Just read the highlight points from his own book. The art of the deal! 🤣
It refers to corruption on all four points.
° Winning at all costs and viewing transactions as zero-sum (if you're not winning, you're losing)
° Self-promotion and confidence bordering on boastfulness
° Leveraging perception and image as negotiating tools
° Dominance in deals—the focus is relentlessly on his advantage and control

🤔300 billion ?...
To a foreign country ?...
So my first question is where is this money coming from ?
'Cause, call me an old cynic but if it were money already in existence in the U.S economy i think there are a few million at home (many probably Republican supporters !) who would rather it was spent there before any of it headed out the door to a country you've been told you're at war with.
Second, if this money is for any kind of industrial rebuild, if i were American I'd want to name check and rigorously examine which companies were getting the work; I'd want to know who owns these companies and who's on their boards.
Cause you know, money for your mates and jobs for the boys (big money party donors) sounds likely doesn't it ?
And finally, why hasn't the Epstein inquiry been fully published and made public ?

@JimboSaturn what is new about that? You do know he never just gives away money without enriching himself and family.
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
@samueltyler2 duh of course! Yep, so much for America first.

At least 100 billion is Iran’s money, frozen assets.
Roundandroundwego · 61-69
No, that's just how we Americans talk about returning the Iranian money we made on our subordinates steal.

@NerdyPotato
Nerdy, you've lost this discussion hands down. Killing the Ayatollah did not destroy Iran which is why Iran does not need rebuilding. And in fact, oil fields in Iran were not destroyed because that would be counter-productive to the USA trying to get oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, but I know you don't understand that part.
Is the Trump administration incompetent? No, just Pete Hegseth is incompetent which is why the USA lost the war in Iran.
And no Nerdy, you never thought I was xenophobic, you thought I was Racist and you thought I was Racist because you don't understand the definition of the word "Racist", you poor boy.
Try to keep your dialogue simple like yourself next time Nerdy, only because you might come out of a discussion in better shape the next time around.

@swirlie oh, you know my thoughts better than I do, huh? Then there is indeed no need to write anything that down because you already know everything.

You would also want to talk about he earned many yearly contracts for oil delivery from Venezuela and America. Wise people can understand what he has done. Democrats do not need to understand. I will put the sequence of events. Now it is upon you to decide what is happening in the world.
1) Venezuela is the largest reservoir of unearthed crude oil but being on a isolated continent, usually ships find it expensive to route themselves to Venezuela.
2)Russia is sanctioned.
3) Majority of the oil of the world comes from The Strait of Hormuz
4) US captures Venezuelan President
5) Israel wants the support of US to get rid of the nuclear threats from Iran via it's proxy groups Hezbollah, Houthis and Hamas
6) US sees it as an opportunity to block Strait of Hormuz thereby redirecting ships to prefer distant continent over a disputed zone
7) US blocks Strait of Hormuz in retaliatory measures
8) Nations got solar subsidies from USA and many companies came to USA from the world, research on solar cells and innovate on this technology
9) The prior administration was essentially dismantling it's Middle East assets. If world would want to run on solar, who would spend on oil?
10) America has vast resources of oil
11) Trump comes to play and signals resuming of oil production and cut down fake solar subsidies on research. The world solar Dreams are put on break.
12) Alot of Nations send their ships to American continent to fulfill their surged energy demand.
13) These Nations have to pay in dollars essentially as it is not middle East which puts break on raising the use of Chinese currency.
14) US gets funded by selling its oil for its own people and for the futuristic scientific projects which the world had not even have dreamt about.

@CountScrofula Like I said, it's the biggest blunder in US history.
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
@JimboSaturn Seriously. It is. The US have done some insane and horrific things but none of them have been this -stupid- with literally no gain.
My mom is 81 years old and is very, very politically savvy. She's followed it all through the cold war. The dictators in Central and South America. The insane failed assassination plots on Castro. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
She made it clear this is dumber. They had every reason to know this would not work and wouldn't listen.

@Zonuss I'm not making excuses. If he didn't start the war, he wouldn't be forced to pay reparations. I'm only being honest. He doesn't like giving anything to anyone other than himself, but I think he still has just about enough mental capacity left to understand he can't reject it after his bad decisions earlier turned out this way.
@Zonuss true. Maybe if it was just his decision, he would keep doubling down on his bad choices. So let me put it this way: I believe his team understands paying up is by far the least damaging path out of this disaster initiative and that they will therefore make it happen.

@Bhs123 why insist on comparing to former President Obama? Trump can't compete in any way. You do know the MOU gives Iran much more?
Trump condemned Obama’s Iran deal. Here’s how his own compares.
