Some exceptions means he did have income from Russian sources. This aint hard
“If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency,” Dr. Harold Bornstein concluded.
Who does Trump think that this will convince?
Well, loans are not income. Millions in loans would not add one cent to income.

Hmmmmm…sounds like some of that new-fangled fuzzy math. You know, where there are not discrete values as in “no = zero = 0 = none = niente”, but rather ranges of possible values, i.e. “no exceptions” = {0 exceptions…1000 exceptions} with a membership value in there somewhere. Probably closer to the upper end of the range though.
Correct. Loans just make you beholden to someone. Like Uncle Pootie.
@johniwaniszek The same people who fell for Bornstein’s medical opinion.

Then release your income tax returns.
Notice how, yet again, they refuse to say that there is no Russian MONEY involved in Trump’s businesses – just that there is no direct equity investment or direct income. As if Russian mobsters laundering money would do it in their own names. And when you’re talking huge money, it’s usually in the form of SECURED LOANS, not risky equity investment. I’d put the odds at about 99% that the Trump organization has received massive amounts of Russian money funneled through loans from other channels; e.g., shady Ukranian, Cyprian, and Hungarian banks.
RELEASE YOUR TAXES, YOU FUCKING FRAUD.
Since loans are not covered, I guess it’s safe to assume that his indebtedness to Russians is astronomical.
Exactly – more weasel words from the Trumpsters. “Equity.” Well, what about “debt”?
Trump is a fine businessman, who has carried a remarkably low level of debt through his career, with some exceptions.
He’s a complete success who never filed bankruptcy, with some exceptions.
“Oh, so his lawyers say he’s not guilty of anything? Good enough for me!”
Said no honest prosecutor, anywhere, ever.
“In entities Trump controls” – since he ostensibly turned over control of his entire empire to the kids for the duration, that would be nothing.
He will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency . . . with some exceptions.
And loans are also not equity – just the opposite. Given that the lawyers conspicuously did not claim there are no loans of Russian money, it is safe to assume that the entire Trump empire, such as it is, is leveraged to the hilt with Russian loans.
