Epic fail. From your own link...

. The government is not known to have paid for the rooms for Trump and his family members at his properties but it has paid for staffers and Secret Service agents to accompany the president.

And even better!

The last sentence lol. Last president or VP to do that was...Joe Biden

What stories does Hannity and Carlson spin? Most of the time, they are the ones exposing the liberal media’s lies and hypocrisy.

98% of the mainstream media is liberal. I think the danger is overwhelmingly one sided Leftist bias.

If anyone in that family cared one whit about avoiding even the slightest whiff of impropriety, not one cent would have gone to any property with the Trump name on it.

But they don’t, so here we are.

There’s no impropriety. Those properties are not own by Trump but by shareholders. Any company legally entitled to any funds are rightfully theirs. I doubt Trump himself is even aware of it or can do anything about it.

Leftist Washington Post are just trying to smear Trump and Leftists are ready to run with the propaganda.

Oh for God's sake.

Doesn't anyone ever do any research?

No US monies were given to Iran. Nothing. Nada. Nyet. Get it? Nothing.

That money was Iran's money frozen. Iran got it's own money back in a deal. You may not like the deal but it was a deal.

Please do some research before posting absurdities.

Oh, and MAGA !

It was a giveaway to a terrorist supporting regime that in turn used it to strengthen their military that potentially will be used to hurt us.

Compared with trillions he has injected into the American economy (before coronavirus), you take that trade off everyday and twice on Sunday.

Oh, please.

The president pushed to have the G7 at one of his golf courses.
He encouraged Pence to go out of his way to stay at one of his properties in Ireland.
Military stays at one of his properties in Scotland have increased exponentially since he became president.

The list goes on.

But, yeah, keep believing he’s not aware or that any of this doesn’t look really, really bad.
