boomerangutang Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I watched Ryan's speech. He could take a spoiled loaf of bread and sing praises about the pretty colors of mold. He's trying so hard to paint the meeting in a positive light, that I almost feel sorry for the guy. If the talks with Donald when went 1/10th as well as he describes them, they would both walk out on stage with smiles and joyful backslapping. They still have deep schisms, but neither can say so publicly, so they have to try and sugar-coat everything, as if the public are a bunch of dummies. "Donald Trump is considering former House Speaker Newt Gingrich as one possible option for his running mate in November, according to a source familiar with the discussions." http://time.com/4328193/donald-trump-newt-gingrich-vice-president/ Excellent. Good choice. They don't get any smarter or crafty than Newt. Ted Cruz for the Supreme Court and make America Great Again! Great, they can run on a "Dump The Tired Old Wife" platform. Newt is so yesterday. He's like the school principal who kept saying, "Do as I say, not as I do." I'd rather see Trump take Palin for the entertainment value, but regardless of whether he takes Newt (or anyone else) he's bound for Loserville. The Loserville Sluggers of 2016.

iReason Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 The supposed "billionaire" bloviates: "I'm really, really rich". Prove it. And stop flip-flopping. Trump’s cowardly lyin’: Another sad excuse not to release his tax returns "At this point, voters will never get to judge whether Trump has met the citizen’s financial obligation to country because once again, he has played for chumps the voters who believe they’re supporting an anti-politician who tells it like it is. Follow the words of the man who brags, “Everything I say I’m going to do, folks, I do.” February last year, he said: “I have no objection to certainly showing tax returns.” October: "He would release his returns “maybe when we find out the true story on Hillary’s emails,” adding “at some point I’ll release it.” Feb. 2016: “I will get it done as soon as I can.” Friday: Surrogate Ben Carson pledged Trump would release his returns before Election Day. Tuesday: “There’s nothing to learn from them,” Trump told the Associated Press, which reported he “doesn’t expect to release his tax returns before November” and “dismissed the idea that voters have a right to see” them. http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/trump-cowardly-lyin-article-1.2633867 Donald Trump: I'll release tax returns after audit (CNN)Donald Trump said Wednesday that he plans to release his taxes when an IRS audit is completed, despite telling the Associated Press the previous day that he would not release his tax documents. "In interview I told @AP that my taxes are under routine audit and I would release my tax returns when audit is complete, not after election!" the real estate mogul tweeted Wednesday, after Trump's critics, including Mitt Romney and other Republicans, who have urged Trump to make his tax returns available." In February, the IRS said: "Federal privacy rules prohibit the IRS from discussing individual tax matters. Nothing prevents individuals from sharing their own tax information." "Still, Trump has also refused to release his tax returns from previous years, which are no longer under IRS audit." http://edition.cnn.com/2016/05/11/politics/donald-trump-tax-returns/index.html Donald Trump Says He Will Release Tax Returns Once 'Audit Is Complete' "When asked if he would pledge to release them before the election, Trump responded, "Sure, if -- if -- if the auditors finish. I'll do it as fast as the audit is finished.” "Such a move is nearly unprecedented in modern elections. Indeed, Trump will be the first presumptive major party nominee since 1976 not to release his tax returns. He has maintained that he cannot release his returns because they are under audit and has provided documentation to attest that the audit is ongoing." (Of course, that is a lie) http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/donald-trump-release-tax-returns-election/story?id=39039525 The Bloviator. Playing the lemmings like a fiddle... And don't forget writer, Timothy O'Brien's book (Trump Nation), where he revealed that although the Bloviator claimed to be worth 6 billion, in actuality, his worth was between $150/250 million.

