Sudden windfall in 2016 from a Las Vegas hotel ..
Lot to read here ...
2-"Donald J. Trump needed money. His “self-funded” presidential campaign was short on funds, and he was struggling to win over leery Republican donors.
3-"His golf courses and the hotel he would soon open in the Old Post Office in Washington were eating away at what cash he had left on hand, his tax records show.
4-"And in early 2016, Deutsche Bank, the last big lender still doing business with him, unexpectedly turned down his request for a loan. The funds, Mr. Trump had told his bankers, would help shore up his Turnberry golf resort in Scotland. Some bankers feared the money would
5-"instead be diverted to his campaign. That January, Mr. Trump sold a lot of stock — $11.1 million worth. He sold another $11.8 million worth in February, and $7.5 million in March. In April, he sold $8.1 million more.

Word this am that Pelosi & Mnuchin met for 90 min yest @ a new CR deal, McConnell still saying too high but Mnuchin & WH & NP want something, so they'll meet again this am.
If nothing Dems will put new deal on floor, pass it & walk.
Dems want this new lower $2.2T deal
Incl $ for Stim, States & Schools, expanded u/e & more SNAP
McConnell won't budge far past his original $1T
So they're far away
Trump doesn't care @ details-just wants to send $ to voters now
It doesn't look good
But Meadows could force it
McConnell is said to be refusing to put a bill on Senate floor that exceeds his $1T by much, & doesn't have full GOP support bc GOP are 'tired of spending'
He's saying they're 'very far apart' & won't nec respond to WH pressure at this point
We'll see ..
