  1. Trump says he knows “nothing” about QAnon….. But then says “I know they are against Pedophilia”…!!!..This speaks volumes about Trump’s dishonesty.

  2. “under levered” eh?? Well…it’s actually “under leveraged” someone tell this Wharton School graduate, who hides his school transcripts more than his tax returns, he’s a moron and a terrible failure at every business venture.

    How does someone go bankrupt with a casino? You have to be a real moron to bankrupt a casino. It’s unheard of. It doesn’t happen.

    1. It does if you are trump!!!!…after all he can do things other people cannot do better than any one else!!!!who knew?

    2. MSNBC ARE SELL OUTS!! NBC (MSNBC parent company) decided to give in and air Trump’s townhall DURING Biden’s, and MSNBC decided to air Trump’s INSTEAD of Biden’s!!! Who cares about democracy. If you want REAL progressive news, check out David Pakman.

    2. @Eva P I am long time viewer of David Pakman and he has been extremely strong with the idea that Biden must win

  3. If his debts aren’t due to foreign lenders, and everything is on the up-and-up, then WHY has he still not released his taxes??? He’s had four years to prove that he’s legit but he still won’t do it. Why? There’s no reason other than to HIDE something that he doesn’t want the public to see.

    2. @Jon doe Duh! Maybe they haven’t committed any! Stop believing Trump’s every word.
      Hint: If Trump moves his lips he is lying

    3. @Jon doe Trump ordered Barr to investigates Obama, Clinton and Biden and the investigation was cluded more a week ago. You will probably never see the report because it exonerated them. The prosecutor, John Bash, who carried out the investigation didn’t even bother to write a summary because it was such a nothing burger.

  4. He is a definite security threat to America!! I mean, he’s in Putin’s pocket but aside from that, owing $400 million would be a security threat for everyone!!!! I wouldn’t be able to get a government security clearance (I worked for govt for 32 years and had Top Secret clearance) if I owed that much money!!!!

  5. I’m sorry this should have been done before he was ever even able to run for president. Debt of this amount is a clear conflict of interest and should automatically disqualify him and anyone. This is an embarrassment to our government and our country that we are even in this position.

    1. He was a unindicted (at the time), co-conspirator and ran to take shelter in that office. Unlike most of his plans this one paid off. I suspect because it was taken care of by others and not him.
      I find it funny he’s actually sitting there trying to say that it isn’t he who owes Russia, it’s Russia who owes him. Because he took their money as a favour. What the F?
      He’s also mixing up personal debt with business debt, to further muddy the waters. He’s a filthy liar, nothing more.

  6. This man is nutcase he lies so much he doesn’t know if he’s coming or going this man got police and soldiers to storm peacefull protesters attack the press when push an old man down so hard blood was pouring I totally understand that looting can not be allowed but for a photo shot at a church holding a bible just rediculas

    1. Yep and now he’s trying to say he doesn’t actually owe Russia, Russia owes him. You have to be pretty stupid to listen to a word that comes out of that orange liar’s cake hole.

    2. that bible by the way was upside down ! a point worth noting . I’m not saying he is satanic just that it didn’t mean anything to him, it was just a photo op. to gain the evangelical vote. much like when he was some 40 min. late in addressing the nation so he could appear to emerge from a white light coming from his office. they waited till the sun was beaming through the windows to start simply for the effect.

    3. @SkyGemini he can spin that because it’s a Russian bank and not the gov. directly. notice he didn’t mention China , that bank is directly owned by the Gov.

  7. I like presidents that aren’t 400mill in debt.. how could we have foreseen that he would have such a debt. No he’s not a man that has bankrupt so many of his own businesses, look the other way…

  8. “400 million dollars is not much”, keep that in mind, all you “white-Trump-voters-without-a-college-degree”. That’s an amount you would never ever get hold of, not in 400 million years.

    1. MSNBC ARE SELL OUTS!! NBC (MSNBC parent company) decided to give in and air Trump’s townhall DURING Biden’s, and MSNBC decided to air Trump’s INSTEAD of Biden’s!!! Who cares about democracy. If you want REAL progressive news, check out David Pakman.

    2. You don’t understand real estate if you don’t know what good debt is. Clearly you don’t have a real estate portfolio or know how to have good debt work for you. Not all debt is bad debt…especially in real estate. A lot of intolerance and lack of knowledge I see on these threads. Very sad people that people let the media trick them.

    3. Totally agree with you. Colleges are turning into a joke. Classes are getting easier and more A’s are being handed out than ever before in history. It is where people go to become followers and get brainwashed now as government runs the institutions. I went to a big liberal college. Graduated and still haven’t used much of what I learned in the business field. All it did was give me a price of paper to get a better job interview. For people who already know how to increase assets and investments, you don’t need college. I find more conservatives to be strategic thinkers and problem solvers. These liberal colleges are getting crazier with teachings and don’t teach students how to build wealth. Apparently their are also endless amount of genders now. Lol.

  9. Small million dollar daddy loan- disgusting and a lie. His supporters will most likely never see 400 million dollars in their lifetime. Yet they support this foolishness.

    1. But they believe they will see huge profits in their own bank accounts under trump. Because everything he defunds will magically get dolled out to them. Trickle down. Too many people believe they’re broke and poor because brown people are getting their money for free.

  10. If Trump owes such “a small amount of money”, then why is he in a total panic about paying it back?

    1. @Smarter than you Fo sho — he’s bankrupt once again, or in trouble for fraudulently appraising his so called properties

    1. MSNBC ARE SELL OUTS!! NBC (MSNBC parent company) decided to give in and air Trump’s townhall DURING Biden’s, and MSNBC decided to air Trump’s INSTEAD of Biden’s!!! Who cares about democracy. If you want REAL progressive news, check out David Pakman.

  11. I’d be willing to bet Trump owes that money to Russians, despite his denials. He lies about his net worth and everything else.

    1. DeutscheBank lent money to Trump based on a certain guarantor….. that guarantor being a bank in Moscow controlled by Putin.

    2. MSNBC ARE SELL OUTS!! NBC (MSNBC parent company) decided to give in and air Trump’s townhall DURING Biden’s, and MSNBC decided to air Trump’s INSTEAD of Biden’s!!! Who cares about democracy. If you want REAL progressive news, check out David Pakman.

  12. And that annoying woman in the back of Trump who kept nodding in agreement with him was placed there by the Trump campaign. Stupid attempt at manipulation.

    1. Yes, very annoying and distracting but then Trump likes distraction-takes your mind off of the b.s. he’s spewing.

    2. Yes… that annoying woman looked like those nodding dogs we’d have on the back of our car when I was little…

    3. They conspired to place a lady specifically in front of the msnbc camera angle I bet if we look into their laptops it’s probably paid for by the same democrat leaders running qanon conspiracy someone get cnn this is gonna be HUGGGE

    4. MSNBC ARE SELL OUTS!! NBC (MSNBC parent company) decided to give in and air Trump’s townhall DURING Biden’s, and MSNBC decided to air Trump’s INSTEAD of Biden’s!!! Who cares about democracy. If you want REAL progressive news, check out David Pakman.

  13. If Trump is a billionaire why does he owe over 400 million? Trump will never show or say who he owes money to. Most likely Putin or MBS.
