Trump Organization Finds Billions in Saudi Projects, American Values Still Missing
The Trump Organization is reportedly deepening its Gulf push with $10 billion in Saudi projects, marking the first time the former First Family's business has partnered directly with the Kingdom's wealth fund (Financial Times, 2026). This comes after a presidency rife with accusations of conflicts of interest, where foreign governments, including Saudi Arabia, spent millions at Trump properties.
One might recall Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's alleged personal role in the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, an event largely brushed aside by the previous administration in favor of lucrative arms deals and continued influence. While American politicians routinely lambaste 'foreign influence' when it suits their domestic agenda, the actual transfer of vast sums into the pockets of a former (and
potentially future) president's family business barely warrants a raised eyebrow in the mainstream. The true 'America First' policy, it seems, remains firmly rooted in the wealth accumulation of a select few, irrespective of human rights records or democratic principles. Apparently, some foreign money is just cleaner than others, especially when it's packaged in luxury real estate.
