Companies that suck Trump are taking it to a completely new level
Washington-The companies that expect favorable results of the Trump administration have committed to at least $ 63 million to the future presidential library of Donald Trump, according to a new analysis of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.).
Beyond that, other promised gifts and donations in kind of special interest groups provide the total value of the gifts that are presented to Trump’s future library to at least half a billion dollars.
“The moment of these donations, arriving while Trump sits in office and makes critical decisions That can affect the same donors: it raises serious ethical concerns about potential bribery and Peddling of influence, “says Warren’s report, first obtained by News themezone.” Many of the gifts came in the form of settlements to the demands presented by Trump. “
The Massachusetts senator is only highlighting the known gifts and money that commit to Trump’s library; There are other companies promising donations that are not yet public. But its report marks the first time that all the money and known gifts that flow to the president’s future library are established in one place.
