump bashers here tend to forget the Obama years and the constant stonewalling that was the corner stone of the Obama legal troubles. All established practices that all future administrations will follow. Democrats simply don't like their own strategy being used against them.

The corner stone of the Obama legal troubles? What are you on about.

While I share the view that openness should apply to all Presidents, I would remind everyone that a case regarding who from the White House could or should be brought in front the Houses of Congress and their various committees was only settled last week - and that was from President Obama's second term!

 

It is so easy to get something tangled up in the legal weeds in the USA. Trump may well be long gone before any of this is solved.

5. They will reveal that he has not paid taxes in decades. For a man who constantly claims to be a patriot, yet is anything but, this is not something he wants the public to see.

Somehow I doubt that the public will be given access to the documents from his accounting firm(s).  Non stop rants and denials will be sufficient to convince his base that he's their only savior.

The Clinton Foundation investigation started a long time ago.  https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/the-fbi-is-investigating-the-clinton-foundation/2018/01/05/1aca0d4a-f1cf-11e7-97bf-bba379b809ab_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.ba7f0befebbc

 

Nothing yet, even under a Trump Justice Department.  The Trump foundation investigation is a different story: 

 

" The New York State attorney general’s office filed a scathingly worded lawsuit on Thursday taking aim at the Donald J. Trump Foundation, accusing the charity and the Trump family of sweeping violations of campaign finance laws, self-dealing and illegal coordination with the presidential campaign. "  https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/14/nyregion/trump-foundation-lawsuit-attorney-general.html

You're right, I don't remember Obama having legal troubles anything like this.  I don't recall Obama personally having any legal troubles.  Care to enlighten us?

Are you referring to this -->"U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington also denied a request by Trump to stay his decision pending an appeal."

 

The Trump lawyers probably filed an immediate request to stay.  The judge did nothing improper in denying it.

Why do you keep repeating this false claim? As I have pointed out before, there was no donation from the German Government to the Clinton Foundation. See my previous post on this:
