Don't suppose you bothered to check any of the dozens of other links. Maybe just this once, stop trying to just volley me and actually check the damn content.

I went deep into the content. Observe.

So this deal (which was cancelled) means that Trump violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (assuming that all of the assumptions that we made to get to this point aren't just wishful thinking).

I'm here to help.
Sometimes you can legitimately be wrong, just like how *******s can legitimately be right and dicks at the same time. It is a baffling idea, I am aware.

It's how I saw the points of the article. I'm glad that's you think I am hilarious though.

That Trump broke the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. I've stated my reasons and I don't want to get dizzy going in circles. Please actually prove me wrong in your own words, I would really enjoy that because it would be like a respectful discussion.

Be precise in how you are right, that is what is known as the burden of proof when you are making a claim.

Right about what? Please point to where I made the claim that Trump broke the Foriegn Corrupt Practices Act. I'm just posting articles. Doesn't mean I subscribe to every damn word in them.

The whole Baku thing stunk to high heaven. He only backed out after he won the election. And it wasn't just branding. He was going to have his own hotel included as part of the deal.

Do you guys just enjoy arguing so much with me that you lose sight of the forest because the tree with my name on it gets in your way?

Source please. You've yet to provide one that backs this sentence up.

You ask for a source yet your gun is already loaded ready to poke holes in it.

Donald Trump

Quote:
It’s not clear how much money Trump made from the licensing agreement, although in his limited public filings he has reported receiving $2.8 million. (The Trump Organization shared documents that showed an additional payment of two and a half million dollars, in 2012, but declined to disclose any other payments.) Trump also had signed a contract to manage the hotel once it opened, for an undisclosed fee tied to the hotel’s performance.

Guess I'll have to take the word of someone who thinks you can profit from a cancelled business deal.

Jesus Christ. Just stop it.

Do you think he would have cancelled the deal if he'd lost the election? He won the election on November 8th and took a whole month before he decided he should back out of the Baku deal.

Pay attention: INTENT.

Again, you're being an ******* just to be an *******. You asked for a source. I provided one. Then you shifted gears.
