They tried to get Ukraine to install new management into its state-run entity so that new management would give them sweetheart deals. Sounds like at a minimum they're running up against the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Perhaps Ukraine will investigate. If not, perhaps the next Attorney General will. Sure sounds like there's an awful lot of swamp-draining to do.BackInTex wrote:Oh my! Businessmen are meeting with foreign country entities!

Bob, just because people who know Trump, who donated to Trump, and are now working to expand their business holdings (which they would do had they donated to Clinton's campaign)...it's kind of what business folks do, does not equate to corruption.
Probably every billionaire in the US donated to either Trump's campaign, Clinton's campaign, or both, and have folks working overseas to increase their own business holding. Nothing to see here.
But go ahead, get excited. The let down will be that much worse for you next November.
If you're trying to defend this as business as usual, then that's the problem. But I know there's someone who has a plan for that. --Bob
