that's called business, by the way

that makes him smart

 

[NeonBlack]

perfect

 

[TheCochese]

This week is Trump's Cuban Sniffle Crisis.

 

[D4Danger]

you don't have to pay taxes on illegal trade so it's doubly smart.

 

[Dr.Acula]

At this point I think the greatest punchline to this joke would that - because of the raised attention and scrutiny that running for public office brings - Trump gets prosecuted for some shady back door deals and catches some serious shit from the Fed when all is said and done.

I feel like that's going to happen. A lot of career politicians skate because they have friends in Washington, or they know how to play the game, they can make deals, or push back with threats themselves. Trump's a tourist in Washington. Things... don't look too hot for him should he find himself on the outside looking in. Certainly a lot of loyal Republicans aren't happy that he's failed to raise money for the RNC, that he's not hired people from within the party to prominent positions, that he leapfrogged the line and gone straight for the presidential nomination.

The GoP will want to send the message that outsiders get buried.

 

[sturgboski]

That's called being smart. That money would not have been put to good use by the US government anyway.

 

[B-Dubs]

 

[johnsmith]

Don't forget that he also tried to do business with Gaddaffi.

Donald Trump tried to raise money from the regime of Libyan dictator Muammar al-Qaddafi two years before a 2011 revolution toppled the brutal leader, according to four people with knowledge of the effort. Trump even tried to set up a meeting with the tyrant himself, three of the sources say, to explore business ventures — despite the Libyan leader’s notorious sponsorship of terrorism that killed scores of Americans.

 

[Dai101]

that makes him smart

 

[Plinko]

How does he not go to jail for this, actually? Is that not pretty clear cut illegal?

He is rich.

 

[Doc Holliday]

ugh I just posted this lol in poligaf!! you're too fast!

 

[Morts]

This should end him, but plenty of things should've already and didn't.

What happens if Trump gets convicted of something after winning but before inauguration? Are we stuck with Pence?

 

[B-Dubs]

You beat me to it in there from the look of it.

How sad is it that this isn't even the first Trump scandal where that gif applies?

 

[Shadybiz]

"SAYS WHO??"

 

[FloydtheFathead]

This week is Trump's Cuban Sniffle Crisis.

Not bad..

 

[jmdajr]

Remember when screaming at a rally was enough to doom you?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

He wouldn't be convicted prior to Inauguration Day. And even if he was, he would have to be formally impeached by the House and convicted in the Senate to be forcibly removed from office.

So let's say he gets elected and then decides not to accept the office. What happens then? Well, that's not really well-established.

[Dai101]

He is rich.

Not as much as he would want us to believe he is.

 

[Vestal]

Right now at Trump Headquarters Electoral Map.

 

[MIMIC]

Trump's not a fan of laws.

 

[Eternal Gamer]

I can heard Trump's voice in my head saying "that's good business", just like he said about the 2008 crisis.

 

[btrboyev]

None of this matters. Trump said it himself. He could kill someone and still not lose his base.

 

[Lunar15]

Is it bad that I look at this and go "oh, this means nothing"?

At what point did we get to where treason is like "oh this means nothing" in a presidential election?

Light treason, light treason.

New Hampshire.

 

[Firebrand]

So the Trump tour didn't just visit Little Havana but Big Havana as well. Really trying to connect with the Hispanic crowd.

 

[Makonero]

would have squandered it

 

[Rabbi_Vole]

I'm convinced shit like this is being sat on until it's too late to change the head of the ticket in many states in time for voting.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Seriously though. "Law and Order candidate" breaks the law.

To be a fly on the wall at Clinton Campaign HQ right now.

 

[Krejlooc]

This next debate is going to be amazing lol

 

[Link]

Pretty sure we're already past that point.

 

[Spiral Insanity]

That cover is brutal.

lol so true

 

[Captin Quacker]

Light treason, light treason.

Heavy emails tho

 

[Lenz44]

Has this man finally done everything that ever other sunk presidential campaign has been accused of? The only story needed to complete this is him murdering someone

His supporters would say that person deserved it and did it for business reasons. Also $hillary murdered people too so it's even.

 

[Escape Goat]

He admitted to tax evasion on live TV the other night, pretty sure this guy could pull out a gun and shoot someone during a debate and nobody would do anything.

Lots of companies don't pay corporate income taxes. Its our wonderful system at work. Yay burden for the middle class!

 

[BotoxAgent]

Light treason, light treason.

Wrong. I have the biggest treason. The best treason. The best. No one does treason bigger than me. I make great deals.

 

[Rabbi_Vole]

I can heard Trump's voice in my head saying "that's good business", just like he said about the 2008 crisis.

As did Elizabeth Warren

The moment he loses, republicans will turn on him so fast your head will spin. Believe me.

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

Trump for Prison

 

[Kurdel]

Not even the first time in this campaign that gif was 100% appropriate

What a cycle

 

[Log4Girlz]

That gif is appropriate for nearly every new piece of news each day.

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

It's exactly how Dubya is now. I'm sure in some Republicans mind, he's already classified as a RINO.

 

[Escape Goat]

It's exactly how Dubya is now. I'm sure in some Republicans mind, he's already classified as a RHINO.

RINO?

 

[andythinkpad]

I am sure there will be a few more "October surprises." This is small potato.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I am sure there will be a few more "October surprises." This is small potato.

they aren't really surprises at this point

 

[AYF 001]

Well, Trump has bragged about taking money from Muammar Gaddafi...

Yeah but Crooked Hillary heard about Donald's incredible deal with him, so she had Lybia invaded to stop him from building the most bigly luxurious hotel in all of Africa.

Though I can only imagine the fodder for the next debate gets juicier by the day.

 

[exmachina64]

Anyone seen The Manchurian Candidate?
