How does this have anything to do with Trump at all? He was not
mentioned in any of the indictments nor was he brought up in any of
the testimony that I heard about.
I am just pointing out that the laws are so convoluted and the
dealings of multinational corporations are so complex that I doubt any
of them could survive this kind of scrutiny.
It is like the old TCMP audits the IRS ran. They always found
something, no matter how careful the filers were.
Manafort and Cohen are but two of Trump's close associates who are swamp
creatures. Several others, including Flynn, have copped pleas. The
ethics of others have been questioned. Several have resigned because of
ethical issues. Others may take that route. Two of Trump's earliest
supporters in the House are now under indictment.
Oh, and Trump was mentioned indirectly by Cohen in his plea proceeding.
But...remain calm, all is well...
As for doing business in Eastern Europe, if you are dealing in the
millions of dollars and you want to remain clean, you retain an
international accounting/legal firm and follow its advice. Or you can
follow the path Manafort took.
Trump and Thugs, Inc., make the Nixon crew look like amateurs from a
Jimmy Breslin novel.
