Why is Kushner and Witkoff at the table? Two real estate developers? Anyone else find this strange?
not in the least. They have both been vetted by Congress. Trump grift continues. Jared already got $2b for a fund he has NO experience in. young, jew, jared also has his tin cup out whilst negotiation . He only is looking for $5B. No conflict of interest here. Witkoff showed up at first meeting with Putin with no translator. This is who we have negating on our behalf or on Israel's behalf.
The issue i have is the naked grift. Did other Presidents use family or personal friends for official US business? Of course, we are not naive. FDR was famous for it. But it was all done behind the scenes. Businesses were put in blind trusts.
This group is doing it openly, this makes the American people complicit. That is an issue. Some will say that is better he is just saying out loud what gets said in private. Well, once we know it is on us to act or we are just as guilty. MAGA, the Oldbear's, the Whiterock's, etc are just as guilty as Trump because they know and agree. Transparency is only good when it stops corruption, if it doesn't it approves it. Same with ICE shooting people or Hegseth blowing up boats as law enforcement, or Hegseth ordering no quarter or Bondi snubbing Congress over the Epstein files.
Those things are a problem if not called out and stopped. Either we have law or not. MAGA cant wave the laws on immigration not being followed and then cherry pick the others
