Trump Tower is coming to Saudi Arabia | CNN Businesswww.cnn.com The Trump Organization revealed plans Monday to develop a luxury Trump Tower in Saudi Arabia.

common gratuity, nothing to see here

dammit I was gonna make this joke

That whole ceremony years ago, where they all touched that globe (glowing orb) was so perfectly tailored to the type of stuff Trump loves too.

it makes me think america should push green technology very hard in an attempt to make oil less valuable

It was in his official capacity!

Makes me think he's going to offer to disappear some people when he's potus in order to get that approval.

Sometimes I think of a story former National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes liked to tell of walking into his room in KSA when he was on an official Obama trip and finding a whole suitcase full of jewels on his bed (standard practice, apparently). Wonder what happened to those in the Trump Admin!

(There's a process for reporting this kind of thing; the State Department usually takes possession of these; Ben is a stand-up guy; etc.)

Wow, amazing.

Trump Organization Signs Up to Put Its Brand on a New Saudi Towerwww.nytimes.com The residential high-rise tower in Jeddah is the latest of several developments that the former president’s company has planned for the Middle East.

Lol

The kind of far-right politicians who otherwise have no time at all for anything Arab and/or Muslim. Maybe it's a classic case of "they're bastards, but they're *our* bastards"?

He's going down for a mere $3 million? That's actually pretty comical compared to what goes on here.

Wow? Come on. Look how easy it is to buy people. And they have done it everywhere.

Breaking news: Bolsonaro revealed to be the 20th hijacker on 9/11.

They are playing a part in our demise.

Shocking! Who would have ever guessed 🤨

You mean the guys behind 9-11? We love those guys.

tacky tacky tacky

Jack Smith has included wording about “a former President selling nuclear secrets to a foreign power” in at least three legal filings that I’m aware of. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what happened here.

The unspoken part of the speculation of what Trump would really do vis a vis Gaza is what the Saudis want him to do. MBS would surely love to see Gaza peeps go to the gas chambers, but he knows that 99 % of Sauds are against Israel. Tricky, tricky.

Well we already have the House of Saud's good pal Jared on the record calling Gaza "a real estate opportunity ". So, Lex Luthor levels of evil, in other words.

There's a reason obviously that Biden suddenly fell back in love with MBS

Come on. Gtfo of here. He’s not at all in love with Saudi

Of course not it's ridiculous that he would go from not speaking to MBS to photo op just because money was involved

There is zero evidence that Biden took money from anyone ever. It’s pretty obvious why he had to to the photo op if you were paying attention

Saudis buying $billions of arms from the US every year influences nothing just like paying Trump for years of unoccupied hotel rooms changes nothing Saudi control over global oil prices also influences nothing

I thought this was a dissent collar at first glance.

I for one can't believe Crown Prince Bonesaw would be involved in any funny business

In the US this would just be a gratuity!

Money can't buy happiness, of course, but it certainly can buy politicians. Several of them, as it turns out.
