Freddy’s son, Fred III, spoke at the funeral, and that night, his wife went into labor with their son, who developed seizures that led to cerebral palsy. The Trump family promised that it would take care of the medical bills.
Then came the unveiling of Fred Sr.’s will, which Donald had helped draft. It divided the bulk of the inheritance, at least $20 million, among his children and their descendants, “other than my son Fred C. Trump Jr.”
Freddy’s children sued, claiming that an earlier version of the will had entitled them to their father’s share of the estate, but that Donald and his siblings had used “undue influence” over their grandfather, who had dementia, to cut them out.
A week later, Mr. Trump retaliated by withdrawing the medical benefits critical to his nephew’s infant child.

Hillary has the FBI , and Bernie to deal with
Trump has Cruz to deal with.
Then there is the issue of VP selections.
And of course, PLENTY could happen between now and election day.
I would wait a bit before making any predictions.

Wish I was self-made!
A National Journal writer, S.V. Dáte, estimated Trump started with $40 million in 1974 when he became president of his father’s real estate company. By one estimate, the firm was worth about $200 million. Divided among Donald Trump and his four siblings, each would have received $40 million.

Freddy was the disappointment, who lacked the killer instinct and drifted so far from his father’s ambitions that his children were largely cut out of the patriarch’s will.

The child's care never was interrupted , as his parents were wealthy enough. The lawsuit was settled. As with most of what goes on in the business of families , not all information is made public. But I understand how Progressives need to reach really deep, and low, when they are on the defensive.

A financier who doesn’t do much financing ?
LOSER
In 1995, he took Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts public in an IPO. But it wound up in Chapter 11 in 2004, and its successor company, in which Trump owned a stake, filed for Chapter 11 in 2009 — even as he managed to extract tons of personal compensation. You will search databases in vain for Trump bonds that are publicly traded.
Indeed, public investors, bondholders, and many banks that have dealt with Trump over the years have often been burned. As a result, Trump is a financier who doesn’t do a ton of financing. In many of the developments with which he is associated, Trump licenses his name while others raise the construction and development funds.
...
Combine the lack of forced disclosure with a willingness to bluster and political journalists’ general ignorance of business matters, and it’s not surprising we get spectacles like we did this week.

Bush*administration in early 2007. Then, within days of*Barack Obama’s election in 2008, Al Gore announced a revelation: the “climate crisis” no longer required such unpleasant, de facto energy taxes. The problem could be solved with painless handouts to green entrepreneurs.
Hooray! Everybody loves a handout. The activist duo Michael Shellenberger and Ted Nordhaus noted that the shift in Mr. Gore’s thinking was “highly significant.” “He knows that cap-and-trade, and most any new regulation, would raise energy prices—a political nonstarter during a recession.”
A proposed oil tax swiftly disappeared from the Obama transition website. With control of all three branches of government in hand, the imminent climate threat to humanity suddenly appeared not so urgent after all—passing a “signature” health-care law did.
Democrats, it turned out, were in favor of climate root canal only when Republicans were in charge.
OK, this is old hat, but what should be striking is how thoroughly the climate lobby has played along. Its main function today has become stringing up apostates as a distraction from Democratic unwillingness to propose policies costly enough that they would actually influence the rate of increase of atmospheric greenhouse gases."

Originally posted by Unregistered View Post. Hmmmmn. R and d and incentives for solar and wind have driven down costs and technology breakthroughs have made them economically viable without tax incentives. They are close to passing fossil fuels. The coal industry is dying. Oil will be dead in the not too distant future. While u nutter dinosaurs have been nattering nabobs of negativity you have failed to recognize the changes. Oil prices haven't plummeted because of supply and demand but rather due to the economic advantages of wind and solar. Sad but you nutters are still living in the past. The world has changed yet you still cling to a 1950s mentality It must suck to be wrong about everything.
