Oh,,, Beto has a Blind Trust to keep his business out of his political life like Trump does! So, If Trump properties are in a Blind Trust, how is he making money on them during his Presidency? Trump Properties are making money!
Trump doesn't have a blind trust. "giving" your business to your kids Beavis and Butthead to run isn't a Blind Trust. I can't believe you are even posting something this stupid. You're not new here and this surprises you? |

My mother has a Mexican name, and she is pretty Irish too. I will tell her she is in violation of the Republican code.

Let's look at $110,000.
Prior to trump winning the election, the initiation fee for new members to join Mar-A-lago club was $100,000. In January 2017, the initiation fee for new members was raised to $200,000. Why they increase when the club was perfectly fine prior to trump's election with a $100,000 fee.
So who benefits from the $100,000 increase in the initiation fee? trump properties and ergo, donald trump.
So we have a thread started to spark outrage over a measly $110,000 when just one new member at Mar-a-lago pays $200,000 in 2017 after trump's election, up $100,000 from 2016. This is one one member at one location. Think of the memberships at all of trump's golf courses, and the branding of trump buildings in the hope of raking in the bucks. And they do rake in the bucks to curry favor with trump. And where does all this money go? trump's pocket.
An attempt to try and equivocate something between one guy's measly $110,000 and another guy's millions of dollars from a known corrupt guy as the same is utterly laughable and worthy of scorn.

By all means keep defending an Irish Democrat who says he is Mexican  I wonder if you know there are Mexican citizens of Irish descent. In case you don't, here you go. Irish immigration to Mexico |

Maybe he and his sex results are such bad businessmen that all the money he is bringing in is keeping the place open. |

So please explain to me how this is a blind trust? Further, since he will not release his tax info, how do you know he isn't making money from the Trump properties? Did you have special access to them like you do with the Mueller report since you seem to know what is in there? Nope I don.t have special access to his taxes,, I am sure the IRS does, if there was something there, Lois Lerner would be leaking it! |

I see, he did put it into a Trust not a blind Trust. Trump is putting his assets into a trust, but not a blind one. Under the trust agreement, Trump is turning over management of the company to his adult sons, Don Jr. and Eric, and a longtime Trump executive, Allen Weisselberg.

Lerner hasn't been at the IRS for almost six years. Try to keep up.

By all means keep defending an Irish Democrat who says he is Mexican No different than Trump saying over and over (or should I say lying over and over) about his dad being born in Germany. But who is keeping track |

But who is keeping track When my grandmother was in a nursing home with dementia she would say her mom was coming for her and they were going shopping. I think trump is beginning to have those same problems now. Bizarre utterances. |
