Trump's thefts in his first 100 days as US pres 2.0

Watch these two videos (click below) of senator Murphy listing the many many acts by Trump or his loyalists and family members, to enrich the Trump clan.  Many of these are unconstitutional, illegal, and/or immoral while US president.

Trump has taken profiteering to another level at a pace unheard of from any other US president.  What is also different is how publicly he is enriching himself, as though publicity will cleanse his dirty dealings.

One way he is making money is through payments to him by people who are being investigated for possible transgressions, or payments to him by people who want their businesses to make big profits.  Trump arranges for investigations to be dropped or for laws to be changed that favour the businesses that are making payments to Trump, such as oil companies. 

Trump is selling personal meetings with him: $5m for a meeting, and $1m for dinner.  There was a time when a mayor who charged $200 for personal meetings "would be arrested and run out of town" according to Sen Murphy.

Trump has brokered a deal so that PGA golf tournaments are now held at his golf courses, which the PGA had refused previously.

So many people or companies who donated to Trump's inaugaration fund subsequently called on him and received his favours, such as investigations to be dropped or for them to be pardoned.

Trump has accepted a $400m aeroplane from Quataris, which he may personally retain when he leaves office.

His son and the mid East envoy foremed a private company that received an investment of $2bn. This is the envoy - someone who has political connections, as does his son, i.e., the $2bn donation is a price for access and politcal or personal favors the Quataris are seeking from Trump.

Now, Trump has removed laws so it is no longer illegal for US companies to bribe foreign governments to get lucrative business contracts.  This change is an open invitation by Trump to US companies to bribe people for profit without fear of being convicted.
