Well well. It seems that Donald has greater debts than previously thought. And who does he owe it to? Bank of China and Goldman Sachs amongst others. Hmmm who does/did he rail against?
"But an investigation by The New York Times into the financial maze of Mr. Trump’s real estate holdings in the United States reveals that companies he owns have at least $650 million in debt — twice the amount than can be gleaned from public filings he has made as part of his bid for the White House.

Trump’s Empire: a Maze of Debts and Opaque Ties
On the campaign trail, Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, has sold himself as a businessman who has made billions of dollars and is beholden to no one.
But an investigation by The New York Times into the financial maze of Mr. Trump’s real estate holdings in the United States reveals that companies he owns have at least $650 million in debt — twice the amount than can be gleaned from public filings he has made as part of his bid for the White House. The Times’s inquiry also found that Mr. Trump’s fortunes depend deeply on a wide array of financial backers, including one he has cited in attacks during his campaign.
For example, an office building on Avenue of the Americas in Manhattan, of which Mr. Trump is part owner, carries a $950 million loan. Among the lenders: the Bank of China, one of the largest banks in a country that Mr. Trump has railed against as an economic foe of the United States, and Goldman Sachs, a financial institution he has said controls Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee, after it paid her $675,000 in speaking fees.
Real estate projects often involve complex ownership and mortgage structures. And given Mr. Trump’s long real estate career in the United States and abroad, as well as his claim that his personal wealth exceeds $10 billion, it is safe to say that no previous major party presidential nominee has had finances nearly as complicated.
As president, Mr. Trump would have substantial sway over monetary and tax policy, as well as the power to make appointments that would directly affect his own financial empire. He would also wield influence over legislative issues that could have a significant impact on his net worth, and would have official dealings with countries in which he has business interests.
Yet The Times’s examination underscored how much of Mr. Trump’s business remains shrouded in mystery. He has declined to disclose his tax returns or allow an independent valuation of his assets.
Earlier in the campaign, Mr. Trump submitted a 104-page federal financial disclosure form. It said his businesses owed at least $315 million to a relatively small group of lenders and listed ties to more than 500 limited liability companies. Though he answered the questions, the form appears to have been designed for candidates with simpler finances than his, and did not require disclosure of portions of his business activities.
Beyond finding that companies owned by Mr. Trump had debts of at least $650 million, The Times discovered that a substantial portion of his wealth is tied up in three passive partnerships that owe an additional $2 billion to a string of lenders, including those that hold the loan on the Avenue of the Americas building. If those loans were to go into default, Mr. Trump might not be held personally liable, but the value of his investments would sink.

What are we gonna do now? Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
'Cause they're working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we're working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men To be young believers
i dont tolerate stupid ideologies. i do not tolerate bigotry (from w/e religion and way of life) and xenophobia, mostly because its blatantly stupid. you want to curb the rights of some people based on how statistics works (like how some muslim countries outlaw homosexuality, when it should be as important to the state as if someone is left or right handed, how some stupid people bomb abortion clinics and kill medics who perform late term abrtions, that are done because of the risk on the mother, like how in 2016 there's still blatant racism in the US). i do consider that there are many muslims that are tolerant toward gay people, well, yes and many of them are among the younger generations (even in iran), like in every religion and way of life, the young ones see the imbecility of the older bigots, and understand that many of said "sins" are mere statistical events.
so no, i do not tolerate the alt-right.

I'm perfectly aware that the left in the US can tolerate muslims but not southerners. It's comedy gold from my point of view. And while you champaign a great moral cause, I can't help to but think you are a bit naive.

i tolerate individuals, based on their behavior. as i've said before, statistics are an important thing. that's why the internet is important, it lets people from those countries learn and understand that many things that are morally wrong for a religion, are only events in a normal distribution.

Yes that's why Trump is down 5-15 points in most swing states, Clinton is polling competitively in places like Georgia, and is behind by only ~5 points in extremely red states like Kansas and Texas.
You white supremacists are getting crucified politically and your candidate is going down in flames. It's just laughable to read your delusional nonsense. You should stop tuning into nutters like Michael Savage and Rush Limburgh and join reality.
No, you're mistaken. Feminists are a unique species that only lay their eggs in the bodies of white hetero males. Though some scientists believe that they are as target practices for the feminlings.

I highly doubt democrats can take away the second amendment and I higly doubt that muslims can outpopulace all of the entire world. Also I feel like the menace of feminists is well overblown.
Just because I live in florida now is no reason to call me a southerner, Colorado is where my heart is! But my 87 year old grandma needs someone to take care of her and I'm just to old fashion not to.

They don't have the ability to strike the 2nd yet but they would in a heart beat just to be like our euro brothers and sisters. Just like abortion rights gun rights must be protected with diligence.
