As I suspected, the author of the article either fundamentally misunderstands the desire of team Trump to build better relations witb a great power like Russia's whose assistance we are going to need or the author is a Clinton shill.<br /><br />Furthermore I'm pleased to see he has someone on his team in Carter Page who has advocated a lifting of sanctions on Russia. I've advocated this for a long time. Placing sanctions on Russia over Ukraine was the stupidest decision a major power has ever made. Apparently stupid has much company in this case.<br /><br />As for his initial position on Ukraine, as smart people become more versed in the facts, they alter their positions on things. Apparently Mr. Trump has done this.<br /><br />I'd also add the author of the article fundamentally misunderstands how corporate bankruptcies work.B.Posternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-19273651589875766522016-08-03T16:38:20.038-04:002016-08-03T16:38:20.038-04:00SA,
The problem with releasing the tax returns is...SA,<br /><br />The problem with releasing the tax returns is they are under audit and will be subjected to change. I am a Certified Public Accountant in the United States and would NEVER advise a client to release a tax return that is under IRS examination to the public without the advice and consent of a tax attorney and I can say with a high degree of confidence that an attorney would not advise their client to so either. <br /><br />Even if he releases them now, no one is going to be able to understand them and they will reveal that he is very, very rich which is already known. With no upside to releasing the current tax returns accompanied by huge downsides it would be inadvisable to release them at this point. <br /><br />If they contained something that would be harmful Mr. Trump, I think we can be pretty certain the IRS would have already released them in order to sink his campaign on behalf of Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton. <br /><br />Time permitting I will read the link to the article you posted. Very respectfully I think you misunderstand what Mr. Trump and his team are trying to do. They are trying to defuse tensions with a very powerful country who can do us tremendous harm and whose help we are going to need if we are going to properly represent American interests. I think a number of people mistake attempts to defuse tensions as a "man crush" or something.<br /><br />In acting to inflame an already tense situation when it was completely and wholly unnecessary, what the Democrats and team Clinton have done is the equivalent of dumping gasoline on a forest fire or little children playing with matches under a bed. Such people either need to be placed in insane asylums or under adult supervision until they can acquire the maturity to be treated as adults. <br /><br />On the one side we have one group (team Clinton) acting to increase tensions with a major power who can do us TREMEHDOUS harm and whose assistance we are going to need to properly represent our interests and they are doing this for no good reason other than short term political gain. On the other side (team Trump) are trying to reduce tensions and procure constructive relations with this power. As such, I think it obvious who the piece of sh!t is.

It also seems clear that Mr. Kahn's and his son did not communicate much. If they had, Mr. Kahn would know why Mr. Trump cannot give the medal back. All other service personnel would know this as well. <br /><br />With that said military personnel are usually more circumspect about who they give these medals to than this particular person was and it generally is not done publically but this is the service member's right to give the medal to whomever they choose and in what forum they choose to do so. Perhaps the service member and Mr. Trump have an intimate relationship that goes back a long way. Generally such things are not discussed except between the service member, the civilian who is given the medal, and other service members known to both parties.

A hastily deleted website for his law business regarding immigration (since saved by the wayback machine) for example. My personal opinion of the Khan's is they are slimey political tools that dishonored the memory of their son and others that have died in service. And doom on the media for shoving this forward. rjbrashnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-27819628577308900412016-08-03T15:21:59.234-04:002016-08-03T15:21:59.234-04:00Mr. Obama was the first African American with any ...Mr. Obama was the first African American with any shot at being POTUS. Even those who did not vote for him loved him for this. When he ran he was the most loved man in the history of America even by those who did not support his policies. As such, there was no reason to "vet" his crowds.

For them to give you this, is among the highest honors they can bestow upon a civilian. To give this back would be viewed as an egregious insult to the service member who bestowed it upon the civilian. To give it back publically would only add to the insult. <br /><br />If Mr. Kahn had any kind of relationship at all with his son, he would know this. Perhaps he does. Mr. Trump foolishly walked straight into a trap set by the Kahns and the Democrats. Perhaps they think he is stupid enough to walk right into another one. They may well be right. <br /><br />With that said Mr. Trump's response to this seems a bit caviler. I think he did not know what to say and he always has to say SOMETHING this is what popped out of his mouth. As I've said, his mouth tends to get ahead of his brain.B.Posternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-32879383282630348862016-08-03T14:39:58.090-04:002016-08-03T14:39:58.090-04:00Anon.
