Just a question, regarding Donald Trump, and Rahm Emanuel (Vanity)

This is just a thought, and something to consider.

There is an old saying that if you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas.

We've all seen, first hand how corrupt and dirty Obama is, and we all know about the chicago machine.

Why would it be any surprise that Obama would surround himself, with people with low moral characters ? and when I say low character, I specifically mean Mr. Rahm Emanuel, the former chief of staff now mayor of chicago.

Here is the question, we see how Donald Trump gave $50,000 as a campaign contribution to Rahm Emanuel, we also have all heard stories about how Trump "gets things done".......Is it possible, even remotely possible, that Trump simply paid off Rahm Emanuel for information on Obama ?

Rahm Emanuel has a brother, Ari, whom is Trumps long time agent.

Is it farfetched to think Rahm shared some stories with Ari who then turned around and shared them with Trump ?

Also, Trumps reason or claim for donating to Rahm, is that Rahm is a long time friend, has Rahm denied this ?

Is it inconceivable, that Rahm would sell out Obama, for the right price, or the right deal ?

Hard to imagine Emanuel betraying Obambie.
Trump obviously has many business operations in Chicago, and he knows Emanuel is a typical Chicago thug who can get anything done at the snap of his fingers, just like an old Mafia boss.
I would not read much into it.

Rahm would get little in the long run for betraying the president now. And Trump probably greases the palm of every mayor in a market that size.

Probably true, but at the same time, I remember reading somewhere, awhile back, that Trump and Rahm actually go back further then even before Emanuel knew Obama. Either way, Rahm may have shared a few stories with his brother, and his brother, may have have shared a few with Trump.

That said, why wouldn't Rahm sell out Obama, if the price is right ? When has Rahm ever shown loyalty to anybody (he sure wasn't loyal to Nancy Pelosi), we know that he left to run for mayor, but there were stories floating that he was basically pushed out, who is to say, he really wasn't, and isn't holding a grudge ?

Note, Trump also made donations to Blago, and Blago, has no love lost for Obama.

Not hard to imagine Emanuel betraying Obama—without pay—at this point. More likely that Emanuel and the Clintons happily gave Trump guidance and info on Obama to set him out as a plausibly deniable (because he’s doing so as a newly converted “Republican” presidential stalking horse to try to damage Obama and test the waters for a more direct challenge—and even possibly subsequently help out as a third-party siphon of GOP votes. (Which is why Freepers here going bananas for The Donald is a sorry sight indeed.)

Maybe Rahm cares more about money.

That said, it would be funny if Trump could grease Bloomberg, Bloomberg is worth significantly more then Trump, to the point that he could buy out Trump, lock, stock and barrel, and still be a billionaire (actually buy out a couple of Donald Trumps)......How do you pay off someone that could break you over his knee financially ? (not saying he didn't, saying it must be a funny scenario and a very high price).

Well, I do not know about FReepers going gaga over Trump,
but the whole political landscape has been turned upside down,
and I am happy to be on the other side of the world while
watching this silly circus play out.

I am watching America being torn apart at the seams by this political circus, with the Kenyan in center ring.
It will truly take an act of GOD to save the country.

the only folks going bananas are the Palin supporters. Some of us just want to give Donald the freedom to say what’s on his mind. I support him to that extent for sure. If he gets the nomination, I’ll vote for him. If palin gets it, I’ll vote for her. I will support and defend either of them with equal enthusiasm when the times comes because they have one thing in common, they aren’t Obama. I also like Trump because he seriously diminishes Romney’s position in this election cycle and we should all agree that he shouldn’t get the nomination (because he basically is Obama)but that he’s weaselly enough to manage it. and, I’m not going to lie, I disagree with our current trade policy with China and I like what Donald has to say about that. I don’t even hear anyone else bringing it up despite the fact that it is obviously a key element in our current economic crisis. So, if Trump wants to talk, I’ll listen.

My thoughts.
0bama has stabbed so many people in the back, then crushed them, that folks like Rahm and Blago eventually talk
