During his first term as president, the Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC became a symbol of the issue, as a go-to place for lobbyists, foreign diplomats, and allies to stay and spend.
Critics argued that the hotel created a way for Trump to profit indirectly from his office. He faced accusations and lawsuits alleging he violated the US Constitution's ban on presidents receiving foreign emoluments – or profiting from their office.
But experts said the growth of his business empire, which now includes a publicly traded social media company, a cryptocurrency firm, and ties to a Saudi-backed golf league, makes it possible for anyone hoping to curry favour to move money more quietly and in much greater sums.
It's true and obvious but it's new corruption, not the awful Arab deep state that has been calling the shots in the Democratic party and probably some other deep state in the main stream Republicans. Change is good in this case

You want two opposite things.
DeleteWhen I point out that Biden's family is just as corrupt as Trumps, you accuse me of whitewashing Trump. But here you are whitewashing Biden.
