He has leveraged his powerful international platform to promote his developments dozens of times.

He has directed millions of dollars from U.S. taxpayers to his businesses around the globe.

A Chinese state-owned company was awarded a multimillion dollar contract to help develop a Trump golf course in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, amid a U.S.-China trade war.

T-Mobile executives stayed at Trump's Washington hotel while seeking a green light from the federal government for a merger.

His administration authorized foreign governments to rent condos in Trump World Tower in New York.

He has promoted his properties dozens of times while in office, mentioning them in official remarks, everywhere from the United Nations to the Oval Office, and in tweets to his more than 60 million followers, with the frequency increasing each year he’s been president.

Trump and his adult children have frequented Trump resorts around the globe on vacation and on business trips, forcing the Secret Service and other federal agencies accompanying them to spend taxpayer money at Trump properties.

The Secret Service spent more than $250,000 at Trump properties during a five-month period in 2017, according to documents, providing a hint of what it may have spent over the three years of his presidency. There’s no way to determine how much in total the administration is spending because no single entity tracks that money. But a little extrapolation says millions and millions and millions.

More than 100 officials and groups from 57 foreign countries have made visits to a Trump property

State-owned companies in China, Saudi Arabia and South Korea are building Trump resorts while other countries are constructing roads and donating public land for new developments

In the nation’s capital, Trump’s hotel has become a place to see and be seen for candidates, Trump staffers and lawmakers. Trump leases the building from the federal government despite language in the contract that says no “elected official of the Government of the United States ... shall be admitted to any share or part of this Lease, or to any benefit that may arise therefrom.”

That doesn't even bring into the picture Trump's benefits from tax changes that benefit real estate investors.
Wow! For a guy who doesn't do anything he sure is busy. Lots of Energy, giddy up, and go get 'em. Very successful. Most politicians can't match Trump no matter how hard they try. But they still manage to screw us while they make things worse. Trump makes America Great Again!

Tweety is an awful man, waving a book he hasn’t read, in front of a church he doesn’t attend, invoking laws he doesn’t understand, against fellow Americans he sees as enemies, wielding a military he dodged serving, to protect power he gained via accepting foreign interference, exploiting fear and anger he loves to stoke, after failing to address a pandemic he was warned about, and building it all on a bed of constant lies and childish inanity. This is not partisan. It is simply about recognizing the moral vacuum that is now pretending to lead.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
