Responding by reflecting is not acknowledging the subject at hand: Trump corruption.

Stay focused little Nico-T
The question would be...who cares if he was part of building a hotel and paid with cash because that's the only thing the locals in that Arab country would take?

Does that story of what a businessman did (which most people do when you try to negotiate a better price...you pay in cash) have ANYTHING to do with the U.S. economy, jobs, trade, etc.?

Nope.

Didn't see the media doing ANY backstories on Pres. Obama did we? Only "inspirational" ones because he was baby-Jesus.

But Bush? Oh yeah. He liked to snort cocaine as a young man. OMG!!!
He is a reformed alcoholic! No way!
He owned a baseball team. Fuck...that makes him "Hitler"!

All I'm saying is that the media breathlessly reports "news" that isn't news and does so selectively.

For Pres. Obama...they brushed aside anything that he did in his younger days. And I think that is correct. It doesn't matter if Obama smoked pot or did coke as a young man. That's natural for people to sew their wild oats and had nothing to do with him being President as a mature adult.

BUT...Rachel Maddow didn't ever investigate some of the things that Obama did as a politician in Chicago and his ties to political radical extremists.
ANd personally I never cared about that anyway.

It was a non-story. And had nothing to do with anything. Who President Obama hung around with and what he believes IS relevant...but not a "news story".

And neither is Trump dealing with Arab countries and using cash to get things done on a business project.

Now IF he takes cash from the U.S. govt. and uses it to pay off a hostile country...as Pres. Obama did...then THAT is a news story

It affects all of us.
