Trump Money Deals: Did Saudi Arabia Replace Russia?

[Procrustes Stretched]

Mr. Trump and his children were always going on about how they didn't need American money, that they had whatever money they needed, because of connections with Russia.

and I'm not sure you can believe any of this as it's the NYT:

The above is only about who Mr. Trump was indebted to, not who he was trying to make deals with, even when he had to hide it from the American public.

Elaine Kamarck writes that a key component of whatever the public is able to learn from the president's financial records will be his ties to Russia. Would that explain his consistent advocacy for a friendlier stance toward Vladimir Putin?

The above all goes the premise of Mr. Trump's deals with Russian money. Now let's address the Saudi money deal.

Shortly after being indicted on charges of paying hush money to an adult-film actress, Donald Trump sat for a deposition in his separate financial fraud trial and bragged about being able to sell his properties at an inflated rate to Saudi Arabian interests.

A New York judge noted the boasts in a major ruling on Tuesday that found Trump and his company had committed fraud for years. The judge further suggested that such prices might have had more to do with buying influence than buying properties — a relevant point given Trump’s controversial post-presidency business arrangements with the Saudis.

In his ruling, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron pointed to what he viewed as a particularly strained argument from Trump: that the property values Trump inflated to increase his perceived net worth could be correct because someone might pay them.

The plot thickens and...

And Trump repeatedly pointed to a particular someone: the Saudis.

“He also seems to imply that the numbers cannot be inflated because he could find a ‘buyer from Saudi Arabia’ to pay any price he suggests,” Engoron wrote.

Then, in a conspicuously inserted footnote, Engoron added: “This statement may suggest influence buying more than savvy investing.”

Let's put off speaking about the Trump family/Jared and the suspicious Saudi deals.

It seems that for any self-respecting District Attorney or US Prosecutor, Mr. Trump is the gift that keeps on giving.

I believe I may have been wrong in my assumption(s) in answering: "Trump Money Deals: Did Saudi Arabia Replace Russia?"

I knew about Trump's earlier deals with the Saudis, but hadn't considered their paying him short money to get him out of trouble on things he'd overpaid for, as bailing him out. But it appears on some level that this is exactly what they've been doing together -- each making Deals with what the other could call, the Devil.



Look at all the Trump people glowing while meeting the money men.

Ivanka’s Trademark Requests Were Fast-Tracked In China After Trump Was Elected​

The Chinese government granted a total of 41 trademarks to companies linked to Ivanka Trump by April of 2019—and the trademarks she applied for after her father became president got approved about 40% faster than those she requested before Donald Trump’s victory in the 2016 election


On March 29, 2017, Ivanka Trump, the eldest daughter of President Trump, became an official government employee, joining her husband, Jared Kushner, as an adviser to her father.

The day before that appointment, Ivanka applied for 17 new trademarks with the Chinese government.

In early May of 2018, ZTE, a Chinese electronics maker, said that it had halted “major operating activities” after being penalized by the United States Department of Commerce for breaking sanctions and selling electronics to Iran and North Korea.

Yet, in mid-May, President Trump surprisingly reversed course when he indicated a willingness to rethink the punishment and vowed to work with Chinese President Xi Jinping to prevent the collapse of the ZTE, which employs 75,000 people, with Trump tweeting, “Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”

That same month, May of 2018, amid tense trade negotiations between China and the United States, China approved seven Ivanka trademarks, according to Alexander’s book, White House, Inc.

Ayup.

A Saudi prince helped save Trump from bankruptcy—twice

Trump's financial ties to the kingdom go back a very long way.

In 1991, Donald J. Trump was a mid-tier real estate developer with $900 million in debt, a collapsing casino business, and a name perhaps best known for a headline-dominating split with his wife Ivana. With his empire at risk of falling apart, Trump was searching for cash everywhere; his father even illegally bought $3.35 million worth of casino chips and never gambled them, to help Trump make a massive bond payment a year earlier.

A helpful burst of cash from a Saudi prince eased some tension with his creditors. Alwaleed bin Talal bought Trump’s yacht for somewhere between $18 million and $20 million (reports vary). It wasn’t a great bit of business for Trump—he had bought it from the Sultan of Brunei three years earlier for a reported $29 million.

In 1995, Trump was still in deep trouble—and Alwaleed swooped in again. The prince, who calls himself the “Warren Buffett of Saudi Arabia,” took over Trump’s 51% stake in his beloved New York Plaza hotel. As a result, Trump’s creditors forgave $125 million of his debt.
