Ivanka Trump has a lot of business dealings with China. I'm sure Donald had heard of that, he is quite aware of Ivanka and once as president tweeted a slam against Nordstrom for they didn't want to run with Ivanka stuff. His children run his world-wide business, Trump allegedly gets regular briefings on them. He has an active unpublicized Chinese bank account and it appears he paid way more taxes there than back home. Also, his son-in-law is a big part of his administration and sold a deficient scyscraper to Qataris right when there was some diplomatic trouble with them, only for these troubles to disappear soon thereafter. Trump doubled the fees to his golf course, diplomats prefer to stay in Trump hotels so the president might be more friendly towards them, Mike Pence and staff are directed to stay and pay for Irish Trump resorts. Trump allegedly asked the british ambassador to get the British Open on one of his golf courses. At one time, the only bank that would deal with Donald Trump was Deutsche Bank, which is foreign and quite involved with Russian black money. Trump is on pictures with Epstein, or with the foreign agent lady that ran the massage parlor Robert Kraft got his stuff massaged in, or with Lev Parnas. Trump ran a scam university and had to settle over that in court. His kids had to go through mandatory training on how to run a charity, for they ran it quite improperly. The Eric Trump foundation was found to funnel donor money to Trump businesses. The Donald Trump foundation bought oversized paintings of Donald Trump, signed Tim Tebow helmets and whatnot. All these things happened, could be seen as a way bigger deal than whatever Hunter or Jim or Joe or whatever Biden did while Joe was not in office (for one, many of these things take place with Trump very much in office), are actually well documented, partly by the courts, and you can see quite clearly how poco loco nuts people go or don't go over all of this. Do these things get mentioned, aside from FOX, sure. Is it 24/7 screaming outrage, no. Your implication doesn't hold much water and this is not mere speculation.
- So if now some former business partner of say Don jr. were to come out and claim Donald senior was involved in his businesses and lied about it? Even if most people were to believe that guy, most people also wouldn't be all that surprised, for you could change this story with any of the other ones listed and Trump lieing really got old news at this point. What's pretty certain though is that people like you would immediately call it a nothingburger and point out how untrustworthy the media is and how gullible and hate-driven everyone who believes this whole saga is. That's what would happen.
We will have to agree to disagree.
