Clinton campaign hits Trump for seeing Brexit as boon to his business

Not only "Brexit" Trump sees "Email" also as a boon to his business (!)

0 ( +5 / -5 )

“Every president is tested by world events, but Donald Trump thinks about how his golf resort can profit from them,” - article

Donald J. Trump is simply cashing in on his five years of juicing the prejudiced public he serves.

Worst, Trump only cares for profit and has said as much.

At any cost, proven in NY $40 million fraud prosecution.

The dupes who follow der leader dfTrump are of the same caliber of thought Trump confirms in 140 character prejudice and complaint.

Trump, the King of Tweet.

The fact that Trump, once and for all, demonstrated that he is a moron for congratulating Scotland for "taking back" its country (even though Scotland voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU) should ensure that the trend will continue.

4 ( +11 / -7 )

So is it a safe bet it's a bust for Hillary then? Hillary is in the banks pockets Trump is not.

-9 ( +6 / -15 )

The media shouldnt have covered the press conference if everyone felt it was just a commercial for Trumps business. They are very stupid. Anything Trump says or does will twisted as the Globalists and do nothing politicians are out to get him. They are all worried that their free ride will end if he is the Pres.

She will say anything to keep her in the news cycle. Pathetic.

At least he was promoting local tourism. Trump should invite her to go over there and complain that the Britis didn't vote in a way that would benefit middle class Americans.

Nice to see Trump is taking responsibility for every political and economic decision now. I guess being President of the United States or Secretary of State are powerless positions. =The media and Hillary have already elected Trump -at least the UK still holds elections.

At least he's honest about it. Hillary will deny it all day, but looking into her liquid assets....

At any cost, proven in NY $40 million fraud prosecution.

At what cost will Hillary do to will, deal and scheme with dictators to line her pockets? How many?

There you go! That's the reason why so many people hate the MSM liberal media.

Yeah, they'd rather watch Fox "news", with it's less than 50% accuracy rate. It's more fun watching the hate if you ignore the fact that what they are saying isn't true!

Interesting, “What ordinary people are saying is ‘hey, give us an economy that works for all of us, not just the people on top,’ and I think that is to a significant degree what this Brexit vote was about,” Sanders said.

Did Soupy Sanders just agree with Trump? Maybe he'll vote for Trump!

“Every president is tested by world events, but Donald Trump thinks about how his golf resort can profit from them,”

What a laugh! As Hillary takes millions from foreign hands for her Criminal Clinton Foundation. She's already lost.

-8 ( +3 / -11 )

It's got to be grinding Mrs. Bill Clinton's gears that she once again wound up being on the wrong side of history. More importantly, if the Brits had bowed to her wishes and voted to remain, the gravy train with biscuit wheels would have kept on rolling for the Clinton Crime Family Foundation. . . .

Sad how everyone gets on any "negativism" against either candidate based upon emotion rather than rational evaluation of the situation, just because one candidate decided to accuse another of unsubstantiated and even unproven allegations.

Everyone, including myself and probably you would like to take advantage and profit from any event that affects the economy. That is exactly how Wall Street and any stock market works. Trump as well as Clinton as business man and business woman both are trying to make some kind of a profit from every opportunity, regardless what we may think.

The question this type of campaign rhetoric bring to mind is that none of these allegations actually help us to determine the candidate best suited for the country. Why are we being "suckered" into really meaningless rhetoric?

For now at least, while the method of delivery by Trump may be abrasive, his accusations which are much more relative to the position of Presidency, such as the Benghazi incident and the separate Server have been mostly substantiated and close to be proven as being factual. Accusations that has to do with business practices work both ways. It takes an acute business person to face the world that has many countries trying to out maneuver the USA (legally, illegally, ethically, unethically, fairly, and unfairly) in business dealings.

You mean the incident which found no fault in Hillary in 452 bipartisan investigations?

Sorry, if you think that these accusations have any relevancy at all, it just shows you are in the bubble camp, where reality fails to penetrate.

Please explain your logic behind this. How exactly does usage of this word equate to one being in a bubble?

and just jealous.

Why would I be jealous of people who live in an environment that is ignorant of reality?

Although they do say ignorance is bliss, and I guess I could be envious of that bliss.

That figure had me ROFLing too. There's no way it's that high.

I see the city that is 100% Muslim according to Fox ( Birmingham, UK ), voted to leave the EU.

What's your take on that one? Has Fox weighed in on this or were they too afraid to send anyone there as they reported that non-Muslims, even the police, were afraid to enter.

