It doesn't bother Trump in the least....the loss merely turns into another 18 year income write off.

Only harder and with more accuracy.

Thrown at you? An attack on Dimold Twimp is an attack on you?

You can stop with the silly pretense that you're voting for Jill Stein now.

I see.

So you prove that I am not under attack in this forum by........attacking me.

You may or may not be under attack by me or other persons at various times. Irrelevant.

My whole point was just to point out that you reacted with great venom to an attack on Twimp, not an attack on your precious self. So your defense that you respond in kind to personal attacks was blatantly off-point.

I further suggest that your venomous reaction OUTS you, obviously, as a Twimp-lover. No mere Jill Stein voter would get so pissed over that.

At various times during your sad tenure on PC you have attacked nearly everyone on the forum and yet it shocks and offends you when someone returns the favor. What a sad little Triscuit you are.

I'm going to vote for Jill Stein.

But as I have said many many times, I will be rooting for Trump on election night because I feel a Clinton Presidency would be much worse than a Trump one. I therefore do take umbrage at those that think otherwise, as they do of me for thinking the way I do. It's a two way street.

If America does the right thing next Tuesday and rejects the Corrupt Clinton Crime Cartel, I will mellow out considerably.

After my thirst for taunting my detractors has been thoroughly slaked of course.

It’s the tallest residential skyscraper in Canada, and probably the fanciest. The hotel’s sleek cream-and-black interiors were inspired by Champagne and caviar. Every room features Italian Bellino linens and Nespresso coffeemakers. Guests can book a Trump Experience outing through the Trump Attache concierge service. Their furry friends are eligible for the Trump Pets program, which “will fill your best Fido’s tummy with gourmet treats, and see them off to sleep on a plush dog bed.”
This Trump-branded and Trump-managed jewel is also, as a business venture, a bust."


"On Tuesday, a Canadian bankruptcy judge placed the glass-and-granite building into receivership, just four years after Trump and his children cut the ribbon at its grand opening. Once it’s auctioned off, whether or not Trump is the leader of the free world by then, his name may well vanish from its marquee." Politico

Heh, some businessman this guy is. He's got the Midas Touch in reverse.

Trump is not the project’s developer or even an investor; one of his partners, a Russian-born billionaire who got rich in Ukraine’s steel industry, controls the firm that’s in default. The Trump Toronto is still a posh hotel, and even though nearly two thirds of the tower’s condo units remain unsold, they’re still upscale residences. Still, the saga of the property’s glittering rise and rapid fall is classic Trump, featuring a tsunami of litigation and bitterness, money with a Russian accent, and a financial wreck that probably won’t hit its namesake particularly hard.
Quote:
Trump Organization spokeswoman Amanda Miller noted that the company still has a long-term deal to manage the Toronto property, no matter who controls it after the auction. “This has been a record year for the hotel, and we look forward to its continued success,” Miller said. “Guests can expect to receive the same superior level of service and quality that is synonymous with our brand around the world.”

Good read Pat.

Then there’s Carter Page, an adviser with intermittent contacts with the campaign, but with deep ties to Russian money, oil and gas, who has blamed aggressive Western policies for the mess in the Ukraine and what he describes as the “so-called annexation of Crimea.” So-called?

And what about the money? Although Trump has said, “I have zero investments in Russia,” his son Donald Jr. conceded in 2008 that “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets . . . we see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.” Absent more detailed data (like tax returns), who knows?

We have really never seen anything like this. Former acting CIA director Michael Morell says that Putin has cleverly recruited Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.
