This is from a conversation that author James Dodson had with Donald Trump, and his son Eric, three years ago:Golf writer: "How are you getting $100M for a golf course?"— justin kanew (@justin_kanew) May 7, 2017
Eric Trump: "We get all the 💰we need from Russia."
https://t.co/HBuypFlFbg pic.twitter.com/NOL6QmhHa0
When the big day arrived, a dark, gray sky provided the first sign that all would not go as planned. Dodson was a little late arriving, and by the time he entered the Trump National Charlotte clubhouse, his host was already holding forth.
"Trump was strutting up and down, talking to his new members about how they were part of the greatest club in North Carolina," Dodson says. "And when I first met him, I asked him how he was — you know, this is the journalist in me — I said, 'What are you using to pay for these courses?' And he just sort of tossed off that he had access to $100 million."
$100 million.
"So when I got in the cart with Eric," Dodson says, "as we were setting off, I said, 'Eric, who’s funding? I know no banks — because of the recession, the Great Recession — have touched a golf course. You know, no one’s funding any kind of golf construction. It’s dead in the water the last four or five years.' And this is what he said. He said, 'Well, we don’t rely on American banks. We have all the funding we need out of Russia.' I said, 'Really?' And he said, 'Oh, yeah. We’ve got some guys that really, really love golf, and they’re really invested in our programs. We just go there all the time.' Now that was three years ago, so it was pretty interesting."
So not only have Russians invested heavily in Trump Tower, and bought a mansion for 55 million more than Trump paid for it, but now they are also the money behind his string of golf courses?
I swear every day we learn that Trump has more and more ties with the Russians.
How much more evidence do we really need that he was compromised?
And so The American Taxpayer pays Russia for trump to go golfing on his family golf courses full of debt. How many golf courses does trump foundation own or Russia owns again?
ReplyDeleteEric now denies all.
DeleteALL the tRumps lie, it is in their DNA.Do not even need lessons, just watch Agent Orange, and follow his lead. Deny, deny, deny unless someone is talking about how RICH daddy is.
DeleteThe Trumps are not very bright but Eric seems to be the one who opens his mouth too much and too often. He seems so eager to impress anyone around him with the family's great wealth (bored from Russians?) and their wily business acumen. All of this, complete with subsequent denials, makes Eric seem even dumber.
DeleteBeaglemom
He's definitely been laundering money for them for a while. That's pretty clear. They've been giving him loans that he, no way!, could repay, without liquidating his real estate holdings. I thought, over the past summer, that that has been what they had over him all along, that a deal was made that those loans would be forgiven if he did Putin's bidding.
ReplyDeleteJust a hunch.
But I don't doubt the sex tape allegations either.
I could definitely -- DEFINITELY -- see Trump wanting someone to pee on a bed just because Obama had slept in it. He clearly wears a gold-plated white sheet, if you know what I mean.
I've thought that all along inre laundering and forgiveness of debt. Shysters to the nth, all
Deleteof them, and I can't believe that we're the only ones who give a rip as our country is being sold down the river.
Yeah, no kidding. The Russian sanctions are probably costing Putin a buttload of money, personally. It's been speculated that he is the richest man in the world, worth about $200 billion, and it has been said that it is well known among the elite of Russia that their money is Putin's, and that he can take whatever he wants. (that might be the $200 billion.)
DeleteNot only are the sanctions costing them money in terms of drilling for oil, but the oligarchs, I heard on Fresh Air, are angry that they can't access their money, and, I kid you not, the wine collections that they stash in Switzerland. So…all of this might have been so that some rich pricks can get a hand on their special wine.
Trump is in debt to Russia for several golf courses.
ReplyDeleteJared is in debt to Russia for properties.
This family is in debt and this is why it is important to lie to americans about EVERYTHING.

ReplyDeletehttp://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/we-have-all-the-funding-we-need-out-of-russia
"It’s worth noting that Russia had invaded and later annexed the Crimean Peninsula in February 2014. Sanctions would come in March. Those certainly put a crimp in the business plans of anyone trading heavily on Russian money, as Trump was. We don’t know when this was in 2014. But in any case it may not have been clear yet, at least not to Eric Trump what impact this would have on the Trump Organization. The lifting of those sanctions and finding a rapprochement with Russia was a major theme of Trump’s entire campaign."
ALL FUCKING RIGHT THEN!!!
NOTHING TO SEE!!!
HILLARY'S EMAILS!!!
BENGHAZII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean...there no way the Orange Anus would have discussed a potential run at the presidency in 2016 with his Russian sugardaddies...like he did with the golf reporter...amirite?
DeleteOtherwise that shit should have been wired up fro the start!
IS IT TIME TO ARREST THEM YET???
Flynn declared that the United States does not need a “reckless president who believes she is above the law.”
The crowd immediately chanted “lock her up!” over and over and over. Flynn clapped in appreciation, said the words too, and declared, “You’re damn right! There’s nothing wrong with that!”"
ALSO TOO:
"“We’re saying that,” Flynn said, “because if I… did a tenth of what she did, I would be in jail today! So, Crooked Hillary Clinton, leave this race now!”
Watch above, via CNN."

