that is a total insult to many Republicans and shows how little you understand bankruptcy. You don't have to agree with what he has or hasn't done, but you should understand bankruptcy before spouting off!!!! As for the rest of what you are saying, this is a matter on opinion: we each have ours, but to show true objectiveness one needs to clarify their statements with "my opinion" not trying to make others think this is fact.

You know, undoubtedly, people occasionally make some mistakes and have to declare bankruptcy. But Trump has declared bankruptcy SIX times. At what point do you start to wonder if maybe this guy just might not be the business genius he claims to be?

Or is the answer to that never? Is party over country always going to take precedence?

you can talk all you want about those who didn't get paid, whether due to bankruptcy or because some have said they got stiffed. Again you are showing your lack of understanding: do you have any idea or could you even guess how many millions of people he has hired in his adult life? I know I certainly can't even imagine how many. As for importing a wife, what a childish and uninformed statement that is: do some research for heavens sake!!!!

I found this to be an interesting endorsement of Hillary Rodham Clinton:


https://www.bloomberg.com/view/artic...f-endorses-her


Leading sentence:


"Twenty years ago Michael Chertoff was near the top of the Clintons' enemy list. He was the lead Republican counsel on the Senate Whitewater Committee, one of the first of many Congressional investigations into Hillary Clinton."

Right. Exactly. Kind of like how Donald Trump used to be a perfectly good guy to hang around. Until he decided to run for president and say things that made certain people uncomfortable. Interesting how Hillary and Bill didn't think Donald Trump was so deplorable and such a racist when they were at his wedding back in 2005. Who else was at Donald Trump's wedding?

Liberals.
If it weren't for double standards they'd have no standards at all.

And you don't understand any of them. Only the sound bite.
  • Trump Airlines for example was already out of business as it was the Eastern Airlines Shuttle from the failed Eastern Airlines.
  • Trump bought it and kept it going and everyone kept their job while every one who worked for Eastern lost there jobs.
  • Trump could not longer pay the huge debt on the airline due to the Bush caused recession in the eary 90s. His "bankruptcy" was to restructure the debt so that those employees could keep working. It was sold off. Trump lost his entire investment.
So you guys who go on with this kind of nonsense really have no idea what you are talking about all while holding a double standard for Trump vs the bought & paid for idiots in the Bush/Clinton families that you support.

That said, I really don't like the idea that just because their father/husband is a conservative politician means that the rest of the family follows suit. They're adults. I mean, look at Ivanka Trump - there's no way she believes a fraction of what her dad believes but is stuck shilling for him. How many political spouses and kids are in the same boat?

I, for one, am happy that George W. Bush is spending his retirement painting dogs. He seems happy.

Yes, if we would be so lucky if Obummer spends his retirement painting cats.

Please provide proof of Trump hiring MILLIONS of people (in the United States of America) in his lifetime. I'll wait.

Barbara Bush attends Clinton fundraiser: report
Yeah, I'm still supporting Trump. As a female, I think for myself and am making my decision based on the issues: the economy, jobs, security and healthcare. I realize that some go kind of crazy over "name recognition" and just being a follower is much easier than thinking for one's self..........

No one is surprised when someone that is a part of the establishment endorses Hillary, Hillary is the establishment candidate. So, Barbara and Huma are both "with her". Yuck!
