TRUMP ...


“It is unfortunate that my comments have been misconstrued as a categorical attack against people of Mexican heritage,” the statement said. “I am friends with and employ thousands of people of Mexican and Hispanic descent.”


YEAH YEAH YEAH. WE know. You LOVE Mexicans.

Donald, as a Mexican-American whose family has been here for generations (I have no relatives in Mexico who are rapists or drug dealers. In fact, I have no relatives in Mexico, because, well …WE WERE ALL BORN HERE) ... anyway, I don't need your freaking apology. You know why? Because you're not sorry.    Your insulting words about Mexicans and Mexican-Americans mean nothing to me because you are an idiot. Liken it to this ... I'm walking down the sidewalk, I see a pile of dog-shit, I walk AROUND it. I do not step IN it. YOU, Donald are the dog-shit.

This is what happens when you give an idiot too much power and fame. Trump will say anything, retract, and then say it again if the wind is blowing in the right direction. I notice that he has been quite silent in the wake of these latest remarks when normally he would be on every television and radio station on the planet to "address" his comments and stress how much he LOVES THE MEXICANS while eating a taco. 

I think Mr. Trump has finally gone too far.  Which is shocking to me because in my opinion “too far” was a long time ago.  When Lindsay Graham states that he wants to the party to un-endorse Trump you have obviously done some pretty serious damage.  I have to hand it to the Republicans for stepping up.  Even they can see that Trump is cuckoo for coco puffs. 

Mexico steals U.S. jobs!  Donald Trump recently resurrected this jewel by weighing in against Nabisco and Ford for shifting production to Mexico from high-cost Illinois and Michigan. Never mind that one reason Ford made the move was to take advantage of Mexico’s free-trade agreements with the European Union and other countries, meaning that opposition to free trade is the very thing that drives business abroad.  YET, while Donald Trump condemns Mexico for "taking our jobs," he had a waterfront development in Baja California, MEXICO which included 525 condo-hotel units in three 16 story towers.  Emphasis would be on luxury living and exclusivity; swimming pools, spas, tennis courts and find dining.  

Ground was broken but that was as far as it got. It was hit by financial problems in 2008 and everything came to a screeching halt.  

Shortly after, a lawsuit was filed by 200 people against Trump, his children and the developer, claiming that they were deceived into believing they were buying into a Trump property.

Here’s why Trump might not like Mexico

Buyers sued after Baja resort had been sold as a Trump project


 1678  127
Thanks to the monitoring of real estate developer Donald Trump’s Twitter account, the world knows what he thinks of the Academy Awards, the winning Mexican director’s film Birdman, and investing in Mexico which, in short, is very little.

What the world might not know is that Trump’s tweet regarding investing in Mexico might stir up some unpleasant memories for nearly 200 people who paid a total of more than US $20 million in deposits on luxury ocean-view condominiums at Trump Ocean Resort Baja.
The seven-hectare waterfront resort development at Playa Bandera, Baja California, 16 kilometers from the U.S. border, was to include 526 condo-hotel units in three 16-story towers, and was announced in 2006 as a Trump project. A report by SanDiegoRed says the emphasis would be on luxury living and exclusivity: swimming pools, spas, tennis courts and fine dining.
Ground was broken but that was as far as it got: it was hit by financial problems in 2008 and shut down in 2009.
Shortly after, a lawsuit was filed by nearly 70 plaintiffs against Donald Trump, his children and the developer. They claimed that they were deceived into believing they were buying into a Trump project.
But in fact they were not.
Trump claimed that he did no more than license his name to the developer and that he was not responsible for the development, although his name appeared on all its marketing materials. That, said an attorney representing the plaintiffs, gave a sense of security to buyers who would not have invested had they known the truth.
Trump told the San Diego Union-Tribune at the time that while he was not happy with what had occurred, he had never been to the site and that the developers had simply licensed his name.
Four years later, the plaintiffs reached a settlement with Trump.
A similar situation has since occurred in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where buyers sued after a Trump International Hotel & Tower project went off the rails. In that case as well, Trump denied responsibility, saying he had done nothing more than license his name.

Know what Trump said?   

Trump told The Times that the developers were to blame, saying he merely licensed his name to the 525-unit oceanfront project and was not involved in building it.


The same thing happened in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.  

THIS IS HIS M.O.  He deflects.  Denies.  Lies.  

HERE IS THE POINT.  Trump will build and do business with anyone, anywhere ... even Hitler if he knew he'd make a YUGE profit.  He's a shyster.  A hypocrite and a racist.
