New York AG Targeting Trump Foundation is Clinton Donor | LifeZette
The guy is a Democratic politician, why would he donate money to the Republicans? Moreover, failing to donate to Republicans isn't evidence that the investigation of the Trump Foundation is unwarranted. Failing to investigate, when there have been numerous news reports of shady dealings, would be failing to perform his duties.

Let's face it, Trump supporters think Trump and his organizations should get a pass on criminal activities -- all while claiming the other side gets special treatment -- which it doesn't.

The democrats are in full panic mode as Hillary's campaign goes down in flames.
I must say that I expected HRC's campaign to fall off after the debates. But her health, deplorable attacks on tens of millions of Americans, and constant lying have brought its fall about even sooner.

Oh, that's rich.

Where to begin?

Perhaps we should talk the way Trump bad mouths Americans with Hispanic heritage including a Judge, no less.

Or perhaps we should talk about his attacks on those of the Muslim faith.

What about the unkind comments about women?

As to lying, was this sarcasm? Several fact checkers have documented that 75% of what he says is either mostly untrue or complete lies.

I would love to see the crawl at the bottom of the screen during the debates focus on truth.

The timing on this couldn't have anything to do with the elections, could it?
Nah.

Probably. When Trump uses his "charitable" foundation to bribe politicians and pay for paintings, sounds like it's worth looking into.

..."comments Trump made at a rally last January in Iowa, in which he boasted of his donations to politicians: “ I gotta give to them. ... Because when I want something, I get it. When I call, they kiss my ass.”

This should rightfully be a campaign issue.

And this is spoken by someone more transparent than Trump who released his tax returns under audit!

Hopefully the New York AG will be investigated by the feds for bringing this phony probe for retaliation against Trump because he reported the AG for extorting the Trump family.
