It isn't right. It just isn't. But the base won't budge on this.

It's elitism at its finest. A rich President with a private company manages to get the govt. to hold one of the biggest international invents at HIS property.
'
And stop with the 'he won't make a dime off of this' -- it is bull.

You know that from the G7 event on that the Doral will list hosting the G7 on its resume.

You are not funny, you're sad. Think it thru next time before you mouth off.
I love when someone posts Trump said...and then we are suppose to believe it. REmember STormy Daniel -- he lied to us all about that. Rememer the quid pro quo lied.......etc. etc.etc.
He cheated on three wives.
He cheated subcontractors out of thier fees.

And you say' Trump said" like we are suppose to believe him -- lolololololol.

Even if you are naive to believe that Trump Corporation will not make money during the G7, you can't be so naive that you believe this won't be part of the promoting of this facility in the future. Free advertising....so to speak.

the sponsoring government. and for the record, Camp David would require the LEAST amount of upgrades, assuming it was really safe a decade ago

You know what I meant too bad you don’t know what a fool Trump is playing this country for.

If the President of your HOA wanted to hire his brothers landscape company you’d all pitch a fit. Trumpers know this is beyond the pale but all that matters is “triggering the libz”.

it IS difficult to quantify, and it is the only boost that Trump, Inc gets. I wonder what typical short and long term boosts other hotels have gotten in the past? That would be a good place to start.

it would depend. is the brother qualified, and is his price the same as others?

I didn't say anything about punctuation.

Tell us how he gets the salary back after he gives it away to charity.

I've never been that big of a fan of his. I didn't vote for him in the primary. I wasn't going to vote for him until it became clear he had a chance (I'm talking like a week before the election). I think he acts "Un-Presidential" and wish he'd never hit send on 90% of his tweets.

From what I've read, he's wrong on Syria right now. He obstructed justice when he asked Comey to "take it easy" Flynn.

But Lord, I supported him the night of Nov 8 and Nov 9, 2016. And then again the Women's March - histrionics based on rumor and innuendo and falsely-stoked fears. It laid bare any claims of "impartiality" among the media and was a glorious thing to watch.

the Cloisters is expensive. 2012 was held at Camp David as a last minute replacement for Chicago.
