Trump is a criminal and a liar. He refuses to release his tax returns because of the unethical ways he conducts business. The dishonesty with which he and his staff tried to hide the bribe to Pam Bondi, Florida's AG, was astonishing, but only the tip of the iceberg. I would bet he has mafia ties too. What a sleaze, sneaking around in the dark, accusing Clinton of being dishonest - what hubris. Just 59 more days until Trump shuts his trap for good. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote :

If you've read even one news item in the last 365 day, Mike, you would realize he may not only be as rich as he claims but for sure he has stolen millions from those who trusted him, worked for him (often illegally) and lied his way all the way to the bank. What you may not realize is that most of the crap that has his name on it has nothing to do with him having built it or financed it - he simply acts like a franchise selling his name to anyone stupid enough to want to label their apartment or their product "Trump". www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2016/09/05/trumps-history-of-corruption-is-mind-boggling-so-why-is-clinton-supposedly-the-corrupt-one/?utm_term=.771fe6b0e504 How's your economic status Ollie? Probably none of your bees wax. In case you're too lazy to click on the link (which isn't clickable, as it turns out), here is a synopsis: But the truth is that you’d have to work incredibly hard to find a politician who has the kind of history of corruption, double-dealing, and fraud that Donald Trump has. The number of stories which could potentially deserve hundreds and hundreds of articles is absolutely staggering. Here’s a partial list: Trump’s casino bankruptcies http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/12/nyregion/donald-trump-atlantic-city.html, which left investors holding the bag while he skedaddled with their money Trump’s habit of refusing http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2016/06/09/donald-trump-unpaid-bills-republican-president-laswuits/85297274/ to pay contractors who had done work for him, many of whom are struggling small businesses Trump University http://www.newyorker.com/news/john-cassidy/trump-university-its-worse-than-you-think, which includes not only the people who got scammed and the Florida investigation, but also a similar story from Texas http://www.cbsnews.com/news/former-texas-official-says-he-was-told-to-drop-trump-university-probe/ where the investigation into Trump U was quashed. The Trump Institute, another get-rich-quick scheme in which Trump allowed a couple of grifters http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/04/07/these-grifters-inspired-trump-institute.html to use his name to bilk people out of their money The Trump Network, a multi-level marketing venture https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/03/23/the-trump-network-sought-to-make-people-rich-but-left-behind-disappointment/ (a.k.a. pyramid scheme) that involved customers mailing in a urine sample which would be analyzed to produce for them a specially formulated package of multivitamins Trump Model Management, which reportedly http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/08/donald-trump-model-management-illegal-immigrationhad foreign models lie to customs officials and work in the U.S. illegally, and kept them in squalid conditions while they earned almost nothing for the work they did Trump’s employment https://www.buzzfeed.com/jessicagarrison/trump-seeks-more-foreign-guestworkers-for-his-companies of foreign guest workers at his resorts, which involves a claim that he can’t find Americans to do the work Trump’s use http://www.nytimes.com/1998/06/14/nyregion/after-15-years-in-court-workers-lawsuit-against-trump-faces-yet-another-delay.html?pagewanted=all of hundreds of undocumented workers from Poland in the 1980s, who were paid a pittance for their illegal work Trump’s history http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/28/us/politics/donald-trump-housing-race.html of being charged with housing discrimination Trump’s connections http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/05/donald-trump-2016-mob-organized-crime-213910?paginate=false to mafia figures involved in New York construction The time Trump paid http://www.apnewsarchive.com/1988/Trump-Agrees-To-Pay-%24750-000-Penalty-To-Settle-Antitrust-Lawsuit/id-54ea0dc590fc97d9e9e86c65336649a1 the Federal Trade Commission $750,000 over charges that he violated anti-trust laws when trying to take over a rival casino company The fact that Trump is now being advised by Roger Ailes, who was forced out as Fox News chief when dozens of women came forward http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/09/how-fox-news-women-took-down-roger-ailes.html to charge him with sexual harassment. According to the allegations, Ailes’s behavior was positively monstrous; as just one indicator, his abusive and predatory actions toward women were so well-known and so loathsome that in 1968 the morally upstanding folks in the Nixon administration refused to allow him to work there despite his key role in getting Nixon elected. And that last one is happening right now. To repeat, the point is not that these stories have neverbeen covered, because they have. The point is that they get covered briefly, then everyone in the media moves on. If any of these kinds of stories involved Clinton, news organizations would rush to assign multiple reporters to them, those reporters would start asking questions, and we’d learn more about all of them. That’s important, because we may have reached a point where the frames around the candidates are locked in: Trump is supposedly the crazy/bigoted one, and Clinton is supposedly the corrupt one. Once we decide that those are the appropriate lenses through which the two candidates are to be viewed, it shapes the decisions the media make every day about which stories are important to pursue. And it means that to a great extent, for all the controversy he has caused and all the unflattering stories in the press about him, Trump is still being let off the hook. From: "olliesedwuz@...
