Quote:So just to be clear, you are saying tgat trump is not a republican because you havent heard his plan to reform medicare and you concede that you havent heard a plan from any other candidate in the republican field.
 

No, he's saying that he doesn't like Trump on this issue because Trump doesn't even recognize that there's a problem.

Thank you.   That statement is absolutely true about my feelings about Trump.   There are a lot of other reasons why I don't like Trump, but this (entitlements) is one of the big ones.  
Quote:Yea but Trump is a meanie and he offended little Marty with his naughty language.
 

Talking about the size of his penis during the debate is on my list of reasons, but it's way down the list. 
Trump on Putin:

"I always felt fine about Putin," Trump said. "I think that he's a strong leader. He's a powerful leader … He's actually got a popularity within his country. They respect him as a leader."


SCARBOROUGH: But, again: He kills journalists that don't agree with him.

TRUMP: Well, I think that our country does plenty of killing, too, Joe.

 

 

Donald Trump’s business disaster is worse than you think

Why is Donald Trump getting a pass for his disastrous and incompetent track record of running a public company?

For 10 years between 1995 and 2005, Donald Trump ran Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts — and he did it so badly and incompetently that it collapsed into Chapter 11 bankruptcy. His stockholders were almost entirely wiped out, losing a staggering 89% of their money.

While Trump was running Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts into the ground, the Dow Jones index of gambling stocks ... soared 160%.

Donald Trump ran the worst performing casino company on the stock market. This isn’t a matter of “opinion.” This isn’t speculation or politics. It’s a matter of plain fact.

However, one person associated with Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts did make money:

Donald J. Trump.

Trump himself was siphoning millions out of Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts through salary, “bonuses” — yes, really — and cozy “service agreements” or side deals with his private corporations.

In total, Donald Trump pocketed $32 million over nine years, while his public stockholders lost more than $100 million.

Follow the money. It really isn’t that complex.

Now his supporters want to put him in charge of the federal government. They actually hope he will do for America what he’s already done for his business.

 

Trump Mortgage 

In the spring of 2006, the tycoon hosted a glitzy event at Trump Tower to introduce Trump Mortgage LLC, ...

“I think it’s a great time to start a mortgage company,”  Trump told a CNBC interviewer in April 2006, adding that “the real estate market is going to be very strong for a long time to come.”Recently, as a candidate, Trump has presented himself as a truth teller who sounded an early alarm about the pending mortgage crisis. He told MSNBC last July that he had known the housing market “was a bubble that was waiting to explode.”

Quote:“I told a lot of people,” Trump said. “And I was right. <b>You know, I’m pretty good at that stuff</b>.”

Hilldog did pretty well for herself considering what she had to work with.

1. What is wrong about this statement? There is no solid proof that Putin murdered any journalist, and he is right, the United States does kill A LOT of people.

 

2. Atlantic City casinos were all dying, not just Trumps. Give me the stock index for Atlantic City casinos only. All of his bankruptcies are related to Atlantic City. Good thing you and I know that Donald Trump, being an international businessman, has done a lot of business in places other than New Jersey. To judge him on Atlantic City alone would be like Judging Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio alone on their previous support of amnesty. Regardless, he used Chapter 11 in this case to his benefit and was praised for doing so. I am not going to discredit a businessman for making advantageous business dealings. The government-media complex has spun chapter 11 bankruptcy to be a dirty or unethical practice. FYI, the only people who believe that are those who have never, and could never, own and run a business.

 

3. Never seen much information on this one. Again though, you're going to discredit his business acumen over a statement made nearly three years before the actual real-estate crash? He took a risk it appears. He wouldn't open a mortgaging company and then say "I expect the market to crash in three years". Use some common-sense here.

 

Enough with this negativity on ticky-tack businesses deals Trump has had (Trump Mortgage, really?). Everyone has made mistakes, I actually like a candidate that is flawed and not a robot or the second coming of Christ. The man has owned over a hundred businesses, which I will list (again). A few bad deals doesn't spoil the bunch, and certainly shouldn't discredit his success in business.

Republicans are now claiming they will vote for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump. Not really surprised, but it kind of throws out the narrative "Anybody but Clinton" they have been spewing the past few years. I cannot WAIT for the GOP to finally die. The party of Lincoln and Reagan my butt, this is the party of backroom deals and globalism. Burn, baby, burn. Let rise a pro-American, anti-globalist party that actually represents working-class Americans.

Didn't she run HP into the ground?

Yes because turning 1M into billions is done simply by putting your money in the stock market and watching it grow by 59% every year. No hard work involved at all.

Quote:Nice trolling friendo
 

Who's trolling?  I simply answered your question with my own opinion.

 

Quote:Didn't she run HP into the ground?
 

Actually quite the opposite.  She served as CEO of HP from 1999 - 2005.  What exactly happened during that time frame? (Hint, near peak of and eventual burst of the dot-com bubble).  Many tech companies were hurt during that time frame however, HP survived and is still successful today.

Funny but true.

Not really.  A career as a lawyer/politician and shady deals is not exactly a prestigious business career.

She was basically fired because of her incompetent handling of the business, including the disastrous merger with Compaq. But hold on, wait wait wait. We won't blame Fiorina for the downfall of HP because the dot-com bubble popped, but we will blame Donald Trump on his Atlantic City casinos when Atlantic City crashed? Fantastic.

Did you bother reading the article that you linked?

 

Quote: 

In the past, Cruz has had a fraught relationship with the Bush clan. Cruz worked on George W. Bush's 2000 presidential campaign, but since then he has largely charted his own course in Texas politics. He has been critical of George W. Bush's presidency on the campaign trail, and the former president returned the favor by telling a private audience in October that he just does "not like that guy."
 

Just spin away though, because all you and other people hear is that "a Bush is in the Cruz camp".  Never mind the actual facts.
