i don't think white collar workers understand the real angst amongst the people who have lost out in the last 10-15 years. i don't, and i bet most people here don't. just looking at employment numbers might be misleading.

This situation gives me further evidence that in a Presidential race the voters should be allowed to vote both sides Republican and Democrat. We are after all trying to vote for the best possible person to run our country. I realize some would try to vote for the weakest "opposing" candidate but most of us would in fact vote for whom we would rather have as our President should our choice lose. For me now the Republican side is very frightening. There isn't a choice there anymore that I can see bringing our country together should they win.

Political fundraising, convictions, and tampering[edit]

Kushner is a major donor to the Democratic Party, most notably to former New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevey.^[15] In 2005, following an investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey,^[15] Kushner was convicted of making illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion and witness tampering.^[16] Chris Christie, then the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, negotiated a plea agreement with him and he was sentenced to two years in prison.^{[1][17] [18]} He has since been released and humiliatingly dis-barred. ^[12][19]

Last spring, a Homeland Security special agent testified that EB-5 applicants from China, Russia, Pakistan and Malaysia "had been approved in as little as 16 days, with files lacking basic law enforcement queries." And a report last year by the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General found politically connected participants may have received favorable treatment, citing projects involving Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe and Hillary Clinton’s brother, Tony Rodham.
A spokesman for Governor McAuliffe said the report demonstrates that he, “along with many other bipartisan individuals and businesses," asked Homeland Security "to fulfill its obligation to adjudicate the applications that were before them in a timely fashion.”
Rodham said in a phone interview that his interaction with Homeland Security was appropriate.
