After achieving goal #1, trump is on his way to goal #2.

[berg80]

It goes without saying goal #1 was staying out of jail. Not an easy feat considering the overwhelming evidence against him. But when you are rich and powerful lawfare is always available.

Now it's on to numero dos.

At a Dubai Conference, Trump’s Conflicts Take Center Stage​

Sitting in front of a packed auditorium in Dubai, a founder of the Trump family cryptocurrency business made a brief but monumental announcement on Thursday. A fund backed by Abu Dhabi, he said, would be making a $2 billion business deal using the Trump firm’s digital coins.

That transaction would be a major contribution by a foreign government to President Trump’s private venture — one that stands to generate hundreds of millions of dollars for the Trump family. And it is a public and vivid illustration of the ethical conflicts swirling around Mr. Trump’s crypto firm, which has blurred the boundary between business and government.

Zach Witkoff, a founder of the Trump family crypto firm, World Liberty Financial, revealed that a so-called stablecoin developed by the firm would be used to complete the transaction between the state-backed Emirati investment firm MGX and Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world.

Virtually every detail of Mr. Witkoff’s announcement, made during a conference panel with Mr. Trump’s second-eldest son, contained a conflict of interest.
MGX’s use of the World Liberty stablecoin, USD1, brings a Trump family company into business with a venture firm backed by a foreign government. The deal creates a formal link between World Liberty and Binance — a company that has been under U.S. government oversight since 2023, when it admitted to violating federal money-laundering laws.

A deal for a state-backed Emirati firm to use a Trump-affiliated digital coin was announced in a panel that included the president’s son and his business partner, who promised, “This is only the beginning.”

At the risk of being redundant, this is the kind of financial deal autocratic leaders make. The kind of deal even trump fans know down deep is a clear conflict of interest. But he's "their guy" so...........

There was no meaningful evidence against him. There still isn’t.

So, once again bug has posted bullshit.

Rather than display your ignorance, and your indifference to corruption, why not write a letter to your congressman asking that trump's corruption be investigated?

I don't blame you for ignoring the content of the thread. There's no defense for this blatant conflict of interest.

I heard of proposed construction, of a really tall skyscraper being built by trump in Dubai, this morning. Supposed to have the highest swimming pool ever, and, hmm, something else cool that I can't remember.

And the splashy announcement served as an advertisement to crypto investors worldwide about the potential for forming a partnership with a company tied to President Trump, who is listed as World Liberty’s chief crypto advocate.

“We thank MGX and Binance for their trust in us,” said Mr. Witkoff, who is the son of the White House envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff. “It’s only the beginning.”

I have no doubt he's right. The corrupt use of his crypto venture is just beginning. After all, who is going to stop him? Not Pam, not Congress, no one.

You're right OP.

• Goal #1 Stay out of jail
• Goal #2 Reward the billionaires and the rest of the 1% elites he fancies himself a part of
• Goal #3 Finish dismantling the norms and laws (including the Constitution) that he started in his first term
• Goal #4 Enact fascism

We hard working American patriots have quite a lot of work ahead to stop him in his tracks and get America back to what it once was, but by God's grace, we'll do it!

That’s stupid of you. (Redundant, I know). Your dopey post assumes your desired conclusion as a premise.

That's a whataboutism. You appear to be having trouble finding a way to address the clear conflict of interest this deal represents.

As I recall, trumples very much wanted Biden to be impeached over unproven allegations of him taking bribes. This, after numerous congressional investigations.

Shouldn't this deal be investigated?

New Mideast Project Is Latest Trump Company Deal Tied to a Foreign Government​

The Trump Organization agreed to partner on a real estate project in Qatar in the latest of a series of projects tied to foreign governments.

New Mideast Project Is Latest Trump Company Deal Tied to a Foreign Government

The Trump Organization agreed to partner on a real estate project in Qatar in the latest of a series of projects tied to foreign governments.

www.nytimes.com

The Trump Organization has agreed to a new Middle East golf course and real estate deal that involves a Qatari government-owned firm, two weeks before President Trump is set to travel to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates on a state visit.

The project in Qatar, a key U.S. ally and home to a major American military base, is a partnership with Qatari Diar, a real estate company established by the country’s sovereign wealth fund and chaired by a government minister.

Eric Trump, the president’s son who runs the family business, traveled to the Middle East this week to attend a cryptocurrency conference and promote the company’s real estate developments, which include a separate Trump-branded tower in Dubai, the largest city in the Emirates.
