Trumps financials have been turned over to the House Democrats. What do you think they will show?

Asked by chyna (51308points) May 23rd, 2019

Wells Fargo and TD have reportedly turned over his financials to the Democrats.

Will Trump dodge another bullet if they show wrong doing?
Are you interested in hearing about the findings or is this just another thing for Trump to say is fake and get away with?

They may well show financial dealings with Russia even after he took office. As far as dodging the bullet…IDK. I have been continually astonished since the day he was elected by the electoral college.

You are implying that Trump has “dodged bullets’. What wrong doing has he ‘dodged’ ?

And what before has Trump“faked’ and ‘gotten away with’?

I am noticing a consistent pattern where you put in a false charge into a question, as if its true, and when the answer is given, you say it is somehow a lie. since it is not consistent with the premise or implication of your question.

Why can’t you accept the results that are plainly there, and quit thinking that if you add enough innuendo or outright fabrication, it somehow will be ‘true’? Or if you keep on looking, making accusations, or saying the same thing, you will get different results?

Here’s a random sample cut and pasted off the internet of the mentality you are espousing:

According to NBC News, both Wells Fargo and TD Bank, two of the nine banks that do business with the phony billionaire running the country into a Russian urine-soaked mud pit, have “complied with subpoenas issued by the House Financial Services Committee demanding information about their dealings with the Trump Organization.”

Quotes like this are pretty common and easy to find among your sources.

Grabbing women by the pussy.
Dodging the draft.
How many bankruptcies?
Not paying his contractors.
He could shoot someone in broad daylight and people will still vote for him.
Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall (Of course he claims he never said that)
Making fun of a handicapped individual.
“Leaking blood from her who knows where.”
Suggesting he has a large penis…on national TV.
Suggesting he’d sleep with his daughter.
The list goes on and on and on. How the hell that sleezebag ever got this far is mystifying.

Lets just take the charge about the “making fun of a handicapped individual’—since this is what changed my mind about Trump (I was an ardent Mike Huckabee supporter for 2016).

My sister told me that Trump had ‘made fun of a handicapped reporter’ but nobody .not my sister or anyone else, could site any reporter or other individual who had a disability that would cause them to speak or move the way Trump was imitating in those clips were referring to. Also, none of the clips were mocking the same critic. Trump had quoted many people in the same demeanor, none of whom had a disability.

The reporter he made fun of was Serge Kovaleski.

And it’s the wilful ignorance such as yours @Yellowdog, that put that petulant, spoiled, disgusting, bratty asshole in office. It’s because of people like you that our name is being dragged through shit. We are the laughing stock of the rest of the world….because of people like you.

@Yellowdog, are you living under a rock?

The reporter Trump mocked was Serge Kovaleski, who suffers from arthrogryposis:

This is what arthrogryposis does to the body: https://rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/arthrogryposis-multiplex-congenita/

Here is the clip of Donald Trump mocking the reporter, and as a byproduct, anyone with a disability. It is shameful:

@Yellowdog Of all the comebacks to @Dutchess_III rebuttal, you chose the ONE that, to me, is the most repugnant of all the crap Trump pulls. Look at @Kardamom‘s link. If you don’t see that as making fun of that reporter, then you are a lowlife.

Yellowdog's avatar

Well, he HAS mocked others this way, as it was done at several rallies over a period of time that was not related to this one reporter.

But yes, I was wrong, and I thank you for the links.

Your evidence is pretty undeniable in this case that Trump was indeed mocking a disabled person, Serge Kovaleski, who suffers from arthrogryposis. If its any compensation I will pass this information along to other Trump supporters who may also be “living under a rock”

I have worked with a disabled woman, Joy Lynn White, the 1973 Easter Seals Poster Child of Tennessee as a friend for many years until her death in 2012 and was fairly active at the Center for Independent Living, working with many disabled people who were friends of her. I myself have a learning disability diagnosed relatively early, and had a severe stuttering problem until my mid-teens.

Admitting one is wrong is difficult in today’s polarized climate. In the future, I will give your objections a lot more credence.

Thank you @yellowdog.

Actually, thank YOU.

Bankrupting 3 casinos. Stiff arming his contractors while bragging about his business acumen then losing a billion dollars to demonstrate his brilliance. His lawyers in jail. His family can’t get a security clearance, his associates not yet jailed for BEING his associates, disgraced with their reputations in tatters. Black listed internationally by reputable banks, to fall back on the bank notorious for facilitating the Russian kleptocrats who just happen to underpin the stable genius through buying up his tasteless tacky condos. From the rug on his head to the boogers in his nose the man is a walking testimonial to scandalous bad taste and monumental fraud with no authenticity beyond his excruciating ignorance and the decorum of a bedbug.

But what about Hillary??????

stanleybmanly's avatar

Yes of course it’s obvious to ALL us that SHE’s the crook!

Dutchess_III's avatar

Never mind that she was investigated at length and there was no evidence of wrong doing. She’s still a criminal.

Yellowdog's avatar

Well, surveilling an opposition political party during an election year might be problematic. And what about that Russia Collusion Steele dossier funded by Hillary through Francis Coie? Isn’t distributing Russian disinformation, the Steele dossier, to influence an election pretty hard to get around?

chyna's avatar

And there she is…Hillary.

Kardamom's avatar

Poor Hillary Clinton. What must it be like to be blamed for everything from the ice age, to the heartbreak of psoriasis, to causing autism, and then to be investigated extensively, and to be cleared of any crimes, then to be repeatedly blamed for all sorts of things that she didn’t do by the Republicans? She must be a busy woman.

I bet Hillary Clinton is secretly blamed by the religious right for the lack of the second coming of Christ.

Dutchess_III's avatar

It’s really ridiculous.

Yellowdog's avatar

Why not, then, deal with facts and actual records, rather than mocking and insulting about things such as the second coming of Christ?

What happened, HAPPENED. And it now has to be dealt with. Everything has been de-classified, You wanted transparency, You got it,

One more thing. Although Hillary Clinton did go though some interviews for her crimes, she never had to testify under oath, and had lawyers and friends with her. A.G. Loretta Lynch said it wasn’t an investigation, it was a “matter.” Although Comey listed quite a list of actual felonies on July 5,2016, she was cleared of all of them by her flunkies and those close to her politically.

Kardamom's avatar

@ Yellowdog Hillary Clinton had been investigated for years and has been repeatedly come up as NOT having committed any crimes!!!

Stop watching/listening to Fox News. Do some research! Please! Stop listening to your sister, who doesn’t do her homework.

Figure it out!!!

Yellowdog's avatar

Comey himself gave a list of felonies and then supposedly cleared her of them on July 5, 2016, which of course he had no authority to do.

At the very least, she had classified material on her servers, which she was keeping from the government. She destroyed phones and hard drives when subpoenaed—obstruction, anyone?
You don’t even care about what she was using those servers for. But these are serious, actual crimes that yes, really were committed.

I know this is in social, but the topic is NOT Hilary, so if you could get back on topic, I would appreciate it.

stanleybmanly's avatar

Given his resistance to their exposure, I would suspect there’s little to be found by way of enhancing his innocence.
