HuffPo - "Shut Down The Trump Organization. Now." Said No One in MSM

Nice article that illustrates the bias in the MSM against Hillary and in favor of Trump. Unlike a charitable foundation, Trump directly profits from the operations of his business. Also, Trump's actual foundation was caught funneling campaign money to the Florida AG as she declined to pursue charges against Trump University.

Oh, there’s been nary a peep from our esteemed opinion pages regarding the flood of money from foreign entities into the Trump Organization.

Not one word about the impropriety of a candidate for President still operating a business that relies on deals in foreign lands, with foreign governments.

The New York Daily News, this past weekend, found that Donald Trump’s been doing a lot of big deals with the Saudi government, putting a lot of money into his pocket. We know that the Trump Organization makes a lot of money off its resorts in Dubai and Panama, and has big deals going on in Turkey, Bali, and the Philippines.

We know that Donald Trump, Jr. said, “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets. We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”

Any story that does not fit into the Trump tells-it-like-it-is narrative needs to be censored.

They ALL suck. ( exceptions Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow)
Their anti-Hillary bias shows every day. They can all go to hell. I have stopped watching.

We should all just stop watching en masse . Let their advertisers get wind of it, let their ad revenue dry up. Just stop.
