Christie, Giuliani on Tax Bombshell: Trump A 'Genius' Politico
Trump's boys club hunkers down around Trump paying no taxes for roads, bridges, social security benefits, the military and all other federal programs. He's a 'genius'!!!
"There's no one who's shown more genius in their way to maneuver around the tax code," New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said in an interview on "Fox News Sunday."
Trump's campaign was playing defense after a Saturday New York Times story revealed hat Trump reported a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax returns, allowing him to avoid paying federal income taxes for as long as 18 years. Trump has refused to release his tax returns.
"The headline should have been, 'Donald Trump takes advantage of legal provisions in tax code,'" former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani said on CNN's "State of the Union."
Group Apologizes for Giuliani's 'Unscripted' Remarks At Awards Dinner; Trump's Attack Dog Loses Major Upcoming Keynote Speech AOC
Is the Trump campaign in meltdown mode? Top Trump adviser and surrogate Rudi Giuliani spoke at a recent Commercial Finance Association event -- the 40 Under 40 dinner at New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel. A formal apology was issued for his appalling remarks where -- like his big buddy Donald Trump -- the former New York mayor went totally off script.
Whether or not it was these exact remarks that precipitated the cancellation of Giuliani's upcoming keynote address at a conference held by the International Council of Shopping Centers is unknown.
While the apology for Giuliani's Waldorf Astoria speech did not include his specific remarks, one attendee reported: “Rudy talked about immigration and made a really, really inappropriate comment about the quote-unquote Mexicans in the kitchen at the Waldorf,” the attendee said. “It was bad. You could hear a pin drop. I think he was looking for applause.”
Note that with all the accusations against Hillary Clinton over her $200,000 speaking fees, Rudy Giuliani earned more than $11 million in paid speech in the 13 months directly prior to kicking off his Republican presidential campaign in February 2007. Did anyone in the media care? No. ~ Anne
When Youth Violence Spurred 'Superpredator' Fear New York Times
A self-proclaimed mansplainer Bernie Bros who refuses to vote for Hillary for countless reasons wrote today that she 'coined' the term 'superpredator'. SHE DID NOT!!!!!!!!
If Hillary Clinton is guilty of anything, it's being her wonk self when she testified about youth violence in America and used the false and unfortunate term 'superpredator'.
The term 'superpredator' was first used by an inmate but then incorporated into the research work of "John J. DiIulio Jr., then a political scientist at Princeton. Chaos was upon us, Mr. DiIulio proclaimed back then in scholarly articles and television interviews. The demographics, he said, were inexorable. Politicians from both major parties, though more so on the right, picked up the cry. Many news organizations pounced on these sensational predictions and ran with them like a punt returner finding daylight."
I'm pulling together a FB note on this entire topic because we have millennials everywhere believing that Hillary Clinton coined the term 'superpredator'. SHE DID NOT!!!
This 2014 article and fantastic, informative video tells the story of how this deadly superpredator theory came into being. ~ Anne
I Wrote That I Despised Hillary Clinton. Today I Publicly Take It Back. Huffington Post
"When Hillary Clinton became the presumptive Democratic nominee, I was distraught. Months before I had written about her on Huffington Post, explaining that I despised her not for her gender — as some of her supporters accused — but for her hawkishness, her center-left policies, her husband’s crime bill that incarcerated so many people of color, her support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership, and her inability to get progressive on climate change policy.
I’ve spent almost every waking hour of every day following this election, reading about Hillary, Donald Trump, both parties’ platforms, and the under-qualified Libertarian and Green Party candidates running. During these months of obsessing over my choice, I’ve watched my position slowly shift. I’ve felt myself start advocating for Hillary more than advocating a vote against Trump, culminating in last night’s debate when she finally, totally, completely won me over.
In an election that features one of the most well-documented liars and scam artist businessmen to ever run for public office, much of the attention has been on him — how we can’t put him in office, give him keys to a nuclear warhead, trust him in the most powerful position in the world. Some of it has been more positive: how he’d turn the system on its head, be a Washington outsider, completely rewrite the script. While it’s easy to make the case for voting against Trump, it occurred to me during the debate last night how much we’ve taken Clinton for granted.
Let’s start with a simple but important position: Hillary Clinton is the most qualified person to ever run for president.
{. . . }
All this work, and what did Clinton get? She got an actual smug, young journalist named Isaac Saul writing about how I despised her, when I hardly knew the depth of her accomplishments, when I was clinging to the pipe dream of a Bernie Sanders presidency that may have never been in the cards, when my own father got ignored while he tried his best to talk some sense into me.
Secretary Clinton, I’m sorry. And I retract my previous position of hatred and angst towards you. You have made mistakes, some of them grave, and some of them unforgivable. Unfortunately, that comes with decades of life in the public eye, pressure and microphones in your face. But you have also accomplished far more in your life as a public servant than just about anyone that’s run for this office, and certainly far more than I ever will. When November rolls around, you’ll have my vote.
And you’ll get it enthusiastically."
