Funny how the MSM hasn't picked up on this bomb shell. Not even CNN or The NY Times.

Trump may be even worse than the crass, lying, bigoted sexual predator we already know him to be. I suppose the good news might be Clinton cannot be any worse than the crass, lying, bigoted, status quo, do-anything-to-get-in-office politician we already know her to be? This fails to comfort me.

I drink Russian vodka. Do I have ties to Russia? My cousin is married to a Russian movie star. Am I then a Russian operative?

Never considered Time Magazine to pick sides in any political situation. I've always viewed their magazine as bi-partisan to strictly facts based without slant in any direction. But given the Trumpism mindset that has invaded rational thought these days - any news source that prints or is perceived to print a "bad" word about Herr Trump is deemed "liberal". Even those who have staunchly been Republican/Conservative based in the past. Go figure.

Hmmmmm, let us examine the business practices of the US government for a moment, and from whom they take money from. I mentioned Vodka. Russian Vodka to be exact. Just wondering how much the Russians pay the federal government to import it. Now let's have a look at Venezuela. I wonder how much money comes to our government from oil sales?
You liberals would name the Russians as our enemy while all the while, including during the Cold War, we took billions in tax revenue from them for doing business with them. And y'all bitch about Trump.
HahahahaahahahaahhHah

HahahahaahahahaahhHah And, in turn, they spend equal amounts in the import of Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, various new-brands of moonshine (now that it's legally sold) and other distilled-alcoholic beverages. What's your point? Trump is not able to secure a bank loan with American banks due to his multiple bankruptcies and history of non-payment of debts. So, he resorts to foreign lenders to fund his future failures (which should be a conflict of interest for potential Presidents in normal political times, but surprisingly isn't here). The import/export taxes our government receives is a part of our government's funding. Trump's borrowing from Russian oligarchs with close ties to Putin is his personal effort to increase his personal wealth. You're trying to compare apples and basketballs. Not even in the same "item" category.

Not even in the same "item" category. Are you trying to bring ethics into the argument? My only point was that I don't really care why Trump does business with. It's none of my business. Any more then a candidates tax returns are. So what Trump borrows money from Putin. It's not like we're enemies. No more than we are with China, which BTW, hold a huge chuck of our national debt. Or any other of the questionable dealings where money changes hands on BOTH sides of the isle. You can't tell me for a minute all the Clinton foundation money is clean. Not for a second. So pull your knickers out of a wad and focus on what the candidates, any of them, have to say about what they will do, balance that against the likelihood of what they will actually get done and vote accordingly, preferably starting with the most important local elections, where the checks and balance system gets it strength. Nice talking to you. Can't help but think your name as Bill because I knew a Bill with your last name.
