Donald Trump says his businesses received payments from foreign governments because he was “doing services” for them.
Trump was at a Fox News town hall on Wednesday, commenting on a recent report from Democratic lawmakers on the House Oversight Committee. The report, published on January 4, said Trump’s businesses had received at least $7.8 million in foreign payments during his presidency.
“That’s a small amount of money. You know, it sounds like a lot of money. That’s small,” Trump said at the town hall.
The former president then explained that the payments were for accommodation at his clubs and hotels.
For fucks sake, they made Jimmy Carter give up a damn peanut farm, but not the orange chucklefuck who has a DC Hotel…
no way that was used to buy access or influence… none at all /s
