    Trump paid $188,500 in taxes to China, where he has a bank account and business interests that were not disclosed here.

    That's more than 250X what he paid in US taxes.

    The title of the business interests suggests he's in the hospitality business there.

    Yet, he rags on Biden for being "soft on China"???

    That's what his tax records show. To borrow a line from you guys, I haven't heard him deny it. Hell, a Trump Organization lawyer (Alan Garten) has already confirmed that the account exists. So . . . you were saying?

    Why would Twitter "censor" it? It isn't like the only source of the story at that point was a compromised personal lawyer of his opposition. Plus, the Trump Organization has confirmed the account is real.

    See the OP. And, again, the Trump Organization has admitted the account is real.

    That's right, Twitter would not censor any dirt on Trump.

    Now, if it was sleepy Joe, they would.

    I can only think of one Joe story the "censored." Have you ever been on Twitter? There is plenty of anti-Joe stuff. Why keep playing make believe?

    The issue is..........Jealousy........plain and simple. People on the left do not tolerate financial success unless it is a gender confused rapper or movie star.

    Good points!

    I am of the opinion that some high level NSA people who wanted to get the CIA out of the drug trade and human trafficking talked billionaire Donald Trump to campaign for President because they knew that he had the courage to go through what he went through over these past five years. They psychologically profiled him for the job...... and they were not looking for a speaker like Obama or the typical political type.

    Trump has not "given all of his businesses away" and he's continued making a profit while in office. I love financial success that is built on creating value. Not so fond of con men and people who abuse public office for financial gain.

    Did you receive 17.5 million in one lump sum (more than you had collectively in your past five years combined) immediately after you took public office and, just as immediately, cash out 15 million of it while hiding your account from the public? People would give a damn then.

    Yes, he did indeed. Trump surrendered control of all of his business. But you' already knew it, or at least you should have.

    Yes he has surrendered control of all of his business and "continuing making profit while in the office is not illegal.

    Unless it is trump, of course. Then everything is illegal.

    No, I haven't. Have you ever been to Berdichiv?

    ...Twitter is allowing Chinese and Iranian state media to push content while blocking a New York Post article that purports to show emails from Hunter Biden linking his father to his Ukraine business dealings...