"The hedge fund guys didn't build this country. These are guys that shift paper around and they get lucky," Trump said. "They are energetic. They are very smart. But a lot of them - they are paper-pushers. They make a fortune. They pay no tax. It's ridiculous, ok?" "It is the wrong thing. These guys are getting away with murder." http://www.reuters.com/article/us-election-trump-hedgefunds-idUSKCN0QS0P120150823 Wow! Sounds like the Bloviator is onto something. Naa, after lying about self-funding his campaign, who has he decided to suck up to? ( you guessed it ) Wall St. Hedge Fund Mgrs. Yup. He will be sucking up to them for a cool BILLION.

boomerangutang Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Another group of entities which pay no taxes: RELIGIONS. It doesn't take much to be officially declared a religion in the US. I jest not. There are a few easy-to-comply requirements, basically it's check the right boxes on a simple form. Scientology got declared a Religion after a protracted fight with IRS. They actually did it the Trump way: They threatened to sue IRS if religious status wasn't granted, ....and won. Scientologists also bombarded IRS with very many frivolous requests and threats. BTW, Trump wants to abolish IRS (along with the Dept. of Education). Make whatever connections you want. Yet it would be curious to know how the candidates say on the topic of tax-exemption on religions (in general) and Scientology and TV preachers (in particular). On second thought, it doesn't matter where Trump says he stands on those issues, because he can readily flip or flop the next day. HRC, on the other hand, has probably thought about these issues and has an opinion that won't waver, depending on which way the polls vote. HRC is driven by education and convictions. Trump just takes whatever side he thinks will garner the most votes. If he finds out the next day, he can get more votes by taking an opposing position, he'll switch as easily as a bird sitting on a tree branch.

The Bloviator promised you he would be self-funded and even put up his own BILLION DOLLARS if necessary. He lied. He didn’t. He went to Wall St. Check. The Bloviator promised you he would ban 1 BILLION people from entering the U.S.A. It’s illegal. No one can. Check. The Bloviator promised you “the biggest wall” Ain’t gonna happen. Check. The Bloviator promised you he would deport 11 MILLION people. It ain’t gonna happen. Check. The Bloviator promised you he would bomb the “Hell out of ISIS and their families.” Thereby, committing willful War Crimes. Ain’t gonna happen. Check. The Bloviator promised you he would order the Military to torture people. Thereby, committing willful War Crimes. Claiming “If I tell them to do it, they will do it.” Ain’t gonna happen. Check. The Bloviator promised you he would impose 35/45% import Tariffs on China and Mexico. The countries, along with Bangladesh where he, and his former wife Ivana produce their apparel lines. Ain’t gonna happen. Check. The Bloviator promised you he is a Billionaire. And would prove it. He lied. And “dismissed the idea that voters have a right to see” them.” (his tax records) Check. At at the end of the day, whadayagot ? All ya got is a hard on for Hillary Clinton. In addition to shallow, bigoted hopes and dreams that some bigoted huckster played up to. But hell, at least y’all got a trucker cap with a Ronald Reagan slogan on it.

boomerangutang Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Donald Trump has thousands of fans in Europe and India — And the New York billionaire even has fans in China. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/05/12/politics/china-trump-fans/index.html That's a lot of Chinese! The Chinese would probably be better off with a Trump presidency. With Trump there will likely be a trade war, as T has already declared he will add 35 to 45% trade tariffs. The losers will be businesses on both sides of the Pacific, but also American consumers, who will see prices rise dramatically. However, waging a trade war (even if it's lose-lose for China and the US) is not as bad as sparking military action in the South China Sea. Trump will make threats about military action in the SCS but he's not likely to back it up with more than a few military sorties in the region. He may enact an embargo of the islands the Chinese took from the Philippines, but it would backfire and wind up worsening America's reputation (expect headlines like; "US military embargo hurts civilians on islands"). HRC, on the other hand, has knowledge and resolve. She's not wishy washy like Trump. For Hillary, money is not God, as it is for Trump and the Chinese. More important is doing what's right. In the case of SCS, doing what's right is; 'standing by our friends during times when their territories are being taken by a more powerful country: China.' Looked at in that perspective, Trump is better for the Chinese than HRC, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
