Trumps Worst Deal. He made a deal with the Mammadov family, a very corrupt family in Azerbaijan to convert a building into a hotel in Baku to bear his name. He received at least 3 million for the deal. Ivanka was very hands on with re-modeling and she was the point of contact for all the decorative details in the building and landscaping. She posted pictures and videos of her in Baku. In Dec 2016 the very large letters TRUMP still adorned the top of the building.
It is public that the Mammadov family are very corrupt even by Azerbaijan standards. Over there they don't hide the corruption. Trump's lawyer said the family was vetted but declined on saying who they used for it.
This is undoubtably being reviewed by the FBI and the Intelligence Committee.
Long article, but seeing the picture of the building is a must.

and as always there is no connection between Trump and corrupt oligarchs. :cigar:
Too many connections to keep track of, I can't keep up with them all.
I'll try and get that article read this weekend, thanks for the link, and here are two in return:
On Wednesday, it was revealed that from September to November last year, while he was working as a top adviser to Trump’s presidential campaign, Flynn was lobbying for a firm linked to the Turkish government, earning $530,000. He and his company Flynn Intel Group Inc filed retroactive documents with the Department of Justice two days ago to register as a foreign agent.
