Discussion of the man Donald Trump

[Dante]

It's amazing how little people actually know about the man. It's even more amazing that for some people it doesn't matter what they know about the man. Why is that? What could it be? A cult of personality?

You be the judge, and remember what Forum we are in : Community: General Discussion: "Talk about anything...none of it matters here."

7. Loyalty has never been his strong suit. Here’s the story of how Trump dumped his partner in the Commodore Hotel, which he transformed into the Grand Hyatt.

Trump’s first major real-estate coup in New York was the acquisitionof the Commodore Hotel, which would become the Grand Hyatt. This deal,secured with a controversial tax abatement from the city, made Trump’sreputation. His partner at the time was the well-respected Pritzkerfamily of Chicago, who owned the Hyatt chain. ​

​

Their contract was specific: Trump and Jay Pritzker agreed that if there were any sticking points they would have a ten-day period to arbitrate their differences. At one point, they had a minor disagreement.​

​

“Jay Pritzker was leaving for a trip to Nepal, where he was to be incommunicado,” a lawyer for the Pritzker family told me. “Donald waited until Jay was in the airplane before he called him. Naturally, Jay couldn’t call him back. He was on a mountain in Nepal. ​

​

Later,Donald kept saying, ‘I tried to call you. I gave you the ten days. But you were in Nepal.’ It was outrageous. Pritzker was his partner, not his enemy! This is how he acted on his first important deal.” ​

​

Trump later even reported the incident in his book.​

There is so much information available on Trump that mental health professionals can label him a psychopath without having to meet him in person!

He's the perfect goatfk for America at the most important time for China's and the Brics' rise to world supremacy!

Already America's trading partners are seeking out new and more fair partners. What the fk could he be thinking??

It's amazing that after the last eight years of poking and prodding DJT in every possible orifice, you think there is something that isn't known about him. LMAO. No other person on the face of the earth has been investigated to the extent that he has. LMAO, this thread is ridiculous.

I believe the Clintons meet the bar

Ridiculous? Please. Donald Trump has always pestered the media to put him in print and more. That was the joke on NYC. He was always available and he actually pretended to be other people speaking about himself -- Donald Trump.

After the Gold Rush​

Unfortunately for Donald and Ivana Trump, all that glittered wasn’t gold. But the reign of New York’s self-created imperial couple isn’t over yet. Donald’s Midas touch may be tarnished, but the banks are still throwing money at him, while Ivana is busy brokering a future of her own. Marie Brenner reports on how the Trumps are still going for it all.

Donald Trump Accused of Pretending to Be His Own Spokesman

It's amazing that after the last eight years of poking and prodding DJT in every possible orifice, you think there is something that isn't known about him. LMAO. No other person on the face of the earth has been investigated to the extent that he has. LMAO, this thread is ridiculous.

The fact is indisputable: John Miller, Mr Baron

Donald Trump denies posing as his own spokesperson​

What's amazing is how he admitted it was he, then insisted it was not him, then...

"Can people trust, fully trust a convicted felon?"

Ridiculous? Please

Not even close. Democrats don't do investigations on democrats. LOL, they aren't particularly effective at investigating republicans either. And "ridiculous" is absolutely appropriate for this thread.

The reason my friend why Trump can be psychoanalyzed by professionals without seeing him in person!

As I just suggested, he's perfect for the present as China rises to the top of the pecking order, along with Russia and the Brics.

America absolutely must defeat Russia!

Sessions Letter Shows DOJ Acted on Trump’s Authoritarian Demand to Investigate Clinton​

American Oversight has uncovered the signed directive from Jeff Sessions instructing a federal prosecutor to carry out Trump’s authoritarian demand to investigate Hillary Clinton

Surprise, Surprise: The DOJ’s Hillary Clinton Investigation Has Been a Bust​

After more than two years, an inquiry into the Clinton Foundation and Clinton’s tenure at State is nearly done—and there’s reportedly absolutely nothing to show for it.

Trump Justice Department kept Clinton Foundation case open until last days of presidency: report​

The Arkansas Project was a series of investigative press reports, funded primarily by conservative businessman Richard Mellon Scaife, that focused on criticism of then-President Bill Clinton and his administration. Scaife spent nearly $2 million on the project.[1]

The investigations included the investigation of the 1970s real estate investment that Bill and Hillary Clinton had made in a development known as Whitewater, re-opening of allegations that then Governor Bill Clinton had sexually harassed an Arkansas state employee, and a reexamination of the death of White House aide Vincent Foster which multiple official investigations had found to be a suicide.

"We have an old custom here at Mar-a-Lago,” Donald Trump was saying one night at dinner in his 118-room winter palace in Palm Beach. “Our custom is to go around the table after dinner and introduce ourselves to each other.” Trump had seemed fidgety that night, understandably eager to move the dinner party along so that he could go to bed.

“Old custom? He’s only had Mrs. Post’s house a few months. Really! I’m going home,” one Palm Beach resident whispered to his date.

“Oh, stay,” she said. “It will be so amusing.”

...

It was spring, four years ago. Donald and Ivana Trump were seated at opposite ends of their long Sheraton table in Mrs. Marjorie Merriweather Post’s former dining room. They were posed in imperial style, as if they were a king and queen. They were at the height of their ride, and it was plenty glorious. Trump was seen on the news shows offering his services to negotiate with the Russians. There was talk that he might make a run for president. Ivana had had so much publicity that she now offered interviewers a press kit of flattering clips. Anything seemed possible, the Trumps had grown to such stature in the golden city of New York.

Did you find those 30K deleted emails? Clinton hasn't begun to face an investigation...YET.

So what? So did Ted Turner in the late 70s and early 80s. Don't you remember Dennis Rodman doing Obama's negotiations with N. Korea. Get a life.

5. He has a long history with undocumented immigrants, whom he recently smeared as “rapists.” When Brenner was reporting the story, Trump was in the middle of a lawsuit about his alleged hiring of undocumented immigrants from Poland, who said they were paid four dollars an hour.

I was hoping you would address my suggestion that America's military (the Pentagon) will never allow Trump to interfere in its war against Russia.

It looked like a sure thing that he would try, but that is less certain lately. Trump has likely taken the hint that the war is a lot more important to the establishment than his life.

Americans are still not accepting the real reason for the proxy war in the Ukraine, even though there's truck loads of evidence on US aggression.

The histories will show that the decline of America accelerated with the Trump presidencies.
