It's pretty clear from your posts that you get the majority of your info from ridiculous right wing news sources, which would explain why you're oblivious to some of this. This bold is just irrelevant screeching. Trump's actions to benefit his family are in plain sight. Here's a link with some examples.

If Trump was "truly" in it for the country, and not himself and family, he wouldn't be charging taxpayers to stay at his properties, would use a blind trust, wouldn't have his kids in the white house, etc.

It’s obvious from my post that I use factual reporting regardless of source, and am far from oblivious.

Your gripe is essentially that Trump benefits from being a businessman; yeah, we know. The reason Democrats dropped their emoluments/conflict of interest impeachment angle is because they had no leg to stand on. Especially since the federal appeals court had swatted down identical Maryland and DC suits with prejudice as nothing more than political shenanigans.

And you really don’t understand blind trusts at all. Here’s another “ridiculous right wing news” source on the subject:
However, that’s not as easy as it sounds. “You typically cannot simply transfer existing assets into a blind trust. As a practical matter it’s likely a complete non-starter,” says Leslie Kiernan, a partner at law firm Akin Gump and a former Deputy White House Counsel under President Barack Obama. For the trust owner to be truly “blind” to his portfolio, the assets typically have to be liquidated first, Kiernan says. The cash can then be funneled into the trust, to be managed by an independent trustee approved by the Office of Government Ethics. Trump would not receive any information on what has been bought or sold with his money, though he could get reports on how much income the portfolio generated as a whole.

This means the New York billionaire would have to sell prized properties like Manhattan’s Trump Tower or Palm Beach’s Mar-a-Lago, and give control of his company to a virtual stranger instead of his children. Moreover, some of his holdings, such as his 30% stake in two office towers majority owned by real estate investment firm Vornado, cannot be sold unless he acquires his partner’s consent.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/v/s/www.forbes.com/sites/jenniferwang/2016/11/15/why-trump-wont-use-a-blind-trust-and-what-his-predecessors-did-with-their-assets/amp/%3fusqp=mq331AQFKAGwASA%253D&amp_js_v=0.1#ampf=

There is no constitutional requirement to sell ones “benefitting” businesses, but merely that there is no exchange or compromise of U.S. policy regarding what are otherwise goods and services exchanged for currency.

If it’s screeching to contrast Trumps bruising trade war and stance toward China, with Joe’s acquiescence and apparent self-dealing - yeah, guilty.

You’re a paragon of virtue.

It was pretty clear you had never even heard of some of the things mentioned. Of course, I'm sure you're well versed on Hunter Biden's laptop.

And you really don’t understand blind trusts at all.

Given his answer when asked about whether he would use a blind trust, neither does Donald Trump.

So he compromised and decided to just continue running his businesses? Do you also believe him when he says his kids do it without consulting him?

Nobody said there was. We're just laughing at the idea that Trump is some noble guy putting his own interests aside for the good of the country unlike the evil Joe Biden. He's not. He's constantly funneling taxpayer money into his properties and promoting his/his family's business interests. And that's not including stuff like this.

If it’s screeching to contrast Trumps bruising trade war and stance toward China, with Joe’s acquiescence and apparent self-dealing - yeah, guilty.

Given the conversation we were having, yes, it was irrelevant. And the 'standing up to China' is pretty clearly just bluster for the low information voters. When he's at his rallies, sure, he'll try to stoke up anti-China sentiment. When he's next to Xi, he's the mouse he always has been.

You’re a paragon of virtue.

Saw a text last night between Tucker and a friend where he said of course they made copies/ took pics. The point is he is being spied on. That's what tucker said. Apparently this was "top secretish" and Tucker and his producer in NY apparently hadn't told anyone about having the documents, or mailing them , other than maybe a couple of need to know people maybe...the "big name national shipping company" (,fedex?) Went through all their facilities and grilled personnel etc but all that was found was the empty envelope which had been torn open....Tucker never said that the documents were lost forever, he just pointed out that someone was spying on him/,them.. which we know with 100% certainty that the Obama Feds were spying on the Trump headquarters as well as tapping all phone lines...under false and illegal pretense.

This is getting crazier and crazier... missing documents.

But on a side note... it seems there is the ability to safely intercept letters from FedEx in this case, but in the case of Breonna Taylor, LEO can't seem to find the alleged drugs that were being shipped to Taylor's address without going out in a blaze of glory.

This dude and his entire family needs to be in witness protection...

His evidence and testimony should be enough to imprison Hunter Biden and impeach Joe, if he manages to get elected...

That makes him enemy no1 for the entire billion dollar machine that is the Dimwit party. Desperate folks will kill a man for pocket money...these multimillionaires can get him whacked easy.

What yall think? Seems like based on his testimony here....TB can testify against both Joe and Hunter to the Feds, in court, the senate and congress, you name it.. and he is a lifetime Democrat who has personally donated $12k to the Dimwit party, from a family of Dimwit donors...no way to paint this guy as a Trump hitman.

Pathetic.

The only "dirt" on Joe Biden is his son.

Think about that.

Pathetic.

“You know, I am not a big fan of special counsels, but if Joe Biden wins the presidency, I don’t see how you avoid one,” Senate Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) said. “Otherwise, this is going to be, you know, tucked away, and we will never know what happened. All this evidence is going to be buried.”

And what, precisely, is it that you contend Hunter Biden did for Joe Biden?

And please do keep in mind the "source"...

I tried asking what the allegation was a few days ago and got a bunch of deflections to the impeachment. Interested to see if they’ve got it sorted out. Only like 5 days left to get their **** together and build a coherent narrative.

Maybe when the dog craps out Tucker’s homework we’ll get it figured out.
