    Clinton may be sleaze when it comes to business cover ups. Donald is right there with her.
    I was intrigued by Trash when he 1st started running. Hearing the details of Trump University and now his ongoing dalliances with Fat Bas ....
    Pretty sure the Clinton attack ads are gonna be featuring some of this:

    Trump Casinos’ Tax Debt Was $30 Million. Then Chris Christie Took Office.

    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politi...cid=spartandhp

    Some cliffs: Trash spouts about how "we" (US taxpayers) are getting ripped by Mexico and China.
    How did the taxpayers of New Jersey fair with Trash and the 30 million his casinos owed?

    But the year after Governor Christie, a Republican, took office, the tone of the litigation shifted. The state entertained settlement offers. And in December 2011, after six years in court, the state agreed to accept just $5 million, roughly 17 cents on the dollar of what auditors said the casinos owed.

    The Times discovered the agreement during a review of the thousands of do ents filed in the bankruptcies of Mr. Trump’s casinos. The taxes went unpaid from 2002 through 2006, during which time Mr. Trump was leading the company as chairman and, until 2005, as its chief executive. He reaped millions of dollars in fees and bonuses from the company, even as it underperformed compe ors, lost money every year and saw its stock collapse.

    After the Trump casinos filed for bankruptcy protection in 2004 for the third time, state officials noticed the company had not been filling out the required schedule for the minimum tax assessment. The Trump casinos had reported losing money and paid a little more than $600,000 in state income taxes in 2002, and only $1,500 in 2003. State auditors determined the Trump casinos should have paid $8.8 million in alternative minimum taxes for those two years, according to court records.
    No wonder Wall St Fat Boy Bridge Closer is so pro-Trash, he probably expects to get a top post in Trash's cabinet, like Atty General, or head of FBI, SEC, etc.

    Warning of election fraud, Trump sparks fear that his backers may intimidate minority voters

    In
    remarks with strong racial overtones, Donald Trump told a mainly white rural crowd in Pennsylvania on Friday that vote fraud could cheat him out of victory and vowed to dispatch police who support him to monitor polls in “certain parts” of the state.


    We’re going to have unbelievable turnout, but we don’t want to see people voting five times, folks,” the Republican presidential nominee said at a rally in Altoona, Pa.


    After months of racially charged violence between Trump supporters and protesters at his rallies, the comments raised the specter of confrontations on election day in precincts with many minority voters.


    Trump, who previously suggested the Nov. 8 election would be rigged for Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, said he’d “heard some stories about certain parts of the state, and we have to be very careful.”

    “certain parts” of the state.“ Like BLUE Pittsburgh and Philadelphia?

    Wow. Talk about inciting a climate of fear/hate. That right there goes farther than anything he has said to date.

    He has said some stupid so far, but this, in my mind is the most irresponsible, because I think he is serious about this.

    Trash: "I’m fighting for peaceful regime change"

    At his ‘law and order’ speech in Wisconsin, Donald Trump – using authoritarian language - said he and his supporters are fighting for a ‘peaceful regime change’ here in America.

    As long as he is reading from a teleprompter.

    ING HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    I almost feel guilty about making fun of conservidiots for that, but after years of rolling my eyes at the "obama teleprompter" meme, it is just too hillaryous to pass up.

    After years of courting White Nationalists and Isolationists with words but less so with actions, the Republican Party is now reaping the consequences as those people have decided to look for someone they have confidence will actually do something about the woes they've been told to be angry about.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans Political Correctness is one of the biggest dangers facing our country, so they've chosen the least "politically correct" candidate to represent them.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans to fear and resent immigrants, so they've chosen the candidate who sounds like he will be the toughest on immigration.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans to fear Muslims, so they've chosen the candidate who sounds like he will be the toughest on Muslims.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans that the Democrats are coming for their guns, so they've chosen the candidate that seems likely to be the toughest against gun legislation.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans that government is bad, so they've chosen the candidate that is least associated with government.

    They've been told by mainstream Republicans that intellectualism, rationalism and compromise are signs of weakness, so they've chosen the candidate that displays the least of these characteristics.

    This is not some unexpected uprising of fringe right wing extremists. This is the direct result of conservative politicians coddling propaganda channels that stoking the fears, paranoia, and tribalism of poor and unintelligent white people. None of them seemed to have any problem with the amount of air time the likes of Mic e Malkin or Ann Coulter or, , Donald Trump himself get on FOX News saying the very things they cringe at when Trump says them today, all while their while their limp- , braindead hosts smiled and nodded along.



    (And yes, the same thing could happen to Democrats.)

    The Repugs, plus their evangelical accomplices, have been saying LGBT, abortion, god, guns, Mexicans, knitters, uppity women, Muslims, taxes, unions, public schools, the debt, the deficit, teachers, regulations are the biggest problems facing America, which is perfect deflection away from the real causes of why white people are poor, sick, pissed off, losing wealth and economic security by the year.

    Reports are that Trump will be UNLEASHED in the debates, which tells me he has conceeded defeat on debating Hillary on policies and anything to do with actual politics.

