No surprise that everything Trump accuses others of, such as Biden being a criminal or the election being stolen, are exactly the things that Trump has actually done. Just look at his record.
WASHINGTON — After his fourth indictment, bringing his total count of felony charges to 91, former President Donald Trump last week posted a video online accusing President Joe Biden and his family of being criminals.
“The Biden crime family,” he claimed, had received millions of dollars from foreign countries. “I believe we have a compromised president,” Trump said, adding, “He’s a Manchurian candidate. That’s why Crooked Joe is letting other countries walk all over the United States.”
For Trump, outrage is a selective commodity when it comes to presidential families taking millions of dollars from foreign countries. During his four years in the White House and in the more than 2 1/2 years since, Trump and his relatives have been on the receiving end of money from around the globe in sums far greater than anything Hunter Biden, the president’s son, reportedly collected.
Unlike other modern presidents, Trump never gave up control of his sprawling business with its interests in multiple countries, nor did he forswear foreign business even as president. He shattered norms in his money making and unabashed boosting of his family’s company. The luxury hotel he opened down the street from the White House, for example, became the favored destination for lobbyists, dealmakers and foreign governments, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain, which paid handsomely for accommodations, galas and more.
Trump also permitted his family to take positions in government that blurred the lines when it came to their private interests. Unlike Hunter Biden, Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner both served on the White House staff, where they could shape policies of concern to overseas businesses.
Kushner was heavily involved in setting the administration’s approach to the Middle East and made multiple contacts in the region. After turning in his White House badge, Kushner started a private equity firm with $2 billion in funds from Saudi Arabia and hundreds of millions more from other Arab countries that stood to benefit from U.S. policies and have an interest in a possible second Trump administration.
