Trump - Make America Great Again!

[Superman]

one accumulated her wealth at the expense of taxpayers.

 

[Tim Steelersfan]

Good news for Trump, terrible news for the country.

But in the end, it won't matter. The Dems will close ranks with Obama & Sanders rallying around Clinton. Independents will be at their senses and vote for the (much) lesser of two evils. Game, set, match. America (and the world) will be saved from a true menace. Our kids and grandkids will look back to this election and will be aghast that Trump was the GOP candidate that made it this far. There will be a lot of explaining to do by those that supported the megalomaniac pinhead.

These predictions sound much like your predictions did at the beginning of the primary cycle.

You were 100% wrong then.

I have zero confidence in your ability to predict much of anything.

Predictions...where are they now?

TRUMP WILL NEVER GET 1237 DELEGATES!


HISTORY! Trump Shatters Republican Primary Vote Record by 1.4 Million Votes

Trump has 1,536 delegates and counting.

It has been reported that 1 in 4 sanders supporters will NEVER vote for Clinton.

I ain't buying it.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

A large % of them hate Hillary. Hate her. A large % have said they will never vote for Hillary and will either not vote or will vote for Trump.

All that equals good news for Trump.

In the end, members of the Gimme Free **** Party remain fairly loyal in order to keep the free **** coming.

 

[ark steel]

I'd like to see both Clinton and Trump lose about 10% of each of those votes with those going to Stein and Johnson respectively. it would be awesome if both main party candidates got less than 40% of the popular vote even. Even if one of them still won the Electoral College, it would send a pretty clear message. Which they would promptly ignore.

Unfortunately, it might generate more calls for the end of the Electoral College, which would be bad if replaced with popular vote totals.

ark thinks dead people shouldnt be allowed to vote.

And if NEITHER reached the required 270 electoral vote threshold - the vote for President will go to the House of Representatives! (GOP has the majority!)

TRUMP WINS!

Alert! Reporters warned to be on the lookout for violent, deranged Bernie bots!


AP warns reporters to be safe after harassment from Sanders fans

The Associated Press is warning its reporters to stay vigilant after several received harassing messages from Bernie Sanders supporters.

Danny Spriggs, the AP's vice president for global security, said some reporters have received angry emails, social media messages and phone calls after the AP declared Hillary Clinton the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

FBI asks to make new secret filing in Clinton email case

In the request, which came as part of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, the Justice Department offered for the FBI to provide “additional details” about how it “conducted a reasonable search for records” as part of the open records case and “determined that there were no records responsive.”

“These details supplement defendant’s showing that it conducted a reasonable search, but cannot be disclosed on the public record without compromising information that the FBI seeks to protect,” the department said in a filing late Monday evening.

The FBI currently has possession of the server Clinton used to run her personal email setup as part of an investigation into whether classified information was mishandled.

In a separate filing Monday, the Justice Department refused to detail the nature of the FBI probe connected to Clinton’s machine, except that it was based on a “security referral” from inspectors general at the State Department and federal intelligence agencies.

“The FBI is not required to identify a particular federal statute that it alleges has been violated in connection with the pending investigation, or the target(s) of the investigation,” in order to keep the information secret, it asserted.

Donald Trump Campaign Demands State Department Release Hillary Clinton’s Trade-Related Emails

"Hillary Clinton's TPP emails should absolutely be released, as her support for TPP threatens to permanently undermine U.S. workers and sovereignty," Stephen Miller, senior policy advisor to the GOP's presumptive nominee, said in a statement to IBT. "Hillary is 100 percent controlled by corporate interests, including foreign corporate interests, and it is essential these emails see the light of day."

The Clintons released 8 years of tax returns from 2007 to 2014. They earned 139 million in those 8 years, mainly from paid speeches
and book royalties. They paid 43 million in Federal taxes and 13 million in state and local taxes (about 46% in taxes) and gave another
15 million to charity. They also run a charitable foundation that takes donations and performs charitable work.

They are well off, but certainly not billionaires. And their efforts pay more than their share of taxes and benefit worthy causes.

If they stayed out of the public and non-profit sectors and pursued the for profit world, they would be a lot more wealthy today.

ftfy

LOL. Clearly, you don't know how much money there is in the "non-profit" world. Why would they deduct the $15m (or whatever part they can deduct) for charitable donations? Why not keep that as taxable income and/or give it to the government to allocate? Surely, the government knows more better. Right?