“Hillary Clinton looks at this through the lens of how it’s going to affect middle-class families"

Har! Good one, Mook!

30-40% of Bernie supporters say they won't vote for Hillary, but she has still refused to discuss getting money out of politics. She simply doesn't at all believe in ending political corruption.

-2 ( +2 / -4 )

bass4funk: "50% accuracy rate?? Boy, the liberal blogs are trying so, so very hard. ROFL"

You're right, bass... 50% is far too high for FOX. First, FOX is not news, and never has been. It is entertainment. Second, even when they try to pretend they are about news, they are about 90% wrong.

But hey, bass... weren't you the one saying Trump is benefitting from the massacre in Orlando? That he was benefitting from everything else as well? Now that his approval rating is rock bottom in your own party, and Hilary is up on him more than 13 points in polls today, are you still going to pretend it's all helping him?

3 ( +5 / -2 )

“Hillary Clinton looks at this through the lens of how it’s going to affect middle-class families, Donald Trump through the lens of how it will help his bottom line,” Mook said on “Fox News Sunday.”

I bet Hillary says the same thing to the CEO's of all of the big banks on Wall Street every time they hand over big checks to her campaign. She is doing it for the little people. Hillary can be so hilarious sometimes!

A lot of huffing and puffing coming from our right wi..., er, independent conservative friends here.

They are talk. They know tv personality and failed con man Trump is ridiculous and, despite all their bloviating, and trolling, believe he;s gonna suffer a beardown like Tommy Morrison gave Tomashekback in '93.

Well, I have a challenge going. Perhaps you've heard of it. It goes something like this:

I wager Clinton beats the living crap out of Trump. I bet Clinton does better against Trump in both the popular vote and the electoral college than Obama did when he clobbered McCain back in '08.

What do I bet? The only thing we all have here on JT: our presence. At stakes is our ability to post here for six months. I win, you go away. You win, I go away. For six months. No sock puppets. No new handles.

Just go away.

'Cause I am that confident.

So far, one and only one of our little right wi....er, independent conservatives has had the courage of his or her convictions. Only one.

All the others are just talk.

But my offer stands. If one more has the courage to put their standing where their mouth is, and if, a haa ha aha ha, Trump w...ha aha ha hahaa, sorry, Trump win.. hah ahah ahah [couigh cough] THen I'm gone for two six month periods, or for out right wings friends, that menas 1 year.

So, c'mon guys! Are you just all talk? 'Cause I think you are. And the longer this goes on, the more apparent it will be that you are just all talk, that you really don't believe the crazy conspiracy theories about Benghanzi, or emails, or anything like that, and that you know, you recognize, you fear the truth:

HRC is gonna stomp all over Trump.

HRC is gonna stomp all over Trump

Maybe so. But look, little by little he rose and became the GOP nominee. 10 months ago all you laughed and laughed, calling him a buffoon.

And now you want us to go stick our heads in the sand? And quit posting JT? You're so shallow. Like the kind of guy who is afraid to wear your team NFL jersey after losing the Superbowl. No pride. No dignity. No bearing.

So, c'mon guys! Are you just all talk? 'Cause I think you are.

No we ain't all talk. The world still goes round', the direct deposits still come and the Trumpers will still be there. Clinton leads us, for better or worse. So help me god.

-5 ( +1 / -6 )

Clinton can ignore Sanders nl OS. Her poll get up up every day. She should not alienate industrialists whōnhad created nabs in USA.

1 ( +1 / -0 )

Here is the only time I will respond to you until the next election cycle, where I'll offer the same bet if I believe in the candidate as much much as I believe that HRC will stomp all over Cheeto-Face.

You can talk all you want, and make any excuse you want, but the truth of the matter is as simple as it is plain:

You don't believe in your candidate. If you did, you'd take my bet. Like Fizzy did. FIzzy may be insane, but at least he is willing to stand for what he believes in. Not you.

Because you don't believe what you say, you just continue to talk.

You are nothing but talk. Empty talk.

And that is all I have to say to you.

So now you are extrapolating what one Journalist said? LOL

What's your take on that one? Has Fox weighed in on this or were they too afraid to send anyone there as they reported that non-Muslims, even the police, were afraid to enter.

