Trump Sold $35 Million Of Real Estate In 2018

I'm left wondering why another Trump smear piece is "breaking news."
DJT has always sold millions dollars of real estate but he wasn't even involved in the these particular transactions because he issued responsibility to his sons for day to day operations.
What is the major problem?

Perhaps, the continued tossing out of those "breaking news" smear pieces is based on hope...

That hope being... that some of them just might stick and will actually bring down A duly Elected President of The U. S or at least hinder him from doing his job.

It seems that LLC's are being questioned here. So, I provided the following information to one of the posters here.

So many of these type threads turn into conjecture fests.
Newsflash! Trump makes a lot of money and it's all because he loves himself some Putin.

:lol:

Umm, the SEC does not oversee real estate transactions

The SEC oversees private and public accounting reports and standards.

Funny conservatives didn't extend that option to Carter when he was president and they said it was a conflict of interest. Your hypocrisy is on display.

And Whitewater resulted in how long an investigation. Time for the House to start digging and issuing subpoenas. Same rule that applied to Bill applies to Rump.

You do realize that most of America lived under the precept that our elected leaders should always be free of conflicts of interest or even the appearance of conflicts of interest. To have conflicts of interests invites corruption (making choices that favor your interests over those of the electorate). Somehow we have given Trump a pass on this, which is troubling given that he his financial interests in nations that have traditionally be rivals or enemies of the US. We know that it is inevitable that the "pass" is going to come back to bite us.

As to Whitewater, the Clinton's involvement in that land deal preceded their days in Washington. If you remember, that was investigated and re-investigated with the best thing they could find in Monica Lewinsky. Sorry, once again, the Trump card beats the Hillary card as his actions are once again far, far more damning then those of Clintons.

You missed played the Clinton card, but you'll get the hang of the game.

If you shut down every coal power plant today, gas doesn't go to 8 dollars, nor natural gas to 28.

not for real estate sales

So when he says that he wasn’t running the show day to day, the SEC won’t care? That would make him a manager and not an investor.

Much of the $35 million profit came from one sale that fell under the auspices of HUD. Can you say "conflict of interests"?
Click to expand...

Where did you find what Trump sold for 35 million was all profit? And you do know he did and still owns businesses that are real estate related.

Then there is this bit of news, similar to the ways Russians have bought Trump properties in Miami and Palm Beach.

So, Trumps is in the business of buying and selling real estate and building, what would you expect? He's done deals all over the world.

I guess you could rally your liberal friends and impeach him.

Right. Keep telling yourself that. China would go belly up.

No. The SEC does not regulate real estate sales.

When did I say they regulated real estate sales. They regulate the reporting of real estate sales if under the heading of accounting of partnerships.

Not illegel at the time, but rather scummy Pence believing campaign donations are for his personal use.

Better check Pence out as well. He has a history of helping himself to campaign donations.

They were substantially passive investors in a failed real estate deal. There were 3 separate investigations each of which found no wrong doing on the part of the Clintons.

Passive investors do not get prosecuted in the real world. Their punishment is they lose money for making a bad investment.

Once again, the Hillary card always is much weaker than the Trump card.

Sounds like Trump and the building(s) in question. Except that Trump was smart enough to invest in profitable real estate deals instead of losers.

No one has accused anyone of anything here and conflict of interest has nothing to do with disclosures to the SEC

Try to not be incoherent.

Apparently nothing for them to check out either.
