birdog1960 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 And again, this is a civil suit, which is in the same class as the several suits filed against Hillary by GOP. If Schneiderman is so certain of his case, why didn't he file criminal fraud charges? so you're backing away from that whole "he wasn't charged" thing. cool. cuz he was. by several accepted definitions of the word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) so you're backing away from that whole "he wasn't charged" thing. cool. cuz he was. by several accepted definitions of the word No i'm not. He wasn't charged. Schneiderman is filing a civil lawsuit. If you listen to Schneiderman's comments, it's a slam dunk wire & mail fraud case. Yet no criminal charges. Why not?

B-Man Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Disgraced newsman Dan Rather lectures Donald Trump on ‘good journalism’ PREVIEW: Expect Hillary Clinton to attack Donald Trump on foreign policy today, but nothing on her proposals From the AP: Trump accused Clinton of lying about his foreign policy plans at a rally at an airport hangar in Sacramento, California, Wednesday night. “She lies. She made a speech and she’s making another one tomorrow. And they sent me a copy of the speech and it was such lies about my foreign policy,” Trump said. “They said I want Japan … to get nuclear weapons. Give me a break,” he objected. “I want Japan and Germany and Saudi Arabia and South Korea and many of the NATO nations — they owe us tremendous. We’re taking care of all these people. And what I want them to do is pay up.” I'm sure she'll bring up her accomplishments: * All the miles she's travelled* All the heads of state she's talked with* All the time zones she's crossed* Did I mention all the miles she's travelled?* All the lasting peace accords she's created* All the ambassadors she's allowed to be slaughtered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddogblitz Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Trump U sounds sleazy and shady. Not trying to excuse Trump, but you know, there's a sucker born every minute. Sounds exactly like a bunch of other get rich in real estate systems. My Dad used to say if some person has a sure fire way to make millions in real estate, they'd go out and do it, not try to sell you books, seminars, and video tapes.

B-Man Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Donald Trump is the response to a bullying culture by Glenn Reynolds Abusive political correctness drives voters into the impolitic billionaire's loud embrace Back in February, analyzing Donald Trump’s appeal,David Gelernter wrote: “Political correctness. Trump hasn't made it a campaign theme exactly, but he mentions it often with angry disgust. Reporters, pundits, and the other candidates treat it as a sideshow, a handy way for Trump (King Kong Jr.) to smack down the pitiful airplanes that attack him as he bestrides his mighty tower, roaring. But the analysts have it exactly backward. Political correctness is the biggest issue facing America today. Even Trump has just barely faced up to it. The ironic name disguises the real nature of this force, which ought to be called invasive leftism or thought-police liberalism or metastasized progressivism. The old-time American mainstream, working- and middle-class white males and their families, is mad as hell about political correctness and the havoc it has wreaked for 40 years — havoc made worse by the flat refusal of most serious Republicans to confront it.” {snip} Political correctness is not, as some might claim, just an effort to encourage niceness. As Gelernter notes, it’s an effort to control people. Like the Newspeak inGeorge Orwell’s 1984, the goal is to make it impossible for people to speak, or even think, unapproved thoughts. Of course, by limiting what people can think and say, political correctness has hollowed out America’s universities, cheapened and distorted its politics, and served (and this last is entirely intentional) to make those who favor traditional American values like free speech feel marginalized and at risk. (I saw someone on Twitter talking about “America-shaming” last week, and that term fits pretty well.) But as leftists like to say, you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. Almost as irritating to a lot of people, though, is the extent to which self-described “conservative” politicians, pundits and media organs have gone along. Part of this is because PC is often misleadingly sold as politeness, and elite American conservatives are suckers for etiquette. Part of it is because those conservative leaders move in an upper-middle-class environment where academic norms govern everyone, including them. But when “respectable” people won’t talk about things that a lot of voters care about, the less-respectable will eventually rise to meet the need. That’s what Trump’s doing. And a lot of people are cheering him on not so much because they’re fans of Trump personally as because they’re happy to see someone finally stand up to the PC bullies. Will electing Trump solve all the nation’s problems? Nope. But, as mentioned above, it will show that more than half the country rejects the culture of political correctness, and the political class that let it take over. And for many people, that’s reason enough. http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2016/05/31/donald-trump-politically-correct-speech-codes-column/85163810/ Glenn Harlan Reynolds, a University of Tennessee law professor and the author of The New School: How the Information Age Will Save American Education from Itself, is a member of USA TODAY's Board of Contributors.
