Mega-Thread: Mueller investigation

[kaelleria]

Those words always reflect thickheadedness. Notice how nothing comes of this.

[Jeezy911]

you fail to point out that in the same period pretty much everyone else gained a fuckton of money. And since when 1+ Billion dollar loss is considered "some money"?
But you will never adress this

He literally wrote about it in a book. This is not news.

[Shadowferal]

He literally wrote about it in a book. This is not news.

No he didn't.

[Orbitus]

He literally wrote about it in a book. This is not news.

If you are talking about Art of the Deal, it wasn't written by him, and the author laughs at him every day because of it. That and that book was written at the same time when he was losing all this money. Trump is the shittiest deal maker, and probably fucking broke.

[Jeezy911]

Trump never won any NAACP award.

Sorry Ellis Island Award, basically the same thing.

[Templar 331]

No he didn't.

Don't know what's in the book but he sure didn't write it.

[Shalcker]

No he didn't.

He was called by NYT "Comeback King" for that reason in 1995...

[Orbitus]

Sorry Ellis Island Award, basically the same thing.

Not even remotely close.

[Jeezy911]

You're in the wrong thread. Fuck off.

Are you one of those tolerant liberals I keep hearing about? You cannot be left wing and a tough guy at the same time, it is impossible. Stop being fake.

Yeah, that wasn't the NAACP though, Jizzy just trying to out lie Trump I guess.

It's the same thing, pointless awards for the most popular among the media. "You help black people" here is a trophy, think about how stupid that really is.

At minimum it means his net worth isnt 10 billion. In reality it means traditional banks wouldn't loan to him because his cash flow is volatile and probably negative. His own CPAs overvalue his intangible assets and therefore distort any underwriting a bank could do. So he goes to Deutschebank and Russian oligarchs for cash that he spent with no intention of paying back, forcing him to become a witting/unwitting agent of the Kremlin.

Does it really matter what your worth is after a billion? It's all play money at that point.

[Shadowferal]

Does it really matter what your worth is after losing a billion? It's all play money at that point.

Fixed that for you...

[Daelak]

Does it really matter what your worth is after a billion? It's all play money at that point.

I don't know, but I don't even think Trump thinks he is a billionaire. It's all a con, his entire life has been a long con on himself, his children, his wives. Let this serve as a lesson for any other wealthy family who makes their son a multi-millionaire at age 6 to see how quickly they become a malignant narcissist and a pathological liar.

[shimerra]

Does it really matter what your worth is after a billion? It's all play money at that point.

Normally no. Which begs the question why Trump had to lie about it inflating the amount by billions? And also lie about record setting losses. And why you constantly excuse and even encourage every lie? Remember the multiple tantrums he threw about the tax returns of others and then the dozens of lies about why he can't release his?

Seriously why do you insist on pleasuring Trump's genitals I sincerely hope you are paid for your efforts.

It's not the same thing, the reward he won had zero to do with helping black people. Stop derailing the thread with your lies. Fuck off.

Sorry Ellis Island Award, basically the same thing.

Hmm. Let's review what the NYTimes said when the winners were announced.

Eighty Americans from 42 ethnic groups were named yesterday as recipients of the Ellis Island Medal of Honor by the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation.

The medals will be presented to the recipients, all either naturalized or native Americans, at a ceremony Oct. 27 on Ellis Island. That is the day before the 100th anniversary of the dedication of the Statue of Liberty, the final event of the 1986 Liberty Centennial observances.

The anouncement of the awards was made at a news conference in a midtown restaurant by the president of the foundation, William F. May, and the chairman of the New York Statue of Liberty Centennial Commission, William D. Fugazy.

Honorary medals will also be presented to John Cardinal O'Connor; Lee A. Iacocca, chairman of the foundation, and Mr. May. Reaction by Koch

Mr. Fugazy said the medal was thought up in June, after the foundation's naming of 12 naturalized Americans for the Medal of Liberty had produced an outcry. Critics of the award noted then that not even such major ethnic groups as the Irish, Italians and Poles were represented among the 12.

At the end of June, Mayor Koch reacted to the protests by naming 87 prominent Americans of foreign ancestry to receive the 1986 Mayor's Libery Award. Some of those honored by the Mayor are also on the Ellis Island list.

Those named yesterday were selected from more than 15,000 nominations. The winners, a mixture of prominent and relatively unknown citizens, were screened by the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations, which was selected for the work by the foundation.

Wow. That doesn't look like the NAACP at all. That looks like something entirely different. In fact, I think this is part of it:

Donald J. Trump, German, developer

Yep. Trump won because his father was German. Yeah, this was about immigration. You know, Ellis Island and stuff?

Have fun with that.

Indeed. I came here and got @Shadowferal ninja'd. Which sounds amazing.

If Jr. refuses to sit down before the GOP-led Senate, I think there's going to be some blowback. The GOP is already taking issues over a few "minor" details like all their voters losing their steel and farming jobs because Trump. Refusing to answer even questions softballed by a tortoise isn't going to help.

My mind immediately go's to "what's the angle here" because Republicans control the senate intel committee and I can't see them actually wanting to ask him some tough questions.

Find a way to exclude the Democrats, throw some softballs and claim that is the end of the matter? and Trump gets to use it as a defence for not going to the House committee's?
