    I read that article. Someone on the inside mailed it to them in secret, no? Gotta wonder what's up with that.

    What I found a most delicious hypocrisy was his complaint that half of Americans pay no federal income tax when he doesn't either.

    Honestly, I don't support the income tax, I don't think it should exist. And under different circumstances, sans the wicked hypocrisy, I wouldn't care if he zeroed out his tax burden or not. But to hear him complain about something he's guilty of himself is stomach-churning.

    Were I his opponent, I'd dig into all the properties for which he's secured licensing / permits to build in cities throughout the U.S. that fell through and were written off as a loss. He has a penchant for procuring properties, accepting investments on the pretense they'll break ground within two years, then walking away from them completely for one reason or another and all without ever offering his own capital.

    Thank you for your very thoughtful and helpful analysis FNR. I'd vote for you in a heartbeat because YOU HAVE A PLAN. More than just attack/insult/disparage/demean. You have a plan. I wonder what other unsavory unbelievable things we will learn about this man before it's over? Happy Tuesday m'dear! :)

    He 'gambled' on casinos and lost.
