Lawrence O'Donnell: Source says Russian oligarchs co-signed Trump's Deutsche Bank loans

O’Donnell is dumb as hell for pulling this. It won’t matter one way or the other to Trump supporters, they’ll either deny if it is true or willfully ignore it.

Where this kind of roughshod journalism hurts is if it is wrong that should had been determined with some shoe leather journalism not in the eye of the public.

And, yes, I know O’Donnell is not a journalist, like Sean Hannity, so he is free to say whatever he wants but the network should be responsible for what he puts out there.
You act as if hardcore Dems do anything different?
Pragmatists, like the majority of the country, are happy to root out any criminal wrongdoers.
Fortunately for Trumpy, and those who support our President, this is nothing more than shady witchhunt powergrab bullshit...since Day 1.

Until then - keep serving up and wolfing down those NothingBurgers..

And now I have to rethink my position on irresponsible journalism. Thanks for nothing.

MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell says he has a source who told him Russian oligarchs signed off loans given to President Trump by Deutsche Bank.

Lawyers for the German lender told a federal appeals court Tuesday that the bank has documents sought by Democrat-led House committees, which subpoenaed Deutsche Bank and Capital One for financial records related to Trump, his family, and businesses, but declined to reveal if they have Trump's tax returns.

While the New York Times reports Deutsche Bank, which has done business with Trump for two decades, does have some of Trump's personal and corporate tax returns, O'Donnell told colleague Rachel Maddow in the hand-off between their shows Tuesday evening he can go a bit further.


"This single source close to Deutsche Bank has told me that the Trump — Donald Trump's loan documents there show that he has co-signers. That's how he was able to obtain those loans. And that the co-signers are Russian oligarchs," he said.

A shocked Maddow replied, "What? Really?"

"That would explain, it seems to me, every kind word Donald Trump has ever said about Russia and Vladimir Putin, if true, and I stress the 'if true' part of this," O'Donnell added.


O'Donnell later said this source told him that Trump's tax returns reveal "he pays little to no income tax in some years."

He added that his source said Trump, a longtime real estate businessman, would not have been able to obtain his loans with Deutsche Bank without these co-signers he described as "Russian billionaires close to Vladimir Putin."

"If true," O'Donnell said, "that would explain every kind word Donald Trump has ever said about Russia and Vladimir Putin. If true. If true, that would be a significant factor in Vladimir Putin's publicly stated preference for presidential candidate Donald Trump over presidential candidate Hillary Clinton."
It’s nonsense like this that makes the media lose whatever is left of their credibility.
CNN and MSNBC ratings should be proof enough that they have ruined their brands with fake news.

P.S.- I bet Maddow was his “secret source” lol
 
And yet you always seem to have an opinion about CNN or MSNBC. But, evidently, never about Fox. How is that?

Oh, and where do you get your news to stay informed?
I sit at my screens for 9 hours a day.
I have a Bloomberg terminal, Reuters, Dow Jones, Briefing, CNBC feed, etc etc. if there’s news anywhere in the world I will see it.
By the time I log off the last thing I want to do is watch the news. Especially cable crap which is propaganda ON BOTH SIDES
