Oops!

Yeah, no conflict of interests here. :rollseyes:



His supporters don't care...
That's the truth.

They have already chosen Russia over the United States. That makes news like this a non-issue to these "patriots".





Ok, just to be clear on your position here.

Having done business with China and accepting campaign donations from Chinese agents does not disqualify you from being SecState but being on the board of a business that drills for oil in the Russian Arctic does disqualify you for SecState?
To be clear and without getting into the foreign donation swamp (which as a President-elect Trump supporter you probably don't want to wade into) personal financial gain is the difference.

How great that personal gain will be for the President of the United States will remain an unknown factor as President-elect Trump keeps his ties with Russia under wraps by not releasing his taxes (and we all know why).

It's supposed to be "America First" and not "Personal Gain First and if there's time... America".

This topic and the question at hand here is about the Secretary of State position. Clinton has known, documented ties to China and has known, documented donations that were received from a person who turned out to be acting as an agent of the nation of China. While on the board of Walmart Clinton was party to the votes that led to much of their production being moved to China. While her husband was president (and both he and she said she was co-president) that administration oversaw a massive shift of manufacturing into China along with an alteration of China's trade status with the USA as a nation.

Knowing all of these things, democrats and Obama had no problem with Clinton as Secretary of State. In fact, other than the donations most leftists probably saw these things as experiences that helped qualify her for the position.

Now, I know very little about Mr. Tillerson but I expect him to be vetted fully in confirmation hearings but a liberal posted this topic claiming that his being on the board of this company (which would end when his tenure at Exxon ends I am certain) somehow disqualifies Mr. Tillerson as Secretary of State.

If the left feels so strongly that folks who do business with foreign nations are disqualified as SecState candidates shouldn't they have opposed Clinton for all of her known Chinese ties?

You can't avoid business. The conflict of interest occurs when personal gain is the advantage to securing the position.

And this one from the head down reeks of it.

So....what's your problem? Plenty of people have offshore entities....

John Kerry, Valerie Jarrett, Charlie Rangel....etc....
And ties with Russia and President Putin?
;)



Where's your evidence liar
:oyvey You pay attention like you vote.

Evidence please or you are lying.

Fake news is reporting on anonymous CIA sources and an ambiguous letter from intelligence agencies.

Anyone who believes that crap is a useful idiot.

You are convicting these guys of malfeasance when they have yet to take office.

The Clinton's on the other hand have a documented history of turning public office into personal wealth but that is OK with you.

I have seen you repeatedly accuse conservatives of being OK with anything a politician does so long as it is a conservative politician.

Now, I can't say you are wrong about folks giving the guys on their side a pass for transgressions that they condemn the opposition for. In fact it appears to apply to many folks on your side of the aisle too. :cheers:

Your claiming that as President and as Secretary of State that conflicts of interest took place and choices were made so that there was personal profit for the Clinton's and their industries for profit?

You and I both know why President-elect Trump did not release his taxes and yes conservatives were fine with it.

Our incoming President is dirty. He is not just connected to... but he and his family lead for profit industries and I seriously doubt either of those two gentleman will make choices or push for international agreements or sanctions that will cost them cash in pocket.

Inaccuracies of facts are the lifeblood of conservatism.

And isn't it interesting that President-elect Trump's transition team did not admit to this information, it had to be leaked.

But today you're fine with that. :oyvey

Let's see... this is only at the developing stage and you took all news about this at face value.

Clinton pay to play charitable foundation was caught red handed. Every evidence were pointing to their quid pro quo modus operandi and you denied it flatly.
