Trump Has Spent Nearly One
Third of His Presidency Visiting
His Own Business Properties
.
According to a recent report, Donald Trump
has visited his properties a total of 326 times at
the expense of taxpayers since his inauguration.
The number of days Trump has spent at his own
property since 2017 has been found to equal about
one third of the days he's been in the White House.
The report also found that over 130 trips have been made
to Trump properties by 111 foreign officials, calling into
question whether or not Trump is guilty of corruption.
This corrupt relationship between the Trump
Organization and the White House leaves the
American public in the dark about whether
presidential decisions and policy are being made
in the best interest of the country or in the best
interest of the president's own bottom line, Noah Bookbinder, Executive Director
of CREW, to ‘Newsweek’.
Since 2017, the Trump Organization has made
nearly $6 million from political groups, with
various events being held on Trump properties.
Trump's ability to profit is due to
his refusal to divert ownership of his
business empire while he holds office.
No other president has retained ownership of a massive global business while serving, so this president's self-enrichment and conflicts of interest represent a unique and unprecedented affront to the democracy, Noah Bookbinder, Executive Director
of CREW, to ‘Newsweek’
