Use the same logic, and ask yourself why the Repubs have gone after Hillery multiple times on the same non-scandals (Benghazi, Email, etc.) and keep coming up blank, even when the investigators are led by a motivated, republican-friendly foe of the Clintons.

If there was something to any of it, they would have already nailed Hillary to the wall!

Unlike the Republicans, the Dems will let the law take it's natural course. Their focus is not "bring Trump down", it's "do the job they were elected to do. In that, they'll get out of the way and let justice take it's course, rather than irrespsonibly waste taxpayer money.

Hate Hillary or don't, that's your choice, but how can you support the constant choice of the RNC to put party in front of country to remove this foe that they are so afraid of?
You could have at least provided vomit bags with that line.

There's corruption down to the core in DC, if Hillary was an "R" she would've been indicted imho.

All of these years even before Trump decided to run if some tax law(s) was broken one would think that a high profiled man like Trump would have already received much coverage of such very long ago. I lived pretty much right across the river from NYC (till 4 plus years ago) so with the NY based media even I wouldn't have missed something like that.

I already voted in this election as a mail-in ballot for Trump of course.
I first heard of Trump stiffing contractors about 1989. I was amazed that it wasn't brought up openly until recently. I didn't know anyone in South Jersey who went to his casinos, for that reason.

How do you know the IRS hasn't found violations?

Let me premise and say that I don't think Trump is perfect.

To the bolded: Now maybe there's good reasons, maybe not.

Ahhh.

So RCP, a pollster aggregator, and presumably unbiased, is now creating anti-Trump stories.

So much for the often RCP quoted average that Hillary is going to win the election.

It's biased too.

[quote=beb0p;45707772]You don't seem to be aware that the federal government had gone after Trump many times already.

The earliest case we know of is the US Dept of Justice suing Trump for Anti-trust violation in 1988. Trump lost the case and had to pay $750,000 in penalty and fines.

Exactly, and he hasnt been convicted of any wrong doings. Where did that 750000 go? Was this an out of court settlement?
People Pay fines all the time to IRS, like for not Having ACA.

Because the way the media goes after Republicans with such highly ethical vengence, it would have been published long time ago.

Your assuming the information would be publicly available. I haven't checked but I'm not sure that every time the IRS fines or penalizes a person or organization it is made available.

I had a contractor from Pitman doing work for me in Cherry Hill. I told him that I appreciated him scheduling me so quickly. He told me that things had been slow & I reminded him that Trump kept putting out the word that he was looking for people.

That's when my contractor told me about the guys that he knew, who were good workers & good contractors who had been stiffed. He told me that he & his wife had discussed the topic & he decided that he'd take a shift at a local factory if it stayed slow & pick up contracting work on his days off before he'd roll the dice on Trump. Over the next several years I heard more stories about Trump stiffing people. Are you trying to tell me that every small contractor in South Jersey was bad? Those are the people that Trump stiffed. . .the little guys. . .the ones who got stiffed were the guys who couldn't afford to go up against Trump's army of lawyers.

Thats laughable. I am not assuming anything. How did the NYT get his taxes the other day. This admin will put out any data they can to smear him. His taxes were mailed to the NYT by someone at the IRS. think about that. Using the IRS AS a political tool. Dont be so naive.
