    Remains to be seen if prosecutors have a problem with this:

    In at least two deals -- hotels in Hawaii and Vancouver, Ivanka Trump appears to have double-dipped -- serving as both a project manager in her official capacity as a senior staffer for her father's company and as a "consultant" to those same projects.

    And especially if similarly shady payments were made to the "consultants" for the other 25 million.

    Listen..... it's hopeless debating with you people on King Donald I see that.
    It's a weird phenomenon at work that is perplexing and maddening.
    I saw a comedy skit where real people on the street who supported Trump were asked if he ****** little pigs would they still vote for him and they answered yes..... so there you have it..... hopeless.

    About as hopeless as those that voted for a president who got blowjobs from a pig in the Oval Office.

    So a comedy skit about ******* pigs "proves" that we are all hopeless. You act like it was an actual man on the street interview...not a skit. Hopeless is right...but not us.

    If we're talking about hopeless folks let's discuss those that can be told the same crap over and over again and act like it's new info. Here's an article about Trump's taxes in the NY Times in October of 2016. The home of "all the news that's fit to print over and over and over...." now prints the same story again a few weeks before another presidential election and the same morons who thought it was a "blockbuster" 4 years ago are doing the same thing with the same "news" again.

    Biden must some kind of a business whiz..... having earned so much money that he dutifully paid $300,000.00 in taxes while King Donald was losing his dumb ass so much he owed no taxes.
    How does the King afford to maintain that lavish MaraLago estate of his....
    Especially when a well connected lawyer friend of mine in Palm Beach county told me that he cannot find contractors that will do any work for him at MaraLago because he has a bad rep for nonpayment.

    "This is real "man of the people" stuff here.
    And just to make it more relatable, Trump claimed more than $70,000 for getting his hair styled, according to The New York Times' report. Again, that's more than the average American family makes every year — for his hair.
    He enjoyed tax benefits for a lavish estate in Westchester County, New York, and paid more taxes in Panama ($15,598), India ($145,400) and the Philippines ($156,824) than to the United States of America, the report found.
    He was able to pull this off through loopholes and because of his astronomical losses. The Times concludes that there were years Trump "lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer."
    Between 2000 and 2018, companies run by Trump lost almost $175 million, according to The New York Times.
    If you ran a small business that lost money each year, you'd go bankrupt.
    But Trump kept living a lavish lifestyle while losing millions of dollars, and parlayed it into becoming president, in part by assuring people he was a successful businessman. As this report shows, he isn't.

    Was the salon where he got his hair styled closed because of the pandemic (which apparently doesn't apply to Pelosi or mayor Lightfoot) or is there some other reason why this puts a burr up your ass? The guy had a TV show ask the mayor of Chicago, hair is important. Why don't we shoot the people who created or allowed the loopholes? Let's start with Biden, he's been in DC for 47 years.

    Really you defend a 70,000.00 tax deduction payment to his lawyer for his hair? How ******* ridiculous can you get?
    I want to hear now how you defend his aberrant behavior last night in his strategy of incessantly and rudely interrupting Biden for 90 solid minutes? Would you be proud of your son acting in such a rude obnoxious manner on national TV?

    Would you be proud if your son were taking money from Russians, Ukrainians, and Chinese expecting you to help them at the detriment of your country? And while we're talking about behavior during the debate did you hear the various names Biden called Trump? Disgraceful.

    From the NYT, when they fact check against Biden it has to be a whopper.

    Here's the reality of last night's debate:
    "President Donald Trump's desperate, raging debate performance not only laid bare the bullying, racial extremism and contempt for science and fact that tore deep divides over the last four years, it actually inflamed America's four great crises at a moment of deep national peril, leaving voters with their starkest election choice in decades.
    It would have been an extraordinary, self-pitying and savage performance from a down-ballot candidate, but for a President, in control of the nuclear codes, who is supposed to be navigating the country through the worst health emergency in 100 years, the most punishing economic slump in 90 years, and the deepest racial reckoning in 50 years, it was troubling in the extreme. And on top of all that, Trump's warning that he would not accept the result of the election if he loses displayed authoritarian instincts that are creating a fourth crisis by putting US democracy itself on the line."

    That montage would be congruous if you had inserted for Biden your King Donald the would be monarch who plans not to leave the throne when he loses..... and maybe incite a few white supremacists to riot in his behalf while he is at it. He is eerily similar to the mustachioed man bottom center who was also a white Aryan supremacist who held a spell of mass hysteria over his brainwashed base also.
