Don't think it did Berlusconi much harm!

Trump's lawyer paid the money prior to the election, presumably for the benefit of Trump’s campaign, it should be considered a campaign contribution. As such, it would be in violation of federal election law, because it wasn’t reported and it exceeded the maximum allowable contribution amount.
There’s a maximum amount that someone can contribute to a campaign, and $130k exceeds that. Additionally, campaigns are legally required to report contributions that they receive, and this payment was not reported.
If Trump knew about the payment to Clifford, that would mean that he and his campaign knowingly received a contribution that exceeded the legal limit, and kept it from the Federal Elections Commission.

The UK will not be exempt from Trump's steel tariffs. Only Mexico and Canada: https://twitter.com/CommunityUnion/s...52647472029696

They're a big customer for the UK steel industry.

Australia might be getting an exemption too actually.

That may because while we are still stuck in the EU, we trade as one bloc, if he grants the UK an exemption, that's giving the EU an exemption as well, which he has said he will not do.

NAFTA has ensured that Mexico and Canada are exempt. The US needs to do more of this type of thing, as Canada has done.

Maybe if we gave Trump two tickets to the Royal Wedding he might reconsider?

Looks like things are changing. He seems to be listening for a change.

The problem here is the "unmentionable" in the wood pile that may be caused by any tariffs he sees as protecting US industry.
The US solar industry is already laying off workers due to tariffs.

I think it's fine to give Trump credit for the continued good economy. But you can thank Obama as well as the trend line is the same. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.db5428d438b4. So it doesn't have to be one or the other.

Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation
I think we could see an increase if he doesn't listen to good advisors.
Pity your graph is from last year as reports seem to show the rate of unemployment dropping even further.

The chart is from data at the end of 2017 so only a few months ago. It would go down to 4.1% if it went up to now.

0.6% drop in a few months not bad then as opposed to a graph covering 17yrs.

The fact that more people are in work is worth celebrating.
