What was all of your take's on Clayton's take on Bigger Pockets itself? It's fairly obvious he harbors some major hostility towards the site and monitors it often.

I look at it the same as his comments about you, @Jay Hinrichs, and Todd Burton, its simply more deflection. Just like when some nameless faceless members here occasionally attack my or your's or anyone's responses to threads by trying to discredit the poster with something either totally false or irrelevant to the conversation, rather than actually responding with what they believe is false and countering that with their own facts

His comment of, "[...] on BiggerPockets and those a**clowns and the liberal media" perked my ears. The 1MM+ members here weren't a bunch of "a**clowns" when his podcast featured here was likely pumping some serious leads $$$ his way. And in what way is this some sort of liberal agenda? Come on Clayton!

All of his positions are straight from a textbook on damage control for frauds, its crazy to see how fast he is progressing through them after sticking his head in the sand for so long:

  • - Ignore the problem and hope it goes away.
  • - "I'm a victim just like you!"
  • - "He's a victim just like you!"
  • - Deny ever having done business with naysayers
  • - Attempt to discredit naysayers as uneducated (ie "a**clowns")
  • - Claim others are lying to further advance themselves.
  • - Claim others are lying for a certain agenda (political, etc)
  • - Sue the previous 4 to try to keep them quiet
  • - Go back to step 1 and try again
