Trump had hidden $20 Million loan while President to company linked to North Korea

https://news.yahoo.com/trump-had-hidden-19-8-125434457.html?soc_src=social-sh&soc_trk=fb&tsrc=fb

Donald Trump failed to disclose a $19.8 million loan from a company with ties to North Korea while he was president, Forbes reported Sunday, citing documents uncovered by the New York attorney general’s office.

Trump owed the money to L/P Daewoo while he was campaigning in 2016 and into his presidency, according to records. He didn’t list the debt in financial disclosure filings, as candidates and presidents are expected to do, Forbes reported.

The loan was paid off just over five months into his presidency. Forbes said the documents don’t specify who satisfied it.

What in the actual fuck? And paid in full, 5 months into his Presidency, immediately after he met with Kim Jong Un.

I feel like if you list the 100 biggest scandals in US Presidential history, Trump has 89 of the top 90. This would be the largest scandal in most Presidencies. Just a really big deal. No wonder he fell in love with Kim Jong Un, Un paid off his loans for him after the met. INSANE!!!

Another way to put this, PRESIDENT TRUMP TOOK A $20 MILLION BRIBE FROM A FOREGIN LEADER WHILE PRESIDENT!!!

I wonder a lot about the missing contents of those empty folders marked “Classified” the FBI found in his possession.

that Trump took a bribe.

'Forbes said the documents don’t specify who satisfied it.'

Please, let's stop imitating MAGAts by presenting speculation as fact.

That his loans were forgiven or paid off almost exactly when he met with Kim Jong Un and fell in love with him?

Coincidences take a lot of planning.

nothing more as far as we know now. As I said, it's speculation, not fact.

BTW, coincidences don't take a lot of planning or anything else - they sometimes just happen.

In Korea, the family name is first.

But yeah, this is another "ethics are for the little people" thing.
