“They were a little incredulous that he would be so brazen,” the source said.

Join the club, unnamed person briefed on the exchange.

On the one hand, it’s not unusual for the government to help promote private international investment. On the other, this is Trump, so you know that in this case it’s another grift for Donnie’s buddies.

What is it with these guys? They are as ugly on the outside as they are on the inside. I am a visual person, so whenever I read the name Adelson or Wynn or Trump their disgusting visages appear in my mind. Along with Harvey Weinstein and even Brett Kavanaugh, (even though he is not wealthy). Their faces reveal their degeneracy.

I suppose it is surperfulous to say that this is utterly disgusting, while entirely predictable.

But not as brazen as Scott Pruitt, who took his entire ass kissing Oklahoma originating staff with him to Morocco, with a stop over in Paris. With the sole purpose of lobbying the Moroccan Government to purchase LNG from Carl Icahn. I mean, Trump is a gutless, pusillanimous Grift Prude compared to Pruitt.

Give him time. He’s new at government-based griftology and, bless his heart, not that fast a learner.

And what do you want to bet the next time we have a Democrat for President, Fox News and all will be outraged by coffee cup salutes, lack of a flag pin lapel, sitting in the Oval Office without a suit jacket or feet on the Resolute desk and try to make it sound like worst thing since spam email.

They’ll completely and totally forget about the debauchery of the Trump presidency.
