I think Sperandeo engages in myth-spinning there.

Trump DC hotel sales pitch boasts of millions to be made from foreign governments

https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/14/polit...tch/index.html

Quote:
In its effort to sell off the lease to the Trump International Hotel in Washington, the Trump Organization has put together a glossy investor brochure complete with pictures showcasing the hotel's grandiose architecture, its central location and its spa's Himalayan salt chamber.

The hotel's biggest selling point though, according to a copy of the brochure seen by CNN, is the one thing that the Trump family insists it didn't take advantage of: profiting off foreign governments.

"Tremendous upside potential exists for a new owner to fully capitalize on government related business upon rebranding of the asset," reads the 46-page investor pitch.

The Trump Organization insists that its refusal to solicit foreign business has cost it more than $9 million. According to the brochure, those "sacrifices" include turning away 17,100 room nights in 2019, resulting in $5.3 million in lost room revenue and $3.9 million in lost food and beverage revenue.

The investor pitch is an explicit acknowledgment of how important foreign business is to the 263-room luxury hotel in the Old Post Office building blocks from the White House.

This, of course, assumes there is a "civilized world"....

"a moral litmus test" What a load of Texas barnyard by product. But if you insist on being "civilized", we can always remand our POW's over to some of our 3rd world allies for interrogation.

The mere threat of turning over a POW to his fellow countrymen for interrogation gives most of the them diarrhea of the mouth.

DUH --- IT IS ALLAY HUMOROUS TO WATCH THE NEVER TRUMPETERS SO BLINDED BY THEIR IRRATIONALITY THAT THEY FAIL TO READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE.

The reason the sales brochure lists for selling the property is the Trump organization REUSES to capitalize on sales TO FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS.

THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION POINTS THAT A NEW OWER WOULD NOT BE HANDICAPPED BY THE EMOLUMENTS HANDICAP.

Trump attacks ambassador even as she describes feeling threatened by him

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...c7e_story.html

In normal times, this would be called witness tampering and obstruction of justice, and Donny would soon be behind bars, where he so belongs.

Bret Baier @BretBaier
That was a turning point in this hearing so far. She was already a sympathetic witness & the President’s tweet ripping her allowed Schiff to point it out real time characterizing it as witness tampering or intimidation - adding an article of impeachment real-time.

Wow....this is really unprecedented. @realDonaldTrump and Amb Yovanovitch are talking to each other in real time through @Twitter and Television... Something I never thought I would ever see.

Bloomberg Pouring $100M in Anti-Trump Ad Campaign

https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/loca...564994562.html

Excellent. Hammer the ignorant MAGAMorons with the truth about this vile, disgusting, self-serving piece of crap, and how he is laughing at them behind their backs.

Quote:

The campaign, which targets voters in four general election battleground states — Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — begins running on Friday, according to Bloomberg spokesman Jason Schechter.