Don't worry, FOX isn't going nowhere, thank God, otherwise we would hear only liberal one-sided news on every other network. By the way, even for liberal bias critiquing 50% is still half which is still very good news industry wise. Kudos!

http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2016/06/brexit-eu/488597/

The force that turned Britain away from the European Union was the greatest mass migration since perhaps the Anglo-Saxon invasion. 630,000 foreign nationals settled in Britain in the single year 2015. Britain’s population has grown from 57 million in 1990 to 65 million in 2015, despite a native birth rate that’s now below replacement. On Britain’s present course, the population would top 70 million within another decade, half of that growth immigration-driven.

British population growth is not generally perceived to benefit British-born people. Migration stresses schools, hospitals, and above all, housing. The median house price in London already amounts to 12 times the median local salary. Rich migrants outbid British buyers for the best properties; poor migrants are willing to crowd more densely into a dwelling than British-born people are accustomed to tolerating.

Oops, guess Trump was right all along and I was wondering why Obama had that, I just ate a mixture of grapefruit and lemon look on his face.

You're right, bass... 50% is far too high for FOX. First, FOX is not news, and never has been. It is entertainment.

Actually, entertainment is watching Democrats and liberals around the world panicking because it looks more and more like everyone is not going to get a free ride anymore. Finally, everyone is waking up and I can't wait for Germany to make its much needed exit from the EU as well. Schadenfreude!

Second, even when they try to pretend they are about news, they are about 90% wrong.

According to progressives, which means, that 85% of the time, they're wrong. Obama is a great example and is the poster boy of progressive failures.

But hey, bass... weren't you the one saying Trump is benefitting from the massacre in Orlando? That he was benefitting from everything else as well? Now that his approval rating is rock bottom in your own party, and Hilary is up on him more than 13 points in polls today, are you still going to pretend it's all helping him?

Well, no. It's helping him in a sense that most liberals aren't aware of the fly over America, you know, where the vast majority of Blue collar Americans live and are not happy with Obama or Hillary and many of them will come out to vote for Trump in massive numbers. But when you look at a Trump rally you see a lot of people and a lot of enthusiastic excitement and when you go to a Hillary rally, you can't get a full venue, the crowd is almost falling asleep. But let's be real, both candidates are unpopular and both are popular with their fanbase. Two close to call and even in certain States like Florida Clinton and Trump are very close. So we have a few months left. in 1980 Carter for a second looked like he was going to beat Reagan and then what.... Be careful what you wish for.

You don't believe in your candidate. If you did, you'd take my bet.

I like what he says. I like how he shook things up. But lets face it, he prob won't win, that the reality of it all. No biggy. In the end we're all still Americans, for betteries or worse.

You are nothing but talk. Empty talk.

Why? Because won't go stick my head in the sand? Would you take a stupid bet if I said YOU must stop posting "if" and "when" there is another terrorist strike committed by radical Muslims? Prob not.

And that is all I have to say to you.

Fine. But keep yor eyes and ears open cause I ain't going ANYWHERE BS-

How awful that Trump should have not only an opinion but also a business. And how terrible that Trump's enterprise should not only be employing Scots but is also responsible for increasing tourism to the UK!

Clinton makes what exactly?

She certainly takes a lot of money for praising a Wall Street.

Maybe, she should be thinking of making jobs for ordinary Americans instead of criticizing the actions of other Americans involved in positive actions abroad?

It should come as no surprise, as his empire was built on profiting from the misfortunes of others, many of whom were intentionaly targeted and duped by his and his sons' companies, from Trump U to the image marketing/spin company run by his son, to the defrauded contractors who worked on spec for him and lost their businesses as a result.

I see Hillary has opened up a 12 point lead over the Trumpster in the latest poll, and since there is no chance she'll be indicted even though she's still technically under criminal investigation by the FBI for her illegal home email server, putting government secrets at risk, we'll just have to put up with her until Jan. 2021.

"Tell Washington Post and New York Times Hillary Clinton Will Get Indicted Before July 25."

This guy must be delusional, there's no way Obama is going to allow Hillary, who he just endorsed, to be indicted for any crimes, even ones involving putting government secrets at risk.

Clinton: house panel cleared Clinton. Republican panel members refused the pressure to politicize their conclusion and they used their investigation data.about e mail, FBI has to produce evidence, smartphone, it already has. If it does not know how to rfead or download to a Word processor file, it is not Hillary's responsibility.

You: I'll take that bet.

Me: Its a deal.

Just so we are clear,ou countered my offer with a straight up win for either HRC or Trump, so hear are our terms:

I bet Clinton will win. You bet Trump will win. If either our respective candidates lose, we will not post here at JT for six months.
