    This. This is why the outrage. Being lied about on the national stage by the President of the USA for the purposes of retribution. Which part of that do you not understand? Tell me so I can explain it more clearly to you - I'm happy to make the effort. What a strange question. No-one ever said the Trump organisation would be obligated to hire Vindman on a private basis. It doesn't sound like you really understand what's going on.

    Well, it does say "Logical Thinking." right there at the end, so that clearly makes it logical--just in case we weren't sure.

    I was on the National Skydiving Museum Committee with Bill Ottley and Chris Needles from 2002 to 2006. From the beginning of the Museum and Hall of Fame project all agreed no financial burden would be on the USPA Members. The Museum would stand alone financially from donations and charging admission. Building cost started at $5,000,000 on FREE land next to USPA HQ in Fredericksburg Virginia. Now we don’t know what the building will cost on land that’s not free in a third location in Orlando. Giving our dues money to the International Skydiving Museum building should be voted by the Members, not by the BOD who are supposed to represent the Members.

    Discussion is over, the US Senate decreed in essence that anything the President does in order to win is OK. Anything. ANYTHING.

    I've said many times to research what I post here. I discovered today, that the ISMHOF paid Jim McCormick 95,670 in 2017 and 73,509 in 2016. Thats a total of 169,179. It's on page 28 of their 990 IRS forms. You can find those on guidestar.org

    A handful of people friend request me that I take on tandems and I don't mind it, but sometimes I don't accept some of them. I would love to hear from someone that I took on a tandem that started skydiving though. On a side note, this last summer I took a girl on a tandem and she went home and sent me a creepy message on FB. We have been dating ever since.

    Probably. Unlike the Trump Foundation it wasn't ordered to be shut down. The Clinton's and their off spring were also not banned from running foundations. Unlike the Trump clan.

    Well, of course. When you talk about liberalism or conservativism you are talking about what defines those positions. Actual liberals or conservatives are individuals, and will act out of their own personal beliefs and drives. (And often will espouse positions not related to their stated alignment on that particular political axis.)

    No. In reality, it is not. In reality, American liberals support equality, civil liberties, social justice and a regulated market economy. American conservatives support traditionalism, government support of Judeo-Christian values, individualism, free market economies and organized cultural defenses against perceived threats from outsiders.

    This is one of the few areas where I will "defend" Trump. Real Estate valuations are not straight forward calculations and it is not at all uncommon to have differing valuations for different purposes. Generally you would want to argue a valuation differently for: taxes, financing and insurance purposes. This is also when you contract a firm to perform a valuation they will generally ask you for what purpose you want to complete the valuation. Under normal circumstances this is not illegal. However, I can certainly see Trump Corp providing false information used in the valuations, which could be illegal.

    It actually is. But you can tell yourself whatever as well.
