Her joining in with you Democrats was her political suicide.. FACT

It's bad when you knuckleheads are so screwed up, that you actually had to switch over to the Republican side to front a candidate... ROTFLMBO

I must say, now that was a professional hollyweird makeover right there. Eddie Murphy will be jealous if he sees that one.

Are you voting for Nikki Haley or are you at war with women?

Well if you're asking if I'm voting for Nikki Haley because she's a woman, then I'd say no, and you must be mistaking me for a dumb ace Democrat to do something like that, but if you're asking me if I'm not voting for her based upon her substance and value brought to the table, then I'd agree with you on that reasoning for me not voting for her.

She's too weak, and reminds me of Hillary.

Forbes Estimates China Paid Trump At Least $5.4 Million Since He Took Office, Via Mysterious Trump Tower Lease

Donald Trump maintained a stake in Trump Tower when he became president, and with it, a financial connection to the Chinese government.

President Donald Trump, who declared “I don’t make money from China” in Thursday night’s presidential debate, has in fact collected millions of dollars from government-owned entities in China since he took office. Forbes estimates that at least $5.4 million has flowed into the president’s business from a lease agreement involving a state-owned bank in Trump Tower.

The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China signed a lease for space in 2008, years before the president took office, paying about $1.9 million in annual rent. Trump is well-aware of the deal. “I’ll show you the Industrial Bank of China,” he told three Forbes journalists touring Trump Tower in 2015. “I have the best tenants in the world in this building.”

Trump moved from the skyscraper to the White House in 2017, but he held onto ownership of the retail and office space in the building, through his 100% interest in an entity called Trump Tower Commercial LLC. That put him in an unusual position, given that government-owned entities in China hold at least 70% of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Suddenly, a routine real estate deal became a conduit for a foreign superpower to pay the president of the United States.
