In previous cases they at least tried to cover it up, these guys do it broad daylight. Just like the Clinton's with their speaking fees, but much worse. (A reference to a Violent Femmes song)

Trump knows good looking women. I dont think anybody would say that about Chelsea Clinton, eh? Not even that hound dog, BJ.

Wow! You think he payed her a great compliment? I don't think any decent father would have said such a thing publicly to another person about his own daughter. That's what I think.

No, that's just not right. How about this? Is this a 'great compliment' too?

We've had the ZTE thing and the Malaysia loan thing. And now this. I know people here will argue that these are all just coincidences and nothing more. But the way they always seemed to be 'coincidentally' followed by changes in US policy is getting a little seedy looking. May be time for an ethics commission to break out a roll of paper towels and wipe off the lipstick to see if there is a pig under there somewhere.

Does the pig have a perfect smoky eye?

What do you mean? That we went from a trade war with China, then a state owned company invested into one of Trump's business deals, then we stopped talking about Trade War with China and all of a sudden Trump is looking to end sanctions against ZTE which sells to NK and Iran against our contract with them, and then all of a sudden Ivanka's business gets a nice bump from China's government. I'm sure it's all on the up and up. Nothing to see here.

China is obviously part of the deep state.

Trying to trick the trumps into doing something incriminating so Hillary can be president once again!
 
Re: China approves 13 new Ivanka Trump trademarks in 3 months

I am glad to see Ivanka getting some love somewhere, she sure deserves it, and she sure gets little from too many Americans.

It's not Malaysia, it's Indonesia. But yes, I'm not particularly worried about Ivanka, but the Indonesia loan / ZTE timeline does not pass the smell test.

Mycroft said:
Now...do your homework and answer this question: What other countries have completed deals with the Chinese in the last 3 months? What connection do you find between them and Trump?

Or...do you think Ivanka should just shut her business down because she might work to get a deal in the international market?

Hey...I know...she should make deals with Iran. Now THAT would show there's no family connections to her deals, right?

Better yet...stop fantasizing about nasty old Trump. You'll increase your credibility factor.

She should make a damn choice - be part of the administration and a valued advisor to POTUS OR a business woman. Pick ONE.

I don't have anything against the woman, but I also haven't seen anything from her to deserve my "love." What has she done for the country besides be a member of the lucky sperm club, born wealthy and pretty?

There's a guy locally who started a shelter to bring the homeless off the streets, lots of them veterans, get them sober, and to learn how to live productive lives who's done far more to deserve my "love" than she has. Right now he's got about 200 guys in residences, getting treatment, getting better, and it doesn't matter if they have any money or can work - they all get to stay. Been doing it since 1991.

You're right the Chinese 500 million dollar loan to project featuring a Trump golf course and hotels is Malaysia. But Ivanka has a Malaysia problem as well that involves the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Vancouver.

CNN: Malaysian developer's business deals with Ivanka Trump under FBI scrutiny
NATION

PETALING JAYA: The business dealings between Ivanka Trump (pix) and one of Malaysia's richest scions, Tiah Joo Kim, are being investigated by the United States' Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), CNN reports.

Quoting a former and a current US official, CNN reported on Thursday that the FBI is scrutinising the negotiations and financing surrounding the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Vancouver.

The US$360mil (RM1.4bil) Trump tower was developed by 37-year-old Tiah, the son of tycoon Datuk Tony Tiah Thee Kian.

The younger Tiah is the CEO of his family-owned property development company TA Global Bhd and its Canadian-based Holborn Group.

CNN reported that Holborn Group is backed by TA Enterprise chairman Tony Tiah, a man they said has "a chequered business history", including securities laws violations and false statements to the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE).

The 63-storey Trump International Hotel and Tower, featuring a trademarked Ivanka Trump spa, was jointly developed by TA Global Bhd and Holborn Group, and opened in February 2017, just after Donald Trump took office as US president.

During negotiations, Tiah reportedly bonded with Ivanka's husband Jared Kushner but negotiated directly with her over details of its development.

The FBI's scrutiny into Tiah's development comes as its special counsel Robert Mueller investigates allegations that Kushner conspired in the Russian tampering of the 2016 United States presidential election that led to Donald Trump's win.

Ivanka is also the special advisor to president Trump while Kushner is his senior adviser and also his son-in-law.

Not while acting in the capacity of a high government official she doesn't. Especially one with direct access to a President who just happens to be her father. See? This is the kind of problems nepotism coupled with a lack of proper divestiture can create. maybe this why so many other governments, such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, etc have approached Trump administration officials and or family members bearing gifts. They see a soft target they can exploit to in effect purchase a US foreign policy that will be favorable to them

There really is NOTHING illegal in profiting off the presidency at least, I'm not sure how or why that could or should be true, but unfortunately it is, but ifany kind of favor is returned, then we might have an issue, sure looks the case tome, but Mueller time iscoming,Ican wait formy tasty drink....

Pay for play used to be bad. When Trump was suckering the easily duped, I mean.

His supporters will defend this. To the death. And meanwhile, all over the world, the people who have thinking skills see this for what it is - pay for play. Nothing more, nothing less.
