President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Maybe....but I hope you're not saying that because of the wiki dump.

It's clear which side the Kremlin is favoring. :D

This whole blaming the Russians thing reminds me of when I caught my ex girlfriend cheating on me (saw her texts). She actually had the audacity to tell me that I betrayed her trust by reading her texts! I was more concerned with what I read, believe it or not.

Really don't care if it's the Russians behind the leak, or, some 400 lb hacker in his basement as Donald put it. The content in the emails is what matters.

Actually, the government has been reading our emails for years. This is only fair, isn't it?

****, they were using gmail? Maybe it's the NSA leaking them, they probably have all of Hillary's emails in a binder.

From my perspective BOTH matter.

I guess I'm not really surprised by anything in those emails so it doesn't really move me that much.

Now assuming the Russians have a preference in this election, the question is "WHY"?

Yeah, that actually does concern me. :dontknow:

Agreed actually, I've been underwhelmed by the emails so far. Assange had been hyping them up, he was acting like he had a video of Hillary murdering someone. They've been tame so far. Aside from some Bernie diehards (I know national nurses united won't be endorsing Hillary), I don't think there's anything on there that will change anyone's votes.

As to your second question, I think it's pretty clear. Trump appears to have a more isolationist foreign policy. Russia would love that, and it would be in their best interests. Hillary is extremely hawkish. She and the neocons seem to be aggressively anti-Russia. You saw the interview with Putin's advisor yesterday, where he said "vote trump for peace, vote Hillary for nuclear war"? Hyperbole of course but...

Quite a battle going on here. The media could have released Trump's various sex stories months ago but it looks like they waited for him to win the nomination and then decided to dump them right before the election.

On the other side wikileaks is doing the same thing with the emails so everything is coming out at the same time. Wow

I think he's cementing his brand in the minds of this new market of consumers (his base) for years to come. Look for Trump boots, golf clubs, jeans, wine, point and shoot video games, condoms, Trump Taj Mahal home version, etc. to be sold exclusively at Walmart. I always said this was all about branding.

Speaking of branding, his hotel is apparently already hurting, according to a New York Magazine article:

Donald Trump’s D.C. Hotel Shows His Brand Is Sinking Along With His Poll Numbers

Tower of Sour



Not surprised. He routinely exaggerates his business success.

He sunk a lot of money into the Doral resort and the reviews have been mixed. Business isn't exactly booming there and they lost the PGA Tour event due to his comments about hispanics. They are actually moving the tourney to Mexico lol. Doral has held a tour event for as long as i can remember.

He is also getting sued by members of his club in Jupiter.
