When Trump speaks, it may sound like a slip up, but it usually accomplishes something.

If only Marco had been born with a platinum stick up his ass...

Trump also wants to ban Super Pacs because he thinks if you take money from anybody, they own you. No... He just wants to prevent those who can't self finance from running.

Fuck that supreme douchebag.

And before anybody says all I do is bash Trump, I think it's been a couple weeks since I posted anything about Trump. I'm just sick of a piece of shit whose businesses declared bankruptcy FOUR times (fucking over investors and creditors) lecturing those without BILLIONS on their financial ethics.

No, he hasn't.

It was ONE company that filed several times. He would pull it out and try to save it, then eventually said fuck it. A successful businessman that doesn't give up sounds like someone I'd want for prez.

Why the rabid defense of Trump?

That guy only cares about one person, that's himself.  He wants to be president for his own ego, not for America, but for himself.  He stands for nothing but himself.  Trump is entertaining, but he is a salesman and an entertainer, not a leader.

Not a Trump supporter.



Having looked into Trump's affairs, I would accuse him of lying about being broke, having nothing and having to start over again before saying he went bankrupt.  As near as I can research, Trump starts companies, gets them financed and if a company fails then that company fails.  Has Trump lost money, yes. Has Trump had businesses go bankrupt, yes.  Has Trump been more successful at starting business than most others, yes.  Has Trump himself gone bankrupt, maybe once but I am not sure about (and that is just my opinion).



What most interested me about Trump is the diversity of both people and types of investors that Trump has gotten money out of.

So it's okay to bash Trump by means of misdirection, half truths, omissions and outright falsehoods.

Rubio on the other hand, is a sock puppet for the donor class illegal alien crowd.........great choice to hand our country over to his donors and the hordes of illegal alien invaders.

He's right on.... all PAC money after elections should be taxed and remaining turned back over to the donors.  This way, the super rich billion will not donate in the obscene levels they do today.  And, once the politician loses, or wins, that excess money is not lying around in a savings account of sorts from those donors for owning politicians like Pelosi, Reid, Boner, and McConnell.

Trump is a fucking blowhard!    It is typical of Trump, as he falls behind, he attacks those gaining on him.  Right now he's berating Carson and Rubio, he's already badmouthed Carly and Jeb. (btw none of those are my choice).  He can't speak to the issues of our country except in generalities, and usually ends every policy question with "Elect me, and it's going to be great".

Trump is nothing more than a narcissistic asshole, in the same mold as BHO, who has labeled himself a Republican even though he isn't.  He has tapped into the anger of the electorate with the current administration, just as BHO used the anger with the Bush administration to get elected.  Neither Trump nor BHO is worthy or capable of being President of the United States of America.

Opinion has nothing to do with it.  He himself has not gone bankrupt.

The fact that his business have used those laws is largely irrelevant.  If someone hasn't done a business turnaround then they can't really criticize the use of those laws as a reorganization tool for a company.  Investors in those companies demanded a return which took into account the risk of bankruptcy (as do all lending transactions).

If you look at Trump's financial disclosure form, he owns over 100 different companies.  Honestly it's remarkable that only 4 (and I believe it might have been one of his companies that went bankrupt a few times) of his companies went bankrupt.  He himself has never gone bankrupt.  There is a HUGE distinction there.  I would agree that someone who has personally gone bankrupt is not fit to be president, but that is not the case with Trump.

Criticizing someone's PERSONAL use of credit cards is definitely a legitimate attack.  As someone who works in the financial services industry I have found that how well or poorly a client manages his credit speaks volumes about how functional he or she is as a person in many aspects of his or her life.  Can people make mistakes and change?  Certainly.  But by and large, bad credit means that person is overall quite dysfunctional.  Rubio's bad credit history coupled with his poor senate attendance raises all sorts of red flags.

I've pointed out to some Bernie Sanders supporters I know that Bernie has an absolute shit record with his personal finances as well.  He's been a member of Congress since 1990 with a salary over $100k nearly every year but as of now he has a paltry net worth of somewhere around $500k, which is absolutely abysmal given that level of income for so many years, if he actually had any financial ability his net worth should be well over that.  Bernie has also carried credit card balances of over $25k at one point which again points to dysfunction with managing finances, and this doesn't even touch on his wacky socialist views.

It's a loser argument from Trump, because the flip to that is if you can't manage your businesses finances and have to have them declare bankruptcy, then you can't manage the govs finances either.

And frankly, managing a businesses finances are much more akin to running the govs than your personal finances/credit cards are.  

Trump is worried about Rubio, but there's not much to hit the guy on...and that's why he's worried about him.

IMO you are watching the beginning of the Trump death spiral, and because he is a piece of shit he is going to drag as many down with him as possible and damage the GOP chances in the general.

Thus far my success rate is 100%, so if you just want to go by percentages....

Honestly, when you start off with millions, it is a LOT easier to be successful.  And kudos to him for building his empire, but recognize that a lot of his businesses aren't uber successful, they are tax shelters etc.  I guarantee you he has companies in his portfolio that are designed to lose money...the fact that they do so doesn't mean they will be shut down, they are serving their purpose.  So the whole 96% argument is a dramatic oversimplification and shows a lack of understanding of how large business portfolios work.
