Donald Trump Has At Least $1 Billion In Debt, More Than Twice The Amount He Suggested

Especially after 2 1/2 years, 12 investigators, dozens of lawyers, 500 subpoenas, a grand jury, and 35 million dollars wasted, to find not one thing Trump did that is indictable.

It's also totally amazing that when they investigated OJ Simpson that they didn't find one thing Trump did that is indictable.
Seems that all that money used in the investigation was wasted.

Obama also said the days of 3% GDP were over, so he said there’s no way Trumps economic plan could get those numbers, except Trump did exactly that - before the Fed raised interest rates four times on Trump, knowing higher rates would hamper economic growth - after not raising them at all for the 8 Obama years.

Trump never achieved 3.0% GDP growth annually. He hit 2.9% in 2018. Obama hit the same number in 2015. U.S. - GDP growth by year 1990-2019 | Statista

In quarterly terms Trump achieved 3.0% or better GDP growth in Q3 2017 (3.2), Q4 2017 (3.5) and Q1 2018 (3.8).

Obama in just his second term accomplished it in Q1 2013 (3.6), Q3 2013 (3.2), Q4 2013 (3.2), Q2 2014 (5.5), Q3 2014 (5.0), Q1 2015 (3.2), and Q2 2015 (3.0).

That sounds pretty low compared to the amount, both in time and money, spent investigating Hillary Clinton -- and not one thing that is indictable. Additionally, the Mueller Report found things that Trump could be indicted on but you cannot indict (per DoJ rules) a sitting President -- so we'll see what happens once Trump is out of office.

More to the point, it did not "waste" taxpayer dollars. First, several of those who worked on Trumps's campaigns, including Trump's personal lawyer (who implicated the President in his crime as a co-conspirator), have been indicted and convicted. Additionally, it actually cost the taxpayer nothing -- as civil forfeitures made as a result of the indictments/convictions actually made the government a profit.

Please note, I changed the word "Clinton's" to "Trump's" as that is clearly what you meant to say.

Thanks for catching my typo, I fixed my post.

He is a sitting president for whom the AG is serving as a shield/accomplice.
Ignoring 500 subpoenas would surely count for "contempt of court." Even just an overnight in the pokey would be 500 days...
The fines paid by Manafort equaled $45 million and so the Mueller Report was performed at a profit of $10 million. You're welcome.
10 indictable incidences of obstruction were noted. The AG stepped in, explaining the report dishonestly, making people wait three weeks for the heavily redacted copies, etc. A court has ruled that many of the redactions were not classified and that the unredacted report must be released to the public. Prominent among the unnecessary redactions were a list of offenders and offenses.
Despite colossal obstruction of justice, Trump has not YET been indicted.
We hope that that will be remedied on January 21, 2021. Those of us who see his criminality clearly want to regain our faith in the criminal justice system.
There are black women who have stolen loaves of bread who are in prison longer than Trump will be if, at age 74, he is sentenced to life without parole.

You people just can’t stand that he bucks the system.

"Bucking" is the new "Cheating?"

Let him tell THAT to the judge!

Yes, although it appears that Trump, as sitting President, is getting away with crimes and enabled by many of his staff, if Trump and his enablers pay a price once out of office then this ought to stop any future President (and any potential enablers) from thinking that they could also behave this way when they are in office.

People don't like corruption, abuse of power and criminality from those with power. This is the classic definition of a swamp.

And Biden and his crackhead son are lily white. Read any news stories lately? I’d rather have someone in office who’s at least trying to clean things up. Biden is worse than Trump on Trump’s worst day.

Russian disinformation from the Giuliani/Bannon pipeline contradicts exhaustive investigations by the DOJ and the Senate Intelligence Committee--not a group that would be supportive of a Democrat.

You need to find some reputable news sources.

Given that literally nothing a president does is indictable when they are in office, I'm not sure what we're supposed to think this demonstrates.

When I pointed out the same thing, I was told that no one cares. Guess we're both obviously wrong for caring about law and order rather than supporting someone who "buck"s those things.