Everybody calm the fuck down and stop assuming!
ReplyDeleteEric Trump said they get all the dough they want from Russia.
Have you noticed how fat Donald is?
Well he loves Russian Black Bread and he flies in Russian Black Bread dough all the time.
Russian Black Bread –
Combine the rye and white flours. Mix thoroughly (use a large bowl) 2-1/3 cups of the flour mixture, the sugar, salt, cereal, caraway seed, coffee, onion powder, fennel seed and un-dissolved dry yeast. Combine 2-1/2 cups of water, vinegar, molasses, chocolate and margarine in a saucepan.
Does Maleria bake this for him?? Maybe her mother does, she lives at tRump tower and splits her time between there and Mar-A-Lago. Her husband was a member of the Communist Party back home, so maybe HIS phone was bugged also? I seriously doubt they could afford this lifestyle without SOME help from somewhere.

GOD!
Just about every weekend President Trump takes off on Air Force One and spends around $4 million dollars to go to one of his Russian sponsored golf courses.
ReplyDeleteIs this where he gets his assignments from Putin via Boris & Natasha?
Yes he does. Remember, 'somehow', 'miraculously', one or more of those Russian oligarch just so 'happen' to be at the very same golf course this a$$hat goes - be it Mar Al Lago or any one of his other places (including last weekend!)

If the Ruskies are sponsoring everything for bankrupted Trump (his golf courses and Trump Tower), did they finance the Trump International Hotel around the corner from the White House?
ReplyDelete5:43: Three guesses! And anyone of the 'no' does not count!
DeleteMr. President, to distract America from Yates damaging and revealing testimony, we recommend nuking North Korea ASAP Monday morning. You need a huuugggeee shiny object to distract Congress and the American people.

Deleteyeah. I'm pleasantly surprised that there was no false flag over the weekend..but Monday morning is young....

...The Donald's financial-disclosure paperwork, released Wednesday by federal election officials, claim that Trump's 16 golf-related businesses are worth $550 million to more than $675 million. That's a big chunk of his net worth, which the filing said was at least $1.15 billion and which Trump himself says is about $10 billion....
.... The courses also look overvalued by other measures. Trump paid a reported $13 million for the Washington club and put $25 million more into renovations, with the revitalized course opening last month.
Eric Trump where did daddy get $38 million dollars to buy and renovate a golf course?
(article written July 2015)
Didn't realize it is illegal to have Russian investors? Can you please point out the law, Gryphen, where it is deemed illegal to have business dealing with Russians?
ReplyDeleteSeriously? You don't see a problem with this, after Trump claimed that he had no business dealings or ties with Russia?
DeleteOr that it makes the fact that the Russians helping him to win the election seem even more like collusion?
Oh wait, you must be a troll.
Because NOBODY is that stupid.
I can see Russia from my front porch!

Still the same question you didn't answer, what is the law that is broken by working with foreign investors Gryph?

DeleteIf you had been watching Rachel Maddow show you'd be up to speed. Watch her on the net and catch up. She explains exactly why you can't do business with the Russkie oligarchs.
Which other foreign country tried to sway our elections? Why does Russia have such a large stake in getting tRump into office? He is dumb as a stump, but greedy as HELL. His family is right there with him, hands held out. Grifters on a level never seen before in the WH.
DeleteWell 5:24 trumps owe lots of money. And when one owes lots of money to Russian mobs they must pay up. Now trump and stumps are lousy business people, they lie cheat and steal. Terrible salesman and awful actors. So Russia says lift the sanctions and employ our useful idiot friends in the usa, tillson, Flynn, manfart, and so many more. Russia has a agenda, its oil its mining its robotics, it all dangerous. Russians are sneaky little liars. Trumps likes liars. They bribe, extort, cheat, steal, lie to get what they want. They are the swamp and the toxic turds floating in it.
