Newsweek looks into the Trump Organization and how it may factor into conflict-of-interest and national security issues if Donald Trump were to become President:

If Trump becomes the POTUS, he controls whether or not the FBI or DOJ does anything.

Good luck with that.

And given Obie's pulling the strings of both departments, good luck getting me to give a rat's ass what (if anything) Newsweek uncovers.

See how that works?
Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments
and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism.

Thanks Ax!
Do you think this article might have "just a smidge" of bias?
I canceled Newsweek years ago.
Perhaps with a few quotes, you might spot it:

Quote:
 

Trump...a sprawling business empire that has spread a secretive financial web across the world
... whose business interests will constantly jeopardize the security of the United States
... deep ties to global financiers, foreign politicians and even criminals

...Hillary Clinton bestowed benefits on contributors to the foundation in some sort of pay to play scandal when she was secretary of state, but that makes no sense because there was no "pay." Money contributed to the foundation was publicly disclosed and went to charitable efforts

You see that Trump's not in the Real Estate business anymore--he's in the (much more lucrative) celebrity business.

And private citizens don't have the same trumped up disclosure requirements that politicians have.
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

Well, you do have the advantage of having much experience saying "President Clinton" since 1993.

I would imagine he canceled it because it years ago became a propaganda tool for the democrat party.
