Pretend I posted links to all the entities involved in the housing bubble, the automotive industry bailouts, Volkwagen, etc. I don't think Trump will be one of the exceptions who actually does time.

I don't know. Someone posted that video in the GBS thread I made for the train crash.

There's a Facebook link in the Youtube description, and the video was posted to it 19 hours ago (maybe 20 now).

It's kinda weird.

Corporations get away with so much stuff because its just constant, little infractions that add up. Its about a culture of being pieces of poo poo instead of outright Enron's outright fraud with paper trails to prove it.

Nearly all of our law enforcement is focused on catching more concrete crimes like drugs and people stealing physical objects. As long as you don't cheat the IRS you can get away with pretty much anything unless someone decides to report you. Most times that just fucks the whistleblower and the company merely gets fined if anything.

In the election where civilization could've used a strong print media, it's funny that print media is the least paid-attention to thing nowadays.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2016/09/29/dont-vote-for-donald-trump-editorial-board-editorials-debates/91295020/

USA TODAY posted:

In the 34-year history of USA TODAY, the Editorial Board has never taken sides in the presidential race. Instead, we’ve expressed opinions about the major issues and haven’t presumed to tell our readers, who have a variety of priorities and values, which choice is best for them. Because every presidential race is different, we revisit our no-endorsement policy every four years. We’ve never seen reason to alter our approach. Until now.

This year, the choice isn’t between two capable major party nominees who happen to have significant ideological differences. This year, one of the candidates — Republican nominee Donald Trump — is, by unanimous consensus of the Editorial Board, unfit for the presidency.

Also, the Trump campaign is quoting Breitbart, who is quoting Sputnik (Russian state) media. This election :cripes:

Also apparently trump's foundation is not properly registered in new york and if the AG wants to pursue it can force them to refund everything they've ever collected in the state. https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...59373&tid=ss_tw

The latest of which about Donald Trump's foundation not being certified. Trump is going to bring up the Clinton Foundation during the next debate and Hilldawg is going to turn that around so quickly to Trump and drop it on his head it'll be hilarious.

How the gently caress do you override a veto when Obama says, "Guys if you do this it will result in exactly these problems on this list right here that I am giving to you right now" then cry about all the problems that you had no idea would possibly happen and blame Obama for them?

Lack of communication? Really that's the best excuse you have? It was on national loving news for days before. I've seen three year olds lie better than this about who broke the lamp.

Donald Trump denies Russians responsible for the downing of MH17 and maybe we should just stop worrying about it

From article posted:

"It's a long ways away. We have to get back to making America great again," he said. "It's terrible, but we really probably won't know for sure. And you'll probably never find out. There are only a few people that know. And you know one of them could be (Russian President Vladimir) Putin, frankly, and we know one thing: He's not going to be talking about it."

To be fair, I dont think this bill was a hill the Democrats wanted to die on. No one is going to hear "this could get complicated", just endless soundbites of "xxx supported Saudi Arabia over 9/11 victims, vote for <republican shitbag here> today!".
