Musicmystery -> Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/10/2015 5:54:39 AM)

Trump has many lucrative businesses with wealthy Islamic partners.

Until he started preaching hate. Or shooting off his mouth just for a reaction.

Either way -- it's starting to hurt his bank account.

His anti-Mexican remarks already cost him deals with Macy's and Univision.

This is when you know the guy really cares about his country when his willing to sacrifice his businesses and have a dent on his own money.

I don't know, my mentality is, Trump doesn't need the salary of a President.

And fact of the matter is, with Obama drastically aging these 8 years is clear how stressful it is!

It is a thankless job!

So good on Trump to care enough about his country to do this, face ridicule, go up against the liberal media, pretty much saying all the things other politicians who may agree are too afraid to say.

Something tells me he'll find new opportunities to make up for any losses.



bounty44 -> RE: Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/10/2015 6:25:42 AM)

except for that theyre not and your thread title is misleadingly named.

the operative would "could" in the title of the article you supplied should have been your first clue.

the second should have been that the only (seemingly) definitive support for your thesis is:

quote:

Landmark Group, one of the biggest Middle Eastern retail companies headquartered in Dubai, said that it would no longer be stocking products from the Trump Home decor range in its Lifestyle stores.


given that he apparently has many business ventures there and of much greater significance, it hardly seems an appropriate use of the word "crumbling."

everything else in the article has the caveat "is at stake" or "could be at jeopardy."

this is not to say what you wrote couldn't happen, but at the moment, its not.

(sorry greta, I mistakingly replied to you instead of the op)



MariaB -> RE: Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/10/2015 6:44:26 AM)

Our London Mayor made a statement saying he wouldn't be visiting America whilst Trump was a candidate and when Trump was invited to the UK so that our government could prove his rants about problem immigrants in the UK were nonsense, a government petition to stop him entering our country reached 200,000 in just a few days.

The man is a racist nut.

In the meantime, just to prove that we don't have political correct bullshit in Singapore, Muslims in Singapore will visit US even if Trump is President, because it doesn't bother them at all what he says about Muslims. No offense taken, no outrage. Just go about their usual business.

Shows the difference in culture.

We like straight talkers here and don't get offended at honesty even if we don't agree with it. I think Pragmatism is the quintessential trait of our citizens.

They don't believe his capable of making that happen and they believe his just saying things to win votes. You miss the point that, they aren't outrage about it at all, that's because, they are used to our government saying straight forward things about Islam too. And learnt to recognise that, it's not against Muslims, but coming from pragmatic grounds of keeping harmony and safety of the country.
They aren't in denial that, there are issues in their religion they need to fix.

Meh. Will it hurt his financial standing enough to make a difference?

No, he might soon be down to his last billion or two. I understand Perot was worth about $1.5 billion when he ran and spent $150 million (his words) of his own money, just to get on all 50 ballots. Trump I am sure...could do the same.

Likely not, true.

Not the kind of "diplomat" we want running our foreign affairs and our economy, however.

It also shows him as a hypocrite as well as a bigot.

WTF are you on? Whatever it is, it needs altering.



servantforuse -> RE: Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/11/2015 5:43:23 AM)

The mayor of London won't be coming to the US. Say it sin't so. How will we survive ?



Lucylastic -> RE: Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/11/2015 6:12:51 AM)

He obviously has a good grip on money and the proof he runs his own accounts pretty well is that he has more pocket change than you and your whole family has in total savings [8|].



mnottertail -> RE: Trump's Islamic Businesses starting to crumble (12/11/2015 10:24:56 AM)

not a hard deal when you constantly bankrupt on your bills

How are they going to visit if he bars their entry?[8|]

No, it shows you are not thinking

We like straight talkers here and don't get offended at honesty even if we don't agree with it.

You have told us that if someone speaks honestly about their support for isis they will be dealt with harshly...so it appears that you are lying now or then...which is it?

I think Pragmatism is the quintessential trait of our citizens.

No the quintessential trait of the citizens of singapore is that they are extorted out of 40% of their weekly paycheck by the nazi government of that third world shit hole.
