You would need brains to care.

All they have is what they hear on Fox News and hate radio to go by....

3. I think that it is impossible to sell lux real estate in America

And not cater to tax evading criminals from China, Russia, etc. It drives a significant portion of lux car sales in America too. If the US ever cracked down on this by relaying purchase price data back to the home countries, the US lux market would tank. Putin is worth 200 billion, more money than he could earn on the books in a thousand lifetimes. I guarantee that he own cars and real estate in America.

10 years ago not so much. There are Russians roaming around at Mar-a-Lago at the club and I believe a couple (at least) own apts in Trump Tower.

This claim of his is so easily refuted I can't understand why he'd even mention it.

Oh, wait ... that's right - he can't help himself.

Seems to be part of our race to the bottom. Become a tax shelter for the international oligarchy. No wonder foreign interests have gobbled up so many U.S. assets.

7:31 am is a fine time of day to begin unraveling.

Doing that at 3am well, that just makes a person seem unhinged.

Glad he waited til 7:30. That alone screams "gravitas"

amirite?

Nevertheless, rotflmao, at your post.

Just putting "gravitas" within a thousand feet of the thought of Trump is hilarious in itself.

I can barely stand to look at photos of that cretinous bastard, much less endure video and audio.

I despised him from well before his political career. Didn't even know much about him, but what from what I could see, he was and stood for everything I find objectionable in a person. Every single thing I've learned about him since then only serves to reinforce my revulsion.
