Clinton v Trump - The Stretch Run Thread

The facts are probably true, the editorializing is probably not.

Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer.

He also was a vet and a governor. But his time as governor should have tipped people off, because the exact weaknesses he had as governor crippled his Presidency.

Huffpo has all the Trump&Russia-trails in one article. The latest one hit the press yeaterday, Monday 31 Oct.
In short: economic ties between Trump and Russia ( in real estate) are very likely. And rather problematic if Trump would be elected. FBI is investigating, contrary to denials from the Trump camp. No smoking gun has yet been found.

My previous link saying that the Trump campaign was panicked over these new finds is wrong, as adaher said.

There are tons of economic ties between Clinton and the Arab oil states too. I don’t believe Trump and Clinton are equivalent, Clinton is clearly better, but on this particular issue they are actually the same. Actually, I’d give the edge to Trump on that one, since Trump didn’t get rich off Russia, he just has investments. Clinton is very dependent on the oil monarchies for income.

Direct ties between Clinton and ‘arab oil states’ - or donations from same to the ‘Clinton Foundation’ ?

One of these things is not like the other.

Some Russian says that Trump sold some condos.
Trump says his only business with Russia was possibly selling some condos.
What’s the problem? I despise Trump and I think him being elected would be a disaster, but I don’t see anything particularly nefarious about the condos.

It does strike me that a “blind trust” that is being run by his children is anything but blind.

Yeah. I want to see some cites about the “tons of economic ties” and income dependencies.

Let’s wait for the FBI to finish THAT investigation first.

Does Qatar own Goldman Sachs?

I might not make it, being in my late youth. Doctor says I most likely only have about thirty to forty years more to live.

Good job trying to wiggle out of it. Won’t work.

I’m not about to get into an argument over the distinction between the Clinton Foundation and the Clintons. IMO, there is none. It’s a slush fund for they and their friends’ benefit.

90% of the money is spent on charity, higher than most charities.

Yeah sure, but the Clintons are friends with all those Africans…so SLUSH FUND!

If you don’t want to get proven wrong, then don’t bring it up in the first place.

Cite that there is an active investigation please.

I think you’ve confused the ‘Trump Foundation’ here.

There is zero evidence that the Clinton Foundation is anything other than what it purports to be.

She most certainly does get a bum rap, because the RW media circulates lies about her nonstop. She didn’t steal the primary. She didn’t kill Vince Foster. She didn’t use her foundation for personal gain.

Well, if one person’s opinion matches yours, it’s surely correct.
