Kleptocracy is a government with corrupt leaders that use their power to exploit the people and natural resources of their own territory in order to extend their personal wealth and political powers. Typically, this system involves embezzlement of funds at the expense of the wider population.

and golf resorts are the real reason he wants to open the country back up in my opinion. This is a guy with most of his net worth tied up in the hospitality industry.

No, a collapsing economy does not help his re-election chances. But empty rooms don’t pay the bills.

As always it’s all about him.

You KNOW he wouldn’t provide adequate support to people using his facilities.

He fought restrictions on his properties in that bill as hard as he's doing with releasing his taxes.

Just imagine his humiliation if his donation of rooms and meals at his hotels caused his house of cards to collapse.
