But Macri says it is true????

You know we cannot believe anyone speaking for Trump.....esp. Kelly Ann person.

"I wouldn't believe him (Trump) if his tongue came notarized. Macri would have absolutely no reason to make it up. Trump, OTH has every reason to deny it. He's an inveterate liar. He lies just because he likes to lie, even when there's no purpose served by his lie. Then he lies about having lied.

(name withheld) where the standard practice in Board of Directors Meetings was to have a secretary taking a transcript in shorthand along with a tape recording of the meeting as well. That was supposed to prevent people from saying at the next meeting "I never said......". Unfortunately, all that achieved was for the excuse at the next meeting to be "I meant to say..."

Perhaps she should be called before a Congressional Committee to see just what she knows about these "conflicts of interest". That should piss him off to the point of a stroke.

That will continue to be the case, while tRump rakes in billions of dollars.

all the hard work of running the nation and Trump would bask in the glory of being the President, while he raked in the dollars from monetizing the Presidency. I don't think Pence is smart enough to do it but Trump is certainly stupid enough (and arrogant enough) to try.
