For help, Kushner Companies turned to Chinese insurance company Anbang. The company agreed to secure a $4bn construction loan to develop the property in early March. But weeks later, as concerns about conflicts of interest mounted, Anbang pulled out. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Really looking forward to 8 years of when the president does anything his motives are automatically suspected to have to do with a business dealing. Plus there's the general absurdity of claiming that an entire country is being attacked because one of its citizens wouldn't deal, especially when most of the things that its neighbors want (excluding shutting down the newspaper) don't sound unreasonable.

It wouldn't be a problem if Trump's dipshit of a son-in-law wasn't such a tool and wasn't begging for handouts from a damn country because his investment flopped like a turd. Furthermore, expect motives to be called into question when the president is a multi-billionaire and has a history of shitty business deals. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Except he's not begging for handouts from a country, he's trying to get a citizen to invest in a business opportunity. Given that the citizen doesn't even have a government post, it's hilariously #fakenews to suggest that he's a country. WastelandCowboy posted...

WastelandCowboy posted... And cut the shit with the "#fakenews" crap. You know better than that. Says the guy posting something from Rolling Stone, a magazine with journalistic standards so low it made headlines for falsely reporting a rape, punished nobody for that failure, and is currently being sued for said case. WastelandCowboy posted... http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/donald-trumps-13-biggest-business-failures-20160314 1) lolrollingstone. If you're going to pick a source with zero credibility, you might as well quote somebody's blog. 2) Those aren't all "business deals" 3) All entrepreneurs take risks and not all of them pan out. The people who spend an inordinate amount of time focusing on a business leader's failings are often the same people who have never tried anything at all. Jen0125 posted...

1. That was a typo. Billion - not million. Step off.
2. Fine. Which sites does the almighty Zeus deem me using as references? Shall I shine your shoes and pick out bad pieces of fruit? 3. I'm damn-well-free to source whatever I want to and you damn-well-know the difference between an overrated hashtag and a website to source. You're just trying to poke holes in logic because it paints the all-powerful Trump in a negative light. 4. Yes. All entreprenuers take risks and not all of them pan out. But when you start racking up a history of failed ventures like Trump, it looks more like a rap sheet than anything else. 5. You're right. I haven't tried anything. You want to know why? I wasn't born into money. I put myself through college, live with my mom, and work a full-time job and any other side job I can just to pay the bills and put food on the table. I don't have any spare money to use for business ventures. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you couldn't tell, that was sarcasm. Well, duh! WastelandCowboy posted... 3. I'm damn-well-free to source whatever I want to and you damn-well-know the difference between an overrated hashtag and a website to source. There's certainly nothing stopping you from using wrong, misleading, or purposefully inaccurate sources, but you really shouldn't want to. WastelandCowboy posted... You're just trying to poke holes in logic because it paints the all-powerful Trump in a negative light. If he was really all powerful, we'd have that wall of magical ice already. #BuildThatWall WastelandCowboy posted... 4. Yes. All entreprenuers take risks and not all of them pan out. But when you start racking up a history of failed ventures like Trump, it looks more like a rap sheet than anything else. You're aware how many ventures he's had, right? You're highlighting a mere thirteen (and why 13? Because they didn't have more material) out of thousands if not tens of thousands of ventures. Steve Jobs had far fewer irons in the stove and even he had at least 13 misfires. Two examples to immediately jump to mind are iAds and NeXT. WastelandCowboy posted... 5. You're right. I haven't tried anything. You want to know why? I wasn't born into money. I put myself through college, live with my mom, and work a full-time job and any other side job I can just to pay the bills and put food on the table. I don't have any spare money to use for business ventures. And those limiting beliefs will guarantee that you'll be living paycheck-to-paycheck until the day you die. Otherwise, I want to remind that most people "born into money" wind up doing exactly dickall with that money and wind up squandering their fortune. 70% of families lose their wealth by the second generation, 90% by the third. Trump defies that trend. Instead of losing money, when he started working at his father's business he gained it and built that fortune up. And that might be why you despise him, because he took advantage of his good fortune to become far more successful. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

Jen0125 posted...Lol I love when almost 50 year old men like Zeus use hash tags to try to look relevant It's even weirder that you keep using age-baiting tricks when you've previously admitted that even if I said my age you wouldn't believe it. More so, the idea you can age-bait me is laughable. Do you think I haven't been dealing with lame attempts at psychological manipulation since I first started using Gamefaqs? Mead posted... It really is odd how little is known about such an active poster on this board Is it, though? Even overlooking that I've probably revealed more here than any other board, I quite honestly know next to nothing about most of your personal lives nor do I have a particular interest in learning the such. Kana posted... Mead posted...It really is odd how little is known about such an active poster on this board Given that I've never "gushed" about Trump let alone "extremely hard," your shitpost is extremely terrible. Granted, this is a forum so far left that if he do so much as to correct a misconception about Trump you have people accusing you of being a Russian agent which, in itself, is a fucking stupid baseless claim largely created by the media to justify their insane narratives and write off detractors. It's also unbelievably reductive, considering my wide range of non-political interests and the fact I was not only active on this board long before anybody knew a Trump candidacy would be a thing but on Gamefaqs for 13+ years before that. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...

Gotta' have the last word, huh Zeus?? No, I just hadn't gotten around to this topic yet. I wasn't even aware that the posts were about me because I had yet to check it; in fact, I had suspected (well, assumed) that you were going to protest one of my remarks and, as such, wanted to give it a little while for you to cool your temper before continuing the discussion. Contrary to popular opinion, I'm non-confrontational by nature although I'm both passionate in argument and blunt in my criticisms. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...
