Irregularities with the Trump Inaugural Fund

[dank69]

There are two incorrect assumptions in that statement that render it meaningless. You're improving.

There is only one assumption in the whole post...

 

[ch33zw1z]

Trump’s foundation exists only to solve Trump’s problems with pre-tax dollars and allow the occassional legal bribe. His money laundering takes place overseas. (Assuming it exists.)

Not all of it.

This just keeps on getting better and better. Trump claiming to not know anything about Russia would be like him going to an all you can eat BBQ and then denying that he was there while wearing BBQ sauce all over his face and shirt.

IRS uncovered transactions as far back as 2003.

In 2008 Don Jr was quoted about Russian money

You have to be willfully ignorant to support this nonsense.

If you think about, he fits right in with slime like Paul Ryan.

When this is over I hope it turns out like Nixon's did where loads of his pals all sank with him.

Family business mixing in with the nation's business for one heck of a boost in profit potential is the new normal here.

I'm sure Trump's supporters think there's absolutely nothing wrong with Donny the Dealer putting the financial welfare of the Trump Clan ahead of the nation's welfare and security.

As with so many other highly suspect business related actions and consequences the Trump Clan have been involved in, their supporter's complete silence over it is by default, tacit approval of all of it. Their putting up with these ongoing travesties of justice only makes them out to be brain-dead bots owing their loyalty to the Trump Clan based on all of those fear and hate campaign speeches he made along with those numerous debunked false promises and lies he gave them in his run-up for office.

I can't wait for the Mueller pile driver of an investigation of the Trump Clan's business affairs come out in the open in the form of arrests and convictions. It surely seems headed in that direction.

It needs to go there so people can see his true colors.

Foolish Trump. He should have a foundation to funnel questionable money and bribes through. That's the difference between an armature and a pro.

He did. NY state shut it down, though.

Guess when people investigate fraudulent foundations, they actually shut them down for actually being fraudulent. Gee, maybe they should have shut down the Clinton foundation, huh? Oh, you think it's fraudulent anyway, just because feels and not because actual evidence?

Conservatives' response to anything Clinton is Pavlovian at this point. They're fully conditioned.

Just a little touchy about the Clinton's are we?
To answer you, yes, I think the Clinton foundation was in part a vehicle that allowed them to accept questionable donations. I didn't know Trump had one, though it seems like an obvious tool for the wealthy to have.
For the record, I don't like Trump, I don't like Hillary either, but Trump won the election and that's the end of it. I had hoped that he'd step up to the plate and act like a pro, obviously I'm pretty disappointed in that aspect of his victory. Many on the left are still having a tantrum over Trumps win, and accept every rumor is absolute proof of any number of crimes, I don't. There are plenty of links around here to reliable sources outlining Trumps many transgressions and crimes, every single one of them I've looked at leads back to someone with an ax to grind, an agenda to maintain, or like the "dossier", a paid hit piece without any substantiation.
The FBI is better equipped to investigate Trump than I am, so I'll wait until they present their evidence before I find him guilty. If he has committed crimes, he should be impeached at the very least.

You realize nothing so far has been disproven in the dossier , Despite the conservatives sites saying it’s nothing.

Trump Foundation?

The various connivances of Trump are Legend. It's part of his Raffish appeal. His fans know he's a con artist but they believe him anyway.

That's a two way street.

I wouldn't expect anything to be "disproven", that ain't the way it works. Someone makes accusations, it's up to them to provide proof. I haven't seen any evidence that a single word of it is true, other than the word of people that all profited from the document.
Could you provide prof that you've never stomped a bunny? Could you prove that you've never kicked your dog or pulled your cats tail? No? Does that mean you did those things? This is why the burden of proof is always on the accuser. The only thing Trump has to do is say the dossier is a lie. That's it, end of story until actual evidence is produced. The rule is the same for each individual accusation in the document, one item being proven correct doesn't lend credence to the rest.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the accusations are valid, but that isn't enough to toss him out of office.

Clearly that ship has sailed.

So you don't like Trump, but because he won, that is just the end of it? You seem to think that one's mind shuts down when a final value in the equation is reached, regardless of that value? We all toe the line or go fuck off, eh? I don't get this.

If Trump winning was the end of it, and he conducted himself as a rational person, an actual leader, a competent person, then yeah, you would make a little more sense. But Trump winning was barely the beginning of it. "Miraculously," Trump turned out to be exactly who the vast majority of Americans knew he was: an idiotic, narcissistic, petulant manchild that has more skill shoving his dick into a hamburger than he does running an actual business.

No, I simply will not "shut up" about the fact that a grossly incompetent semi-human is in charge of enough nuclear weapons to destroy this world 20 times over. This isn't about me being "touchy about the Clintons." I'm fucking sick of Clintons, but that's the point: we have to keep hearing from the very same idiots that elected this shithole that somehow the Clintons are still relevant. It's about having to hear the same god damn nonsense fallacies over and over and fucking over again from the same god damn peanut gallery of hypocritical imbeciles.

Not sure that has anything to do with money laundering, although it certainly could. Typically these violations are where people withdraw a thousand, lose it, withdraw another thousand, lose it, and so on until their total withdrawal creeps over $5,000. It could be money laundering, true, if that person wasn't actually gambling and simply redeemed $5,000 of chips at the end of the day. But it seems awfully retail to be Trump and company.

Well, I certainly won't try to deny you the right to pound your head on a rock, though eventually you're going to get tired of the squishy sound. I'll continue to wait for actual proof of wrong doing. Or congress may decide to add "asshole" to the list of impeachable offences. In that case I'll wave goodbye to Trump and hope that in 2020 one of the two parties manages to come up with a viable candidate. I'd be happy with a leftest who can actually come up with a viable method of paying for the things he/she wants to do, or a strict constitutionalist who would hand all of the thorny problems back to the individual states. I'm bipolitical, I swing both ways.

You're deliberately minimizing with an unverifiable assertion. Neither one of us knows anything about the circumstances nor the actual amounts involved, other than each instance was greater than $5000.

 

[brandonbull]

Bingo! While there is absolutely no valid evidence any of the Clinton Foundation funds were used personally by the Clintons and it had a score in the 90+ percent range, there is an incontrovertible fact that Trump used the vast majority of his foundation funds for himself and it had a score of 5 percent.

But hey! Projection had worked so far right?

The right-wing is Orwellian in their doublespeak. Truly fscking Orwellian.

Also no evidence that CF funds were used to help Haiti.

Can we get a little more duh-version over here?

 

[Alpha One Seven]

It's been one year since Trump took office yet his inaugural fund has some issues. This is normally something that is resolved well before now with a full disclosure of how those funds have been disbursed yet Trump is running this one covertly. I would like to know how they were dispersed and what happened to the surplus funds from this account.

Disbursed??
LOL
dis·perse
dəˈspərs/

[IronWing]

With Trump, both words are apt. Where did all that casino money go before Trump sent his company into bankruptcy? Scattered on the wind? Blown into Trump's hundreds of LLCs?
