I just read this entire article and it is a long article describing the Trumps.  It is good insight into the deceptive pig that Trump is.  It is long but worth the read if you want to understand the making of Donald Trump.  The link refers to divorce but the article is a tell all of the Trump business and his scams.

Why the silence about Donald Trumps mob ties?

Sorry.  It's not news. 

Whatever was investigated and exposed back then, is what it is.  And I'm a Cruz-supporter.

This is one thing that has always bothered me about Trump.....one CANNOT build anything in NYC or the State of New Jersey for that matter with out the mob and it's puppet's the various union's getting a "piece" of the action.  The Biggest mob controlled union is that of the concrete industry, the trucks, the spreader's and finishers, then of course you get into bid rigging and all sorts of other angles.  A guy like Trump has to be very very clever around these people to stay in business and avoid getting caught up in any investigation of which there have been many.

Wherein lies the problem with the LIV, most have no clue as to what core values mean. they only see what Trump spews today, and easily dismiss his history. Stupid libs, they're all about rhetoric, as if lies will transfer in to kept promises.

Respectfully disagree.  That is what politics is about.  Digging up the dirt and this guy is a dirt bag.  I have been criticized for comparing him to Hitler and surprise!  Wifey says way back then that Trump studies Hitler speech's.  And all of his scummy connections and influence.  I could see it.  He uses Hitler's playbook when making his own speech's.

If Trump was to win people like me would be in a world of hurt.  It would be a country for business and mob that is for sure.  Any way to get around the rules.  I am passionate to expose this pig.

We already have a crime influenced pResident.  Obama was full of shady connections.  He really should be able to relate to his fellow Democrat.

How is that any different from the last four Presidents?

It's news to me!  ...and a whole generation of voters who weren't even alive at the time.

Right now, on the radio, Cruz is being accused of impropriety by the MSM, and the other under 40yr old guys I know haven't heard any SOLID news on Trump's past.  They like Trump for his tough talk, the TV program, and he sounds like a wildly successful guy.   We got a 34yr old, ex-marine who loves EVERYTHING Trump says.

Post it, and open some eyes.    Not everyone has hours and hours in the day to do candidate research.

That's making the case for Trump. He's no different than the last 4 libs in the WH.

Can you IMAGINE this bozo as president....?

Quote
"History will judge those involved unfavourably and the outcome demonstrates the foolish, small minded and parochial mentality which dominates the current Scottish government's dangerous experiment with wind energy," a statement from the Trump Organisation said.
....
The Supreme Court analysed the case at a hearing in London in October after the businessman had twice lost fights in Scottish courts.

A panel of Supreme Court justices has now ruled against him.

Trump has said he would pull the plug on plans to further develop the resort near Balmedie if the wind farm project went ahead.

Well, I have to admit, he knows how to leverage assets to gain a favorable outcome.   (act like a spoiled brat, burn those bridges, insult foreign governments)   Maybe Scotland has some kind of eminent domain law, and a need for a road to an adjacent low-income housing project...?   LOL

 

"There is no way the R&A will go near the Ayrshire course while Trump is in charge. As a result, Scotland stands to lose the £100 million economic return from a Turnberry Open," said Mr. Salmond, referring to the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, which organizes the British Open, golf's oldest major tournament.

In a statement sent in response to Mr. Salmond's comments, a spokesman for the Trump Organization asked rhetorically: "Does anyone care what this man thinks? He's a has-been and totally irrelevant."

"He should go back to doing what he does best—unveiling pompous portraits of himself that pander to his already overinflated ego," said the spokesman.

Fine. Trump supports subsidies for the wind industry. For anyone familiar with Trump's history, though, even that is a stunning bit of pandering.

Trump, in fact, does know a lot about wind. A few years ago, Donald Trump wanted to build a golf course in Scotland. There was just one problem: The Scottish government had licensed an off-shore wind farm near the course, which Trump worried would ruin the views.

He went to war, using all of the tools at his disposal: money, lawyers, and Twitter. He sued to block the wind farm, pushing legal challenges all the way to the Scottish Supreme Court. He attacked then-Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond, saying that Salmond was "a man whose obsession with obsolete wind technology will destroy the magnificence and beauty of Scotland." He insisted that the project was doomed because given "the current political movement to end wind farm subsidies, it's impossible to envision how this ill-conceived proposal will ever get built."

Trump said one thing about immigration, and certain segments of society fell on their knees in worship. Have you noticed that in the media, nothing becomes "news" until Trump says it. The Left loves Trump, because he's the deal making, crony capitalist, establishment Republican, they're very familiar with.
