Howard Dean: Trump Has Been ‘Corrupt Since He Was Born’ | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

Former DNC Chairman Howard Dean calls President Trump 'corrupt' as House Democrats prep for an impeachment probe vote. It comes as Democrats call on an independent investigation into government money spent at Trump resorts. Dean adds 'Pence’s trip' to Ireland is ‘not the problem,’ but rather ‘a well respected organization’ like the military ‘and encouraging them to be corrupt.’

  1. Any republican or democrat who does not vote to impeach when given the evidence should be documented along with the reason why. That way they can be voted out of office.

    1. @Sam Guerra
      “how else are you ‘LOSER Democrat’ expected to respond, other than Name calling!..😱Typical dirtbag, ”
      do you even read what you post before bashing the reply button?

    2. Sam Guerra yeah, it would be looking into—any congressperson who’s against impeachment and has become rich while in office. Vote them out!💙

    3. Right On! The evidence was clear long before he even ran as a candidate, that Illicit-45 was not meant or worthy to be occupying our Whitehouse. ANY public servant still willing to be a cheer-leader for him must be voted out of office as well.

  2. For decades,  Traitor Trump has laundered billions of dollars for Russian organized crime figures and other oligarchs.  Ultimately, Trump’s involvement with Russia’s criminal underworld created an opening for Putin and his agents to manipulate and control him.

    Trump has had contacts with the Russian mafia for 35 years. His properties have laundered money for them. The Russian mafia are connected to Russian intelligence. They were and still are, living and have  working in Trump’s buildings. Trump has even partnered with them. There are many ways in which he’s compromised.

    After the fall of the Soviet Union, you suddenly have trillions of dollars that have to be laundered. It opened the floodgates for the Russian mafia and for the oligarchs. A good way to launder that money is through real estate. Trump made it clear he was ready, willing and able to do that without asking any questions. Trump was $4 billion in debt after his casinos failed in Atlantic City. He came back thanks to the Russians.

    The Republicans are also implicated. The Russians didn’t just go after Trump: They went after the entire Republican Party. There is Russian money going into the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee, the NRA, and then to Republican officials and candidates directly.

    When Trump first visited Russia in 1987, he immediately came back and took out full page ads in the New York Times, the Boston Globe and Washington Post. These ads were very anti-NATO, anti-Western alliance, and that was exactly what the Russians want, even today.

    Back in 1984, Trump had started laundering money for the Russian mafia. In ‘92, the Russian mafia had people like Vyacheslav Kirillovich Ivankov, who was one of the key figures under the mob boss Mogilevich. The FBI was looking all over for him but he was actually in Trump Tower. A lot of the Russian mobsters were going to Trump Tower to launder money as well. Trump was completely overextended in Atlantic City. He ended up $4 billion in debt. He had no future at all until the Russians came to his aid.

    Russian Oligarchs made Trump an offer that he could not refuse. Suddenly Trump started dealing with cash, and he couldn’t get bank loans except some from Deutsche Bank. He was so bankrupt that almost no Western bank could loan him a dime.

    There were ways of laundering money that Trump had. The financing of building projects that involved $400 million or $500 million to build a skyscraper. Once the building was built, they could sell the condos through the shell companies, and limited liability corporations. This was done anonymously in all cash transactions with the Russian oligarchs and other people affiliated with the Russian mafia. They owned Trump before he ever met Putin. Trump became close with the oligarchs who were in turn close to Putin.

    1. Really? Any evidence for your claim? Or you just blowing hot air in between tricks? Plenty of Evidence the Clinton Crime Foundation did that. Not any about Trump though. How does it feel to lose, Over and over?

    2. @Joe Peterson ….I call Troll Alert for David Hauthorn and Joe Peterson. View Netflix’s documentary: “THE GREAT HACK”. Don’t bother listening to Putin/Trump, Entitled Entities Trolls. Making America Great Again Is Not What Interest these Trolls.

    1. @Bobby Babylon Hey, Bobby go buy a gun before the Democrats take that right away along with free speech 🙂 You’ll need to eat a bullet in 2020 when Trump wins again. Hahahaha!!!!!

    1. Really? what corruption? lIke Barry O’s 15$million dollar house in Cape Cod? Like Pelosi’s $150 million? Get a life f@ggot

    2. HotBoy whippin it Why would Yang…?? Yang is a good man so how can you just say such corruption behind his name?? I like him for VP #Bernie2020 but what you said isn’t funny at all.. This video isn’t FUNNY AT ALL!!

