But, as Paul Harvey used to say, "And now you know ... the rest of the story."
clo-baby, you need to learn to count to ten before posting the hysterical, FAKE NEWS BS your leftist betters constantly feed you. With all the thousands of layers of egg build-up on your face, one would think that you should know better by now, eh?
"A massive scandal": Jennifer Rubin pretty worked up over anti-Trump Politico article that underwent "one hell of an update"
http://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2020/04/25/a-massive-scandal-jennifer-rubin-pretty-worked-up-over-anti-trump-politico-article-that-underwent-one-hell-of-an-update/
This is actually one of conservative blogger Jennifer Rubin's saner tweets, but she still sounded the alarm over a Politico article claiming that President Trump still owes the Bank of China ten of millions of dollars for a loan "which matures in the middle of what could be Trump's second term."
Isaac Stone Fish ~ U.S. President Donald Trump owes tens of millions of dollars to the Bank of China. This should be a massive scandal, as it’s an astonishingly huge conflict of interest with China. I explain why, in a thread:
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/24/trump-biden-china-debt-205475
Isaac Stone Fish ~ If Trump wins in 2020, what should happen to that loan? How can a sitting president owe tens of millions of dollars to a foreign government? It's insane.
Jennifer Rubin ~ Whoa, whoa!!! This is why there is an emoluments clause. Presidents cannot have financial interests dependent on foreign govts.
But, as per usual with these hysterical libtard hissy fits, there is a YUGE problem ...
However, Politico notes that it has since updated the article and its headline and added some additional reporting to the story:
After the first version of this article was published, the Bank of China issued a statement Friday evening stating that it sold its debt on the building weeks after the 2012 loan on the property. Vornado Realty Trust owns 70 percent of the building.
"On November 7, 2012 several financial institutions including the Bank of China participated in a commercial mortgage loan of $950 million to Vornado Realty Trust," said Peter Reisman, managing director and chief communications officer of Bank of China U.S.A. "Within 22 days, the loan was securitized and sold into the [commercial mortgage-backed securities] market, as is a common practice in the industry. Bank of China has not had any ownership interest in that loan since late November 2012."
So the loan was sold within 22 days back in November 2012?
Yep. They're in such a rush to manufacture dirt on President Trump that they do not perform any basic journalistic practices of verifying the story before they blast it all over the country to their slobbering useful idiots, like clo. BWHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
