# Conrad Black used to be a bigtime player, a financial tycoon. He was convicted of embezzlement and financial wrong doing. He served jail time. Let's put this in perspective. The crooks who instigated Mortgage-Backed Securities scam, got off relatively Scott-free. The lame-brain managers of Nortel got off relatively Scott-free. In the high-flying financial world, you have to be incredibly dishonest to be convicted of anything beyond a slapped wrist. So let's put it bluntly... Conrad Black is a rotten liar and compulsive thief.
# It's no surprise that Conrad Black has weighed in to endorse Donald Trump's surprising victory. Black says that Trump was right to sham the Democratic and Republican parties. In this, Black is correct. Both of the major parties welcome foreign financiers to fund their campaigns. Hence, the elected presidents for the last 25 years have been heavily indebted to Arab and Oriental financiers. It's refreshing for Trump to fund his campaign basically from scratch.
# However, Conrad Black goes on to applaud Trump for calling climate change a "liberal" hoax. This makes no sense unless you happen to believe in Ouija boards and crystal balls. Conrad Black should know better. His native land, Canada, is melting like crazy in the far north. It seems that Black hasn't learned a damn thing from his sojourn in jail. He's still a rotten liar and compulsive thief. He'll tell you "not to worry" as your island sinks below the sea.