    3. @Dai Lee Air Force, and to a lesser degree, Coast Guard, which is not under Department of Defense, have been apple-polishing. Marines, Army, and Navy have been resisting, especially since they know war is not a video game. Marines had construction money to replace storm damaged housing, taken for the border fence, as well as combat training money. Air Force, with an already exorbitant budget, got authorized a new command. Look at the behavior of AF personnel dealing with Donald, chummy and simpering, like Goering with Hitler, compared to the stubborn solemnity of Marines whenever Donald tries to get close.

    4. @C. Arnold The Air Force you were in is not the button pushing sycophantic Luftwaffe we have now. I can see the difference.

    5. @Lavern Revels Except the Air Force Academy Commandant. He has been trying to produce decency in the Officer Corps.

  3. They are right, no president has ever used the office of the president to steal taxpayer money in such a blatant manner

    1. Jay Gibson trump foundation
      Oh that’s right it was shut down for malfeasance and trump and his family are legally prevented from taking part in a charity for a at least a decade.

    2. @Q Wins So, by your logic, we can blame the Republican Party for the massacres that have increased during this presidential term?

    3. @Mighty Mystery Mass shootings are deep state ops to:
      1) Clog the news cycle when damning evidence is due out on, PedoWood, PedoGovt, NXIVM, Epstein, Leftist Corruption, Social Media Corruption/Censoring, FISA Abuse, .
      2) Create the False Narrative that taking guns away from law abiding citizens is the remedy for gun violence, when in fact, left want open borders so drug, human, and gun smugglers have free and open access to bring illegal items activities to US.
      Comprende?

    1. Like Killary in Benghazi right? or when Obomber funded and created ISIS RIGHT? I mean, only 200,000 Syrian civilians died thanks to Obomber and Killary’s foreign policy. How many people has Trump bombed or invaded? Zero. Get a life f@ggot.

    1. Southern Fried Cynic I really feel Sorry for you. You will have no excuse come judgement day. Your grave is the first stage. I am just really sad for you.

    2. @Kevin Lee The sadness you feel is the logic centers in your brain knowing that you’re lying to yourself. Jesus said he’s be back in the lifetime of his apostles. He lied. Just one of the many untruths and contradictions riddled throughout your holy book. Tell me, what makes your irrational superstition more valid than someone praying to the Sun or the Keebler Elf?

    1. Ralph C     …..  They should just follow to the letter, the US Military Code of Justice ( as the military usually does ) to ALL involved; including the supposed Commander-In-Chief .

    2. It would certainly be a start in the right direction, but I m afraid its going to take a long time to win back any type of good image.

  4. Trump for prison 2020.I prefer presidents who are not criminal’s. 🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒🔒

    1. Black Butterfly smh save ya breath u can’t convince members of chumps cult he can fart in they dinner and they’ll till eat it smgdh

  5. Trump’s daddy should have taught the boy to be a man # PussyAssBitch🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱

    1. ​@Intercat Trump was sent to the New York Military Academy for raping a teenager who lived a few blocks from his families home…

    2. @Intercat But he did not cut him off. That is the difference. I knew a millionaire who let his business manager train his son, and he told him, if he doesn’t measure up, demote him and find someone who does. The only thing military school does for sons of ultra rich men is, teach them to be arrogant. Donald made high rank there. What does that tell you about lack of standards? Why did he think he didn’t need to go to Vietnam? Why did he think he knew more than the generals?

  6. No s**t? Really ? He’s the biggest criminal of the pack, followed by McConnell, Grahm and that stupid Jim Jorden.

    1. @The NeedTo-ImpeachNow Maybe, but that bag of activated sewage will ensure that universal healthcare never enters the Senate if he’s majority leader, and never leaves it if he’s minority leader. I consider him more dangerous to positive change than Trump, and don’t forget that he has no term limit.

    1. Really. I think you’re a deluded npc c@cksmoker who watches CNN and talks a big game about how ‘woke’ he is from Mummy’s basement. Muller had 2 years: big nothing burger. Kind of like your brain, demotwit

    2. @Dave Hauthorn …You don’t think or read but you are either a Putin/Trump Troll or a willing tool of a Fool. At this point even a child can see “The Emperor Has NO Clothes.”

    1. Unlike ‘woke’ people like you. I’m sure you voted for Killary the Kuru Cannibal. Right? Man, being a democrat npc must be tough. Mom’s basement must get really depressing. you can always go to Walmart and buy a shotgun. Suicide is, supposedly, a painless way for Democrats who can’t find a safe space in a trump world full of winners.

    2. We have to come to the realization that these Neolithic Dipshits will never waver in their support of tRump.
      Unless he suddenly becomes Black!

  7. If the American people can’t handle the truth, then they’re gonna to have to handle poverty. Donald Trump is stealing your money.

    1. @Cheryl Ernst And how are Democrat presidents different? The grift continues unchecked under both parties
