It Donald has no moral scruples about dealing with the New York and New Jersey mafia, then lying about it under oath (2013 deposition regarding Felix Sater questions), then what makes you think he would have no problem dealing with Russian mobsters? Also, Trump is a cult, and all of his followers are cultists. Lastly, to all of you low-wattage morons bashing on this video and investigative reporter, you do realize that the Wall Street Journal is a very conservative news outlet, and it is owned by the conservative Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who also owns FOX “News.” You do realize that, right? Won’t make a dent in most of you tho, as you’re all neck-deep in a cult. How does that Kool Aid taste? Bitter I assume. Psst! It’s the corruption that gives it that bitter taste 😉 #maga
@ free American, you do realize that Michael Rothfeld is an INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER for the conservative Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal, not an op-ed writer. He has to follow what is known in journalism as “the editorial process.” Did you read his piece in its entirety? I did. If you did read his piece, were there any errors or mistakes that you found in it? Just because it makes your cult leader look bad, it doesn’t mean it’s untrue.

@@nozh2krov yup... and what if Trump was working with the FBI? www.buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonaleopold/trumps-long-history-with-the-fbi-in-1981-he-offered-to-fully
Anyone in New York in the 70s and 80s even a bit into the 90s dealt with the Mob, but it seems like intelligence is really hard to come by in these news stations
Did you actually listen to what the clip said? Everybody who keeps repeating this in the comments didn't actually watch the video. The investigative reporter basically states what you said.
Trump went to school with John Gotti Jr. John Gotti Jr wasn't the godfather yet. Trump and John Gotti Jr was still teenager's. John Gotti sir was still a Capo during Paul Castellano regime. At that time. John Gotti sir and the rest of the La Cosa Nostra Commission was getting ready to kill Paul Castellano.
Not to mention his multiple bankruptcies, illegal payoffs to porn stars, failed scams like Trump “University,” the boondoggle that was Trump Casino Atlantic City, and mishandling the boatload of money his racist daddy gave him. What a deal-maker! It’s amazing how under his spell all you Trump cultists are. Especially with the fact that he doesn’t give two shits about you, expects your loyalty, but would throw you under the bus at the first chance he got. Sad
Dan Nájera so what? Everybody fails. I’m not endorsing Trump, but you sound like you’re jealous bc he was given a million dollars by his dad, still had companies he started go bankrupt, but still overcame these obstacles and built a $3.5 billion dollar empire...he didn’t scam anyone bc once you lend money to a up and coming company, you know the risk.
In all of this , there is no evidence of Trump directly committing a crime. This is like getting mad at someone with no criminal record for once having a cousin who was a burglar
It would have been impossible to run a casino in Atlantic City in the 80's without having to deal with Scarfo in some way or another. They ran the unions, construction, probably even the garbage collections. In New York in those days you couldn't even run a market stall without paying someone off.
But he was warned that if he did move on with his Casino in Atlantic City, that he would become entangled in business with the mob and chose to continue anyways. That Casino was also a really well known place for money laundering by both the mob and Russians.
So did anyone else who built anything or got something done in that city. Those guys and their associates had their hands in everything; construction, labor unions, garbage collection, food service industry, meats, garment district, and a lot of other things too. In short, they owned that town and to a certain extent still do today.
Trump was dealing with crime family's for long time. He gave them Perk's at many locations. The only contractor 's he did not stiff were mob related. On one casino alone, he stiffed about 100 contractors, many would have to settle for 33 %. Today he has had close to 4200,law suits.the list of grift and failures is huge.
Yes, his deals with dictators Putin, Erdogon, Kim, and that murderous Saudi prince are really showing how sharp of a foreign policy deal-maker he is. NOT! Lol 😝

At those times everyone in the building game had to pay the mob of or suffer union trouble Was the laws fault for not stopping the mob,not the peaple paying them off.What business man WANTS to pay money they can avoid?No successful ones.
Sure you want to talk about the people who had to suffer and deal with the mob on a daily basis but you don't want to address the politicians that enabled the mob to do those things freely?
Isn't this relationship a danger to a sitting president? Also, wouldn't this relationship be a risk for getting clearance let alone a sitting president's qualifications. This is really bad.
Jared couldnt get clearance...TRUMP DEMANDED that they give it to him anyway....then off to Saudi Arabia he went ...4 years later a $2 BILLION DOLLAR PAYOFF...for what?? NO ONE REALLY KNOWS.....REPUBLICANS ARENT ASKING...THEY are too busy trying to set up HUNTER!!
Their looking in the wrong place. Banks, loans and insurance. And track how he went from bankruptcy to eleven billion. That's the chain of evidence. But you need the tax records. And business records. A lot of stuff that's tough to get. And some one like an accountant to flip. That's why he's so confident he wouldn't be indicted.
The fact is the mob as well known had there hand in construction and unions and where powerful and deadly and didn't mess about.. donald a property developer has to deal with the mob either by third parties or directly... thats how it was then.. the human right of freedom of assosiation is fundamental in any investigative look at trump.. we are all individuality accountable for our own choices and business not thoes we assosiate with including trump...
Self greed allows this to happen Thhinking as life on this planet will never end. The Human body last 80 years. The soul last forever. There are no Banks in heaven.
It's crazy how big the mob was. Now they are a lot small in power some(the five families) is on the rise and others is on the decline. In Russia it's on a nother level the Russian mod is huge and fastly powerful. Semion Yudkovich Mogilevich is just about untouchable because is ties with the Russian government it's just crazy.
NYC was great in the 1980's. They really got the job done. Make America Great Again, how about make NYC great again? Everyone could afford to go to NYC back then, get a Bagel and a Cup of Coffee, go to a Play or an Art show. There wasn't the class division like there is today. The rich had to hang out with the poor, because the poor were the starving artists, musicians and entertainers and if the rich mistreated the poor, they wouldn't have any good Art to put on their walls or new fashion. The 1989 film the Slaves of New York really showed NYC when it was great and 80's Shoulder Pads, which was the most ludicrous fashion ever was actually a statement on Feminist empowerment, Girl Boss and being Successful, like When Harry Met Sally. The Women could now take on the role of the man or Boss. This was the purpose of the fashion statement. Thirty Something, Working Girl with Melanie Griffith, successful career women and still being able to have a family. The American Dream and Suburbia being able to visit NYC whenever they wanted. A Cultural melting pot based on Capitalism empowering people to better their lives and be Successful. Anyone and Everyone from around the World. That is the NYC we all loved.
If you build anything in New York, you'll have to pay the Mob.
Joe Ochoa all the concrete for his ny and ac buildings came from one company....s & a concrete. Owned by the Genovese Crime Family. The Don is dirty.
Jew York is aFailed Narco State
He Paid the Mob to get away with certain concrete standards that were required for building. He did it the cheap way.
Look at the companies that are taking sand out of the ocean and using them to build buildings . Talk about Freemasons building huh!?
So profound. Protect White Privilege by any means. Even if it's through the Mafia.
All most every Wealthy person in New York has a connection with MOB, especially with the construction industry
You are making excuses for the criminal Trump family. Not every wealthy person in New York have connections to the mob like criminal Trumps.
So don’t elect them president…
Still waiting for the Wall Street Journal to list the mega successful billionaires who never dealt with organized crime. Hope it is forthcoming.
