I’ll take my chances with Trumps entanglements over the Beasts any day........she’s already shown what her “entanglements” have brought down on this country!

Pretty far.

But its true that few US politicians to date have had such wealth, assets and business record. Anyone in Trumps situation would have extensive international business contacts.

Romney did have quite a few actually, and so of course did Nelson Rockefeller, through his family.

Oh, I dunno - Hillary has extensive foreign business connections as well. Such as a $12 million bribe from the King of Morocco for a single meeting... Business with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, lots and lots of foreign "business"...

Trump won't be indicted, but Hillary appears on the verge. DJT kids run the businesses, see no conflict there and they can place conflict concerned assets in a blind trust,as Clinton's should have done and others have done in the past,

When there is nothing remaining to be scraped from the barrel’s bottom, it’s poke time. Shovel’s ready to dig deep.

Different maybe, but unparalleled?

Hellary’s would be unparalleled, illegal, and catastrophic.

“Wait...........I thought he had no experience in international affairs? According to HRC.” Well Hillary has had a lot of international affairs based on alleged underage girls for her, Billery and Wiener....all aboard the Lolita Express”, based on allegations attributed to the NYPD.

For heaven’s sake. What about hillary accepting pilfered questions for at least one debate against Sanders precluding her from being Commander in Chief? Duty, HONOR, and country should mean something to a candidate for President.

The Wall Street Journal has been a propaganda organ of the Cheap Labor Express for years.
They are very worried that the Cheap Labor Express will be shut down.

ha ha ha

meanwhile,HiLIARy has been going around (with her supposed husband) collecting bribe money from dozens of ENEMY AGENTS and representatives of ENEMY dictatorships Moslems especially from the Gulf all the way to the (somewhat more benign) Moslem king of Moracco...

plus enemyNaziSoroz $$$$$$$$ flowing for HilLIARy through numerous front groups and fake groups

and the Clintons sold our out nuclear missile control technology (for multiple re-entry vehicles, so that five nuclear bombs can destroy 5 different American cities, all shot from a single rocket) to the Communist Chinese

and the Clintons have sold a major portion of our American nuclear fuels, uranium...to foreign interests, too

but of course, HilLIARy is not compromised AT ALL.

only Mr Trump is compromised because he owns a couple of hotels and a golf course

He has no say and does not deal with them. Then what is the problem?

And what crimes has Trump been involved in again?

Wow, I didn’t know that. Mr. Trump has been busy building a global real estate empire, and other business interests for decades.

Who would have thought that during that time he would have developed contacts and cultivated both business and personal relationships?

Hardly. He turns it over to his kids. They run the businesses, and he runs the country.

If Trump wins, I would prefer to see him sell all of his foreign assets rather than turning them over to his children.

It just makes it look better, for sure.

The difference being his doing business is legal, whereas the Clinton’s foreign fundraising , and receipt of foreign payoffs to their foundation and Global Initiative are illegal. If elected, Hillary and Bill will continue to line their pockets with money by using their position to conduct more illegal business.

Someone should remind the Journal, whom Donald Trump is running against.

How Can Any American.

Some of the Founding Fathers had interests which arguably could have involved conflicts of interest. But they were men of honor, and no one will suggest that they risked everything to win our sovereignty, to feather their own nests, as it were. Meanwhile, in the far less ethical America we live in today, we allow people who take unearned benefits from Government to vote for those who deliberately buy their votes with other people's money.

I am all for dealing with the really egregious conflicts of interest; but this article is a foolish diversion from what we should be working on: Electing Donald Trump!
