Trump tells Steve Rattner: 'You should have gone to prison'
CNN Money ^ | July 27, 2015 | Ahiza Garcia

Presidential candidate Donald Trump is now taking on one-time Obama "car czar" Steve Rattner.

On Monday, Trump fired off a tweet telling Rattner: "I think you should have gone to prison for what you did, I guess Obama saved you."

He ended the tweet telling Rattner to watch: "I will win!"

It was unclear what activity Trump was referring to that should have landed Rattner in jail. Trump did not respond to CNNMoney's request for comment.

In 2010, Rattner did pay $10 million in fines when he settled with the New York state attorney general for his alleged involvement in a pension fund scheme. At that time, Rattner escaped jail time whereas some others who were involved in the same scheme, such as former New York comptroller Alan Hevesi, did not....

“Come on, even if you don’t like Trump, or trust him, how can you not love this?”

I would say that he is hitting back 2x for every hit he takes (and shrugs off). Eventually even the stupid Dems will figure this out, but it sure is fun to watch now.

You are the one who wants an unvetted liberal Clinton crony to be president of this country. Obama got elected unvetted in 2008, how did that work out? Now we have people like you who want Trump to be supported completely unvetted based just on what the media says?

Wake up!

HW Bush I didn’t like. He was a political wonk from the beginning.
W Bush I loved. Ordinary guy, had the right indiscretions of youth in his past to come across as real.
Jeb like him, but he’s not a Conservative. He would be the choice of the Republican Leadership.

Wake up!

Another futile attempt at deflection but it ain't gonna work Nick!

How about answering my questions?

One has to wonder who the real trolls are around here and how you've been able to snooker JimRob into allowing you to hang out for so long..........

I suspect you just might be in your own end of days............

Trump grew up in Queens...went to military school...saw the Godfather.

With $10 billion...he can put together a good security force.

If he is so stupid as to not protect himself...how much good can he be to us.

Don't worry about Trump.

He isn't.

By the way, if someone took money from you, on their word, I supposed you'd like if they stiffed you?

These were investments. Not all investments succeed. In many cases you can write off losses. I invested $5,000 in one startup that went belly up - Chapter 11 - in the dot com disaster. I lost every penny. I was mad. I was embarrassed as some relatives also lost money and blamed me. But 3 years later the same guy came to me with a new opportunity, and I handed him $10k. That investment is now worth around 15 times that much, and he is featured regularly in Inc, Fast Company, etc. Just because his first startup failed didn't make him evil, or "liberal." Trump has formed well over 1,000 LLC's. To have only 4 bankruptcies out of that bunch is not bad at all.

Tell your liberal buddies I won’t give up.

That's a mighty high opinion you have of your own speculations there, nick.

Says the man who bankrupted four companies...

You do realize four, count'em FOUR bankruptcies, for a guy that plays on Trump's level, is like bitching about women wearing pants, right?

While I am not on the Trump bandwagon I love the fact that he is saying what has been ignored by the establishment for decades and he is outing the Benedict Arnolds of the R party.

The ironic thing I am reminded of on all these threads is there are posters that are attacking Trump for being liberal on many issues.

Some of these Same posters just 10 months ago seminar posted about supporting all R candidates to get the Majority in R hands.
Many of those candidates have acted and voted more liberal than Trump both before and after the election.

Makes you go hmmmmmm

“If America is looking for an alpha male...Trump is the guy they are looking for.”

Ain’t that the truth. The twinkie in the White Hut now is an embarrassment on so many levels. It would be nice to see a man in there for a change.
