I like the guy.  No chance in hell he will come close to winning the GOP nomination.

If he did . . . the Democrats will paint him as an "Uncle Tom", beholden to white privilege and white supremacist ideology . . . and his white masters' biddings.

Al Sharpton wore a wire for the Feds, because a house negro's got to do what a house negro's got to do. Makes no difference at all which plantation you happen to be on.



I know how much you love Fox News, Duchess, but please watch until 00:20, where Sharpton claims he's not a "rat". Guess that means he did it because he loved helping the man keep the streets clean.

Chris Christie at his first campaign event said "Jared Kushner & Ivanka Kushner walk out of the White House and months later get $2 billion from the Saudis--you think it's because he's some kind of investing genius or do you think it was because he was sitting next to POTUS for 4 years doing favors for the Saudis?

Hehehe. Watching them eat each other over the next several months is going to be delicious.

It was invested, it's not like they just gave him the money, they are expecting it AND more back. It does look a bit fishy as he only had a half a billion from other INVESTORS.

Mark, it's shady because no one views him as having any investing prowess. The panel that performed due diligence for the Saudi fund came to the conclusion that no one in their right mind would give him a cent. They were deeply concerned about his inexperience and concluded that the Kingdom would be responsible for the investment AND the risk and thought that Kushner's firm was "unsatisfactory in all aspects". It's the panel's job to protect the murdering Prince's money, the Kingdom's money, and the Prince overruled them and gave the money anyway. That is not how business is conducted, particularly business that involves two billion dollars.

I agree it looks shady, if the price of us looking the other way for the murder was 2 billion dollars they all should hang and that includes Trump.

Do any of you who have heard Robert Kennedy Jr. speak have an opinion on what he has to say?

Isn't that that same observation and criticism, regarding Hunter Biden . . . that the aforementioned media outlets ignore to report?

His nomination to AMTRAC's Board, without sufficient expertise in a business to oversee its policies and assure they align with their goals.  (Thanks, Daddy!)

Same with a position on the Ukrainian oil company's board . . . Burisma.  Again . . . no experience in the oil and gas industry.  (Thanks, Daddy!)

And speaking of investments . . . how many billions from the Chinese to his company Rosemont Seneca . . . wasn't it 3 billion? (Rosemont Seneca boasted they had a 15 billion dollar investment portfolio).  I'm not aware that Hunter was an investment guru or had any training as one.  (Thanks, Daddy!)

Goose and gander.

Except the attack on Kushner . . . that's strictly Trump and Jew bashing.

I think it's questionable any time someone with no experience is put in a position of power.

I don't think I've ever bashed a Jew, but I'd be open to changing that for a Kushner.

He doesn't hate Trump and doesn't love pharma, which makes him a neo-nazi insurrectionist in the world of corporate politics.

I think what he has to say regarding his candidacy -- which is what this thread is about -- has quite a lot to do with corporate politics.

He's got some fresh ideas, whether or not they're practical I'm not sure. One that I think is, would be restoring integrity to science. Ending the public-private partnership would go a long way to achieving that objective.
