Oh, I get it! I am a very good developer, happily living my life, when I see our Country going in the wrong direction (to put it mildly). Against all odds, I decide to run for President & continue to run my business-very legal & very cool, talked about it on the campaign trail…

….Lightly looked at doing a building somewhere in Russia. Put up zero money, zero guarantees and didn’t do the project. Witch Hunt!

Donald Trump lies.
All the time.
About everything.
Jeffrey Toobin writing in the New Yorker:
In Toobin’s formulation, the problem is not so much that Trump insisted on his rights; it is that the press and the public did not insist on theirs.
I think that Trump in this situation, would have a moral obligation to inform the public about his business interest.
The public and the press can only ask about so much. And the voters allowed Trump to not reveal his tax information, just saying.
Perhaps it would have been less of a problem if you hadn’t repeatedly lied about not doing business in Russia, or being ensnared with Putin’s government, or having your minions, including the boys, in frequent contact on your behalf.
Btw, is “'lightly doing business” the same thing as being just a little bit pregnant?