 

[Superman]

$1.44 in book royalties?
WOW, 21. Their book(s) have outsold yours.

 

[deljzc]

Doing what? What exactly are slick talking, lying cheats good at in the private sector? Chasing ambulances? Being lawyers for the rich/famous at ways to hoodwink the government? Pitchmen for the local gas conglomerate? And those types of lawyers in Arkansas make more than $20 million/year? Really?

I call bullshit....

 

[deljzc]

Oh... and let's be honest. If it wasn't for politics Bill and Hillary would have divorced in 1990 (or earlier), Bill would be with some trophy wife a lot dumber than Malania Trump and Hillary would be out of the closet.

Not sure what her advance on last book was, but she made 5 mil in royalties in 2015.

I think they could have been Corporate lawyers or CEO's, but certainly they could have been talk show hosts or televangelists like the right wing gods do
to make money off "conservative simpletonism".

You can tell a lot about the political parties by what the ex-Presidents do with the rest of their lives.
Republicans: Reagan, Bush & Bush retire to a life of leisure, (W painting doggies) , Democrats: Carter & Clinton found organizations to help solve world problems.

That was all from the publisher's advance - the book sold like ice in the Arctic. Since the book did not even cover the advance, Clinton's earnings are entirely from the advance. She actually earned zero in royalties.

Even at full price, 200,000 in sales would cover just half — $7 million — of Clinton’s advance.

Do you own a hard copy of Hillary Clinton's book Hard Choices? If so, you're in exclusive company. According to data provided to the Post by Nielsen BookScan, a little over 26,000 more copies of the book were sold in its third week -- down almost 46 percent from the week prior, which was down 44 percent from the week before that.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...d-even-faster-in-week-three-than-in-week-two/

She may be a former First Lady, U.S. Senator, and Secretary of State, but that background isn’t really helping Hillary Clinton’s book sales. Her latest book, “Hard Choices,” had a rough first week (85,000 copies sold), followed by a rougher second week (48,000), and an even rougher third week (26,000). Here are 7 books with better Amazon sales rankings than “Hard Choices.”
1) Blood Feud: The Clintons vs. The Obamas (by Ed Klein)
2) 10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse: Lose Up To 15 Pounds In 10 Days! (by JJ Smith
3) Ultimate Sticker Book: Frozen (by Ultimate Sticker Books)
4) The Doctor’s Diet: Dr. Travis Stork’s STAT Program to Help You Lose Weight & Restore Your Health (by Travis Stork)
5) The Great Gatsby (By F. Scott Fitzgerald)
6) First 100 Words (by Roger Priddy)
7) Look And Find Disney Frozen (by Editors of Publications International)

Uhhhh ...

The Clinton Foundation accepted millions of dollars from seven foreign governments during Hillary Rodham Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state, including one donation that violated its ethics agreement with the Obama administration, foundation officials disclosed Wednesday.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...937c1e-bc3f-11e4-8668-4e7ba8439ca6_story.html

The Clinton Foundation’s finances are so messy that the nation’s most influential charity watchdog put it on its “watch list” of problematic nonprofits last month. The Clinton family’s mega-charity took in more than $140 million in grants and pledges in 2013 but spent just $9 million on direct aid.

The group spent the bulk of its windfall on administration, travel, and salaries and bonuses, with the fattest payouts going to family friends.

The Wall Street analyst who uncovered financial discrepancies at General Electric before its stock crashed in 2008 claims the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has a number of irregularities in its tax records and could be violating state laws. ... According to Ortel’s reports, the contribution disclosures from the Clinton Foundation don’t match up with individual donors’ records. He also argued that the foundation is not in compliance with some state laws regarding fundraising registration, disclosure requirements, and auditing rules.

A little known Swedish-Canadian oil and mining conglomerate human rights groups have repeatedly charged produces “blood minerals” is among the Clinton Foundation’s biggest donors, thanks to a $100 million pledge in 2007, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation has found. “Blood minerals” are related to “blood diamonds,” which are allegedly mined in war zones or sold as commodities to help finance political insurgencies or despotic warlords.

To be fair, Trump would probably be a lot wealthier if he had stayed out of education, steaks, professional football, air travel and a half dozen other failed business ventures.