    Instead he'll go on an insult barrage for however long the debates are for. Also reports that he will abandon the telePrompter and just do what he did in the primaries.

    I see nothing but white flags waving.

    What to expect from the new Team Trump

    from the Washington Post’s reporting:

    While Trump respects [campaign chairman Paul] Manafort, the aides said, he has grown to feel “boxed in” and “controlled” by people who barely know him. Moving forward, he plans to focus intensely on rousing his voters at rallies and through media appearances.

    Trump’s turn away from Manafort is in part a reversion to how he ran his campaign in the primary with then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. Lewandowski’s mantra was “let Trump be Trump” and Trump wants to get back to that type of campaign culture, the aides said.

    That’s right, as far as the Republican nominee is concerned, Americans have seen a constrainedversion of Donald J. Trump in recent months. This has been the GOP candidate at his most guarded.


    In other words, with his new team in place, Trump intends to stop pulling his punches and start beingeven more outlandish in the presidential campaign’s final 12 weeks.

    It’s not quite an acceptance of defeat, but it’s something similar: a decision to stop caring what might appeal to a broad national audience and start doing what makes the candidate feel good.

    And to that end, Trump has chosen a CEO who will encourage him to do precisely what he wants to do anyway. The New York Timesreport added:

    Mr. Bannon has no experience with political campaigns, but he represents the type of bare-knuckled fighter that the candidate had in Corey Lewandowski, his combative former campaign manager, who was fired on June 20.


    Mr. Bannon has been a supporter of Mr. Trump’s pugilistic instincts, which the candidate has made clear in interviews he is uncertain about suppressing.

    He is also deeply mistrustful of the political establishment, and his website has often been critical of Speaker Paul D. Ryan and Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader.

    They were going through new sets of things Trump will now do on CNN. A supposed source is saying that he will no longer use a prompter and that he will do things his way now. No more will he try to curtail himself to appease the GOP. Might even unendorse Paul Ryan because when he did, he did under pressure.

    Who knows what Trump is going to do next. We might hear Mitch Mcconnel and Ryan and all the rest of the establishment step away from Trump finally.

    That Breitbart guy who's running things now has attacked Ryan in the past so things will get interesting here.

    Cluster abound.

    It’s NOT the economy, stupid! New study shows what’s really rallying Trump supporters

    Why are blue-collar whites angry?

    The media have an answer for that too — essentially that these folks have been the primary casualties of globalization and immigration, Trump’s twin bugaboos. But a recent paper by Gallup senior economist Johnathan Rothwell challenges this assumption.

    From Rothwell’s data,

    those who view Trump most favorably were not particularly battered by globalization or immigration. In fact, they were surprisingly well-off financially

    — better off than those who supported Trump’s Republican rivals. Maybe that is why Trump hasn’t really talked much about his economic plan. He knows it doesn’t matter much to his base.


    What Rothwell discovered is that those who view Trump favorably

    are racially isolated as well as isolated from immigrants.

    Their grievances aren’t so much economic or even sociological as psychological.

    These older whites are a group in despair — shrouded by a cloud of pessimism, loss and disempowerment,

    as Rothwell describes the nationalist tide in other countries similar to the one that is now bearing Trump.


    And they are angry about it — even hateful about it. You don’t hear a lot in the media about the non-economic subtext of this anger because that would require reporters to criticize ordinary Americans, not just Trump — though

    Trump can be hateful precisely because so many of his supporters are hateful, whether you think that hate is warranted or not.

    It is, however, just to reiterate the point,

    not warranted by financial difficulties.

    These folks are

    angry about their condition in the society, about a lack of hopefulness in the future. They want scapegoats. And they want the liberty to scald those scapegoats with impunity.

    http://www.rawstory.com/2016/08/its-...e+Raw+Story%29

    And how do these conned, ignorant, hate-filled Trash supporters think Trash is going to improve "
    their condition in the society, about a lack of hopefulness in the future" ?

    Middle East takes note of Trump’s conspiracy theories

    In the New York Times yesterday, there was an interesting piece from Michael Wahid Hanna, a senior fellow at the Century Foundation and at the Center on Law and Security at N.Y.U.’s School of Law, and Daniel Benaim, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. They made the point that when the Republican presidential hopeful shares one of his many conspiracy theories – including his recent assertion that President Obama and Hillary Clinton are the original “founders” of ISIS – Americans aren’t the only folks who notice.

    Public opinion has a profound impact on American interests in the Middle East and around the world.

    The United States’ military strategy against the Islamic State depends on mobilizing local actors to lead the fight on the ground. Imagine how much harder that is when people have been led to believe that President Obama created the group.

    Or think of the added danger to American troops in Iraq, where Shiite militant groups who are fighting the Islamic State remain deeply wary of the United States military.


    Just this weekend, Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, publicly endorsed Mr. Trump’s remarks:

    “This is an American presidential candidate. This was spoken on behalf of the Republican Party. He has data and do ents.”

    I can think of a few GOP lawmakers who likely winced after seeing that “spoken on behalf of the Republican Party” comment.


