Conservatives have been whining that Obama hasn't been transparent enough....now they offer up a candidate who has so many secrets, but now transparency doesn't matter? The fact that he won't release his tax returns is not an issue for the Trumpfers.
Republicans are making much todo over the Clinton Foundation because they think that preferential treatment could be gained from Clinton (when she is elected President)...while they dismiss the more horrible probability that China could own the United States if Trump (if elected, God Forbid) files bankruptcy in order not to pay them back!
Trump has been dissing China and Goldman Sachs....as it turns out, he is heavily indebted to both.
Watch as Republican/conservatives spin all kinds of excuses on this one.
An investigation into the real estate holdings of Donald J. Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, found complex partnerships and debts of at least double the amount to be gleaned from public filings he has made amid his campaign.
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.
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.
