TH3 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Point of note: this is not out of the ordinary for the Clinton's. The..."partnership" between favored businesses and people and the State Department during Bill's administration that often diplomats in other countries (particularly those with a history of state-owned business) did not know the difference. How to you compare that to the bribes...err contributions/strong arm/political coziness that Trumps dad used so well and Trump used to get his projects off the ground and full of tax credits.....is it that much different?

B-Man Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Saudi Arabia hates religious freedom, LOVES Clinton Foundation Aug 11, 2016 9:21 AM by Larry O'Connor The Obama Administration released a report condemning many nations for religious freedom violations and atrocities Wednesday specifically pointing out Muslim nations that practice extreme enforcement of Shariah Law. The fact that the report was read from the briefing room in the State Department, just a few hundred yards from the office once occupied by Hillary Clinton is a special kind of irony. You see, some of the countries detailed in this report on gross violations of basic human rights like religious freedom also appear on the regular donor list of the Clinton Foundation: (PolitiFact) Maybe this cozy relationship is one of the many reasons why Hillary has gained such favor in the all-important “Parents of radical Islamic terrorists” voting bloc.

Azalin Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 What's wrong with tax credits? You know, the usual - wealthy people are supposed to get reamed on their taxes. It's the socialist way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 What's wrong with tax credits? He didn't say anything was wrong with tax credits. He accused Trump of bribing and strong-arming local and state governments in to giving him tax credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your whole reason to be on this board to simply post ridiculously stupid questions? Because if it is, I have to admit, you're very good at it.

Dante Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Based on what? His long track record of doing nothing of the sort? At least he's worth money and he didn't steal it. So I assume he's not bad at business That's a leg up on everyone else imho. I have no insight to his business acumen or lack there of. Most info is spun and manipulated to make a person arrive at the desired conclusion. So in the arena of politics, particularly this year, I believe only the hard numbers and what I see. Guy has 5 billion net worth and managed to stay relevant for this many years it's good for me. You probably will say this is to simplistic or uniformed. Possibly but it's also possible my mind isn't poisoned by all the bullshite out there. Especially when all the power is aligned against Trump. Who believes anything said about him at this point?
