    So let me get this straight. You had no problems with Hillary running the foundation (al-be-it indiredctly) while she was Secretary of State and other department employees directly running it, but the Trump family cannot do so? And you had no problem with the Clinton family running the foundation if Hillary were elected, but you have a problem it the Trump family runs his businesses? Oh, and the last I heard, Trump was not taking bribes from foreign governments/foreign government employees? That would not be a bit partisan on your part, would it?

    You don't have it straight. This thread is not about the Clintons, no matter how much you try to make it so. You want to examine that issue, please start another thread: I'm not interested in discussing it here. I think the actual topic of this thread is worthwhile, and if you're unable to address it, then there's no point in continuing to reply to you.

    This thread is about Trump. You have yet to make any cogent argument relating to the clear conflict of interest entailed in his failure to set up a true blind trust. Instead you continue to indulge your obsession with the Clintons.

    This isn't a game. Your lame jibes aren't important. This has to do with the future of the United States, and whether the it will have a president who is focussed on what is best for the country and not distracted by his business operations. Apparently you don't care that Trump will be trying to be both the chief executive of the United States while still having business interests in the US as well as in several foreign countries. Are you so blinded by your adulation for the man that you're unable to comprehend why sensible people are concerned about this situation?

    But you had no objection to Hillary doing exactly the same thing. So you are objecting to only what teh Republicans do and allow the democrat to do as they please. I got it loud and clear.

    At this point in time I am not too concerned about Trump and conflict of interest. I am sure the Democrats and press will overly scrutinize all family business dealings.

    That's funny since all the Reich-wing could talk about this campaign season was Clinton's alleged conflict of interest with the State Department and the Clinton Foundation. Suddenly conflicts of interest real or otherwise seem to be very uninteresting. Hum? I wonder why?

    I suppose deficits and the debt doesn't matter anymore either. I'm pretty sure transparency isn't a concern anymore with you guys. All those things that mattered just a week or two ago suddenly mean nothing. Hum?

    Trump: If you are the president, you can't have conflicts of interest.

    Nixon: If the president does it, it is legal.

    We've seen this movie before.

    You didn't appear concerned of HRC's conflict of interest as Secretary of State - why the concern now? As I stated in my post - I have complete faith in the Democrat's and the media's ability to over scrutinize all Trump family business dealings from this point forward. They have certainly not given me any indication they view their task as watchdog any differently than Republicans and Fox News with Obama and HRC.

    Because as it was proven, they didn't exist. None were ever found. Face it! It was total bullshit start to finish. Just admit it.

    Has the PreCrime Bureau issued a Minority Report on Trump. What are the precogs? Really I think the Democrats best course of action is to be patient and not waste their energy attacking Trump for imaginary crimes that haven't yet been committed. Wait for him to do something of which there is a legitimate beef. They all do Republican and Democrat Presidents alike. Crying Wolf now just weakens your impact later.

    Except that they have not yet ruled or even finished their investigations. This is more of your "Zimmerman is guilty", "hands up don't shoot", etc.

    Not just an everyday Goldman Sachs greedhead, though. Mnuchin enjoyed some very fat profits from his involvement in foreclosing on thousands and thousands of homes. " Wilbur Ross and Steve Mnuchin—Profiteers of the Great Foreclosure Machine—Go to Washington" | The Nation

    So he followed the rules and made a profit. But somehow you think that is greed? Meanwhile, Hillary broke the rules and profited from it, but you preferred her lies. Yep, I read it loud and clear!

    The election was November 8, today is December 1. Another milestone has been reached. Joe's intensive 3 week course is finally over. While many of us may have not passed I think we all at least deserve certificates of attendance.

    So, how long do you think your bleating about "Hillary" will make you feel better about Donald Trump contemptuously ignoring all the things he said during his campaign, as he installs Wall Street elites and Washington insiders in positions of power and they get busy screwing over the working people of the United States? Are you still going to be hoarsely shouting "Crooked Hillary!" at the top of your lungs in a year? Two years? Do you think you can keep it up for four years of Donald Trump crapping all over the Constitution? Good luck with that.
