I saw a clever political carton take-off from the Jaws movie – Donald Trump saying “We’re going to need a bigger boat,” while clinging to the mast of the sinking “SS Lies & Distractions,” as the gigantic “Russia Investigation” shark approached again. Just as Trump boasted about inappropriate sexual advances, then said the victims were liars and it never happened, is he now saying that his boasting about his international business success was not true in the case of Russia.

Do international businessmen base their endeavors on the political and moral beliefs of foreign countries, or profit? If Trump released his tax returns, would they reveal how little if any tax he pays, plus multiple business relationships with Russian millionaires and billionaires, who would profit tremendously from the lifting of U.S. sanctions due to Russian encroachment in Ukraine?

What do you think?
