No, Jonathan, there is no "really interesting case" here. The article styles itself an "idiot's guide" to Trump-Turkey corruption, and lives up to that billing. For anyone who follows U.S.-Turkey *at all* there is precisely zero news here.
The article rehashes Trump Towers Istanbul, and the 'back channel' between sons-in-law. And that's it. In terms of exploring the recesses of whatever is going on between Trump and Erdogan (and something clearly is), the article doesn't advance our understanding *at all*.
There is a BIG story still to be written about why Trump behaves as he does with Erdogan. It's likely Putin related. And it's most certainly *not* about the $1 million per annum in license fees that Trump pulls out of Trump Towers Istanbul.
