NBC Is Reporting That Trump's Loans With Deutsche Bank Were Co-Signed By...

...Rusian oligarchs. Apparently, Donnie couldn't get the loans on his own. It makes sense now why he wants to hold the next G-7 at Doral and keeps pressuring the Fed to lower interest rates. He can't make his loan payments. 

 

If this story holds up, Donnie is owned lock stock and barrel by the Russians and totally beholden to them. Looks like the Conservatives may have sold out the country to a Russian asset.

The story has not been verified....plus, Putin strongly denies it.   He was very strong about it.   He's a strong man.  Very strong.   

 

But our president has already been doing cartwheels to reward Russia for attacking our democracy and invading Crimea.     He really wants them in the G7(8).    

 

 

 

How sad.A guy that's supposed to be a billionaire can't get a loan in his own country.What a pathetic human being.

Apparently President Trump denes the charge above.

 

From Trump's legal team:

"The [NBC] Program and Tweet make the false and defamatory statements that 'Russian oligarchs' co-signed loans provided to Mr. Trump by Deutsche Bank, and described these 'co-signers' as 'Russian billionaires close to Vladimir Putin.' "

Trump is demanding that O'Donnell and NBCU "immediately and prominently retract, correct and apologize for the aforementioned false and defamatory statements."

"Failure to do so will leave my clients with no alternative but to consider their legal options which could include immediate legal proceedings against Mr. O’Donnell and NBCU," concludes the letter. "Should that occur, my clients would pursue all available causes of action and seek all available damages and other legal remedies to the maximum extent permitted by law."

Trump's denial serves as absolute confirmation that the story is true.

 

We've always known that Trump is Putin's bitch, and that Trumpers are therefore apprentice bitches.

I'll wait for verification.     And thats the responsible approach.    Irresonsible Speculation is best left to the birthers, Bengazhi-ites, and Seth Rich conspiracy theorists.   

 

His tax returns will be a known quantity before the next election.

He didn't steal any horses, but he sure is trying hard to not be hanged for it!

That's funny considering the story originated with madow & o'donnell at msnbc

 

Uh-Oh !

 

From the twitter-verse:

 

Lawrence O'Donnell

"Last night I made an error in judgment by reporting an item about the president’s finances that didn’t go through our rigorous verification and standards process.

I shouldn’t have reported it and I was wrong to discuss it on the air.

I will address the issue on my show tonight."

I think Trump invites these speculations because he has violated so many Presidential norms. If he had put his business assets in a blind trust like past Presidents, his business ties to Russa wouldn't keep coming up. Anyway, I'd love to see Trump sue NBC. Trump would have to release the loan documents in question to prove his case.

 

Alas, I think Trump is too busy to pursue litigation with NBC as he is spending all of his time complaining about Fox News. He thinks they aren't in the tank enough for him.
