He's again trying to deflect from his disclosure problem, which he never did.

He’s probably been helping the Russians with their money laundering.

I'm not certain how this works, but it sounds rather shady that with all his "personal money" he deserves a handout. I may be misinformed.

I thought you had to personally live in a HUD home for a certain time period, too.

If he’s investing in poor communities, why would he not want anyone to know?

Republicans know how to lie, cheat and spin the truth, not much else.

Merely buying foreclosed real estate is neither illegal nor unethical. If we try to make it more than what it is, we kind of look foolish.

That said, he his hardly investing in poor communities out of a sense of Noblesse Oblige.

I fully expect there is a lot more to this story.