    The point, of course, is that the American mainstream may know not to take conspiracy theories from the likes of Bachmann, Gohmert, and Trump seriously, but many abroad have no similar understanding.
    http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-s...d=sm_fb_maddow

    iow, Trash's "loose lips", like all Repugs with their bull invasions, bombings, slaughters, destruction of Muslim countries, is making America LESS SAFE.

    Former Breitbart News Spokesman Rails Against New Trump CEO: A "Pathological Liar"

    Kurt Bardella: Campaign Is About To Become More "Dangerous," "Combative," And "Divisive"




    Former Breitbart News spokesman Kurt Bardella says his old boss Stephen Bannon, who yesterday took a leave of absence from the right-wing news site to serve as chief executive of Donald Trump's presidential campaign, is a “pathological liar” whose hiring signals a “dangerous" and “combative” turn for the campaign.

    Bardella served as a spokesman for Breitbart News from 2013 to early 2016. He cut ties after Breitbart reporter Mic e Fields accused then-Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski of grabbing her arm.

    He said then he objected to Breitbart’s treatment of Fields, whose accounts of the incident were questioned by Breitbart News LLC CEO Bannon. She eventually left the website.


    “It signals a dangerous and, even more so, combative and divisive turn,” Bardella told Media Matters about the hiring of Bannon by Trump.

    “It’s an indication that this campaign, as negative as it has been, is going to be even more so going forward.

    If the media thought that their relationship with the Trump campaign was challenging before this, it’s going to be 10 times worse now."


    Indeed, Breitbart News' editorial stance has been defined by its bigotry and sycophantic coverage of Donald Trump.


    Bardella also described Bannon as a “pathological liar who has a temperament that governs by bullying and intimidation and functions very much like a dictator at Breitbart.”


    He said voters should take note of what this says about Trump’s judgement and approach as a leader.

    “For those who didn’t enjoy working for Corey Lewandowski because of his temperament, Stephen Bannon makes Corey look like a golden doodle."

    goddam, y'alls right wing hate media, like Fox, Breitbart, Limpballs, etc, etc, are polluted with trashy people

    You Want to Know How Bleak Donald Trump's Chances Are? Take a Look at This


    New aggregate polling shows a Clinton lead in key battleground states.



    There are several ways to look at this.

    • New Hampshire is the state that currently gives Clinton the victory, and she’s winning it by a comfy six points.
    • If Clinton were to win every state that Donald Trump currently leads in by that same 6-point margin, the electoral score would end up 393-145. And if you think that winning South Carolina or Missouri seems kinda crazy, why would Trump winning New Hampshire or Virginia seem more plausible? Personally, neither seem plausible to me. The remaining battlegrounds are all in that 4-point-margin area. But then again, isn’t Trump doing everything possible to gift Clinton more battlegrounds? Georgia not good enough? Here, let me throw in South Carolina as a sweetener! Still not satisfied, how about Utah? Here, have a Texas!
    • Clinton has built quite an electoral cushion. Nevada will go blue, I guarantee it. Polls always underrepresent Democrats (and in particular, Latinos, in the state). But beyond that, there are a lot of supposed battleground states safely in the blue column. And yet where is Trump? He certainly isn’t advertising (not that it would matter). Instead, he’s spending valuable campaign time in places like Connecticut and Maine (where at best he’d get zero and one electoral votes, respectively), and he’s spending his days twitterstorming against the media, fellow Republicans, and Gold Star families. Meanwhile, don’t look for campaign field offices in battleground states. They don’t exist.
    • It’s not just that Trump is losing by big margins in those battleground states—he can’t even break 40 percent in most of them. His numbers, per the aggregate: Colorado, 37, Florida 43, Iowa 37, Michigan 34, New Hampshire 36, North Carolina 41, Ohio 42, Virginia 38, and Wisconsin 36. In other words, he’s barely getting the support of one-third of voters, with little effort to try and expand beyond the Trumpian dead-ender base.
    • The trendlines in most of those states remain in our favor. There isn’t a state in which Trump is making up ground. Quite the opposite, in fact.
    • Funny thing is, the aggregate includes ty or unknown pollsters that mitigate Trump’s number. For example, in Virginia, the latest polls are WaPo: Clinton +8, Marist: Clinton +13, CBS/YouGov: Clinton +13, and … RABA Research, Trump +4. What the is “RABA Research”? Who knows! But somehow, all that polling comes out to Clinton +7.

    Dana Loesch: Trump’s New Campaign Chief Is ‘One of the Worst People on God’s Green Earth’




    “I will say that one of the worst, most acious years of my entire life involved this individual. And I have to question whether or not the campaign is sincere about winning a victory against Hillary Clinton by ins uting someone like this as the CEO of the campaign,”

    btw, in addition to the new bags just hired by Trash, bag/Nixon's-dirty-trickster/sexual predator Roger Ailes is advising Trash.

    Mr. Trump can keep a secret when he wants to. For example, you will never hear him say a word about what's in his tax returns.

    He'll say ANYTHING that he thinks will con, sucker his Trash supporters, flatter himself, or trash his opponents.

    He's admitted that Bishop Gekko lost because BG published his tax returns (only 3 years, hiding his tax evasion crimes in earlier years)
