    Pay Equality

    So Gretchen wassername has now earned about 50% more than Hillary's speeches over 5 years through a harassment suit, and Ailes has earned twice that amount for quitting. Shame they're not demanding his transcripts. But thebiggest scandal remains the Clinton Foundation, where unlike Fox they trade non-access for non pocketed money. Why do they do it?

    Meanwhile the Trumpster can pay himself 5x market rate for his properties used in the campaign and it's no big thing. Trump's wife was an illegal immigrant but he's still talking about that wall. And we still dont know how much he owes to Russia and China and what his tax weirdness looks like. And he was actually fined a pittance for buying off a Florida A.G. But Hillary has the possible appearance of impropriety. Better ditch that Foundation aftwr all. God help us.

    Comments

    If the Clinton Foundation is bad despite an A rating as a charity, shouldn't the press require that Trump shut down the Trump Organization. Hillary gets no income from the Foundation, but it looks "bad". Trump directly benefits from the Trump Organization. Even if Trump is in a blind trust, people could still do business with the Trump Organization that would ultimately benefit Trump. Let's shut down the Trump Organization which has multiple ties to foreign governments like Russia and Saudi Arabia.

    Edit to add 

    As you observe, Trump is benefiting financial from having campaign events at Trump properties

    Mara Liasson at Nice  Polite Republican radio today said the only thing holding Trump back is..........drumroll......'plausibility'.

    That's it.

    I have no idea what NPR means. Plausibility of what exactly? Plausibility he will cede Washington DC to the KGB? Poland? Invade Iran?

    They didn't say......of course...
