Sorry, no article to go with this. The title says it all.

Is it possible Trump doesn't divest because he can't afford it?

What possible reason could Orange Hitler have had for not releasing his tax returns than that he isn't nearly as rich as he claims?

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/12/21/1613345/-Is-it-possible-Trump-doesn-t-divest-because-he-can-t-afford-it

What I think someone should do is to create a fake tax return showing Trump's finances to be in the toilet and then have it go viral. He couldn't let that go unanswered, but he would have to release his actual tax returns to counter it. What perfect karma for Mr. Birther!

Then he came for the press, and I said, "What makes this country great is our peaceful transitions of power."

Then he came for the women, and I said, "Try to have some compassion for the frustrations of the other side."

I don't usually bother posting the obvious things going on politically (like announcing who won the election), but instead prefer to post unexpected things that may be interesting or useful.

Trump on Wheel of Fortune

Trump's New Flag

Very cleverly designed:

The GOP double standard and hypocrisy

Attributed to an Alex Schiller:

Bill Clinton cheats on his wife. Impeach him. Trump proudly brags about sexual assault (and has cheated on his wives). Elect him. Hillary oversaw the department of state while 4 people died in an embassy attack. Put her in jail. Two Republicans were in office while over 200 people died in embassy attacks. No problem. Immigrants don't pay taxes. Round them up and kick them out. Trump doesn't pay taxes. He's a business genius. Hillary's charity foundation only spent 87% of their donations helping people. She's a crook. Trump's charity foundation paid off his debts, bought sculptures of him, and made political donations to avoid investigations while using less than 5% of funds for charity (and he got shut down by NY State). So savvy...put him in the white house. Trump made 4 billion dollars in 40 years, when an index fund started at the same time with the same "small loans" he received would be worth $12 billion today...without a trail of bankruptcies, thousands of lawsuits and burned small business owners. He's a real business whiz. Hillary took a loss of $700k. She's a criminal. Trump is the first candidate in the modern era not to release his tax returns, and took a billion dollar loss in one year. Genius. Hillary takes responsibility for private email servers and apologizes. Not credible. Trump denies saying things (on the record) that he actually said (on the record), he's just telling it like it is.

Your arguments are thin. Your ignorance of reality is shocking. Your double-standards are offensive, and your willingness to blindly support him and recycle the rhetoric is absurd. Your opinion is not fact. Your memes are not news articles. And your hypocrisy is not a platform.
