Trump giving Saudis a pass on Khashoggi murder—maybe because he continues to benefit from Saudi rentals, hotel bookings & other payments to the Trump Org? Saudi gov't payments violate our Constitution’s chief public corruption prohibition. Our lawsuit holds Trump accountable.
As President, Trump seems to continue benefiting from the Saudis. According to @washingtonpost, a last-minute visit to NYC by the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia to the Trump International Hotel in Manhattan enabled it to increase revenues in 2018 after 2 years of falling revenue.
The Saudis have been longstanding Trump partners, as he remarked in 2015: "Saudi Arabia, I get along with all of them. They buy apartments from me. They spend $40 million, $50 million. Am I supposed to dislike them? I like them very much."
Our lawsuit, just granted standing, can reveal more of the real magnitude of such payments & benefits—publicly known examples being only the tip of the iceberg — & hold Trump accountable.
