New WH Ballroom-Massive Money Laundering Operation [View all]

Literally right out of the WH. Isn’t it obvious? This is what he does, uses construction projects to launder money. Huge no bid contracts, massive cost overruns, never ending work and delays that add to cost. Bribes right out in the open labeled “donations” to the project. I’ll bet it never gets finished, it’s not supposed to. It’s just a money pit to cover a massive slush fund for Trumps personal use.
