Trump and Money Laundering

[evillawyer]

Been seeing a lot lately on how Trump may be using Turnberry in Scotland to launder money. Adam Davidson of the New Yorker appears to have a story in the works on it. This is from Mother Jones. Scottish authorities are looking at possible money laundering. Even if he's not laundering money, this is not a good thing for Trump since he's throwing a lot of money down the drain apparently.

The biggest Trump financial mystery? Where he came up with the cash for his Scottish resorts.

Even if it were true nothing will come of it, the rich and powerful never get punished. But if its true I hope he spends a few solid years behind bars

In order for you to make an allegation of money laundering, that would mean that you have evidence that Trump has been engaged in some type of illegal activity that is generation cash. Outside of a brief mention of the Russian collusion case and Paul Manafort, what are they exactly accusing Trump of trying to launder money from?

Lol is all I gotta say.

It's not his cash. He's laundering it for someone else. I think that's the idea.

Lots of outlets looking into it:

Plan for huge Trump Turnberry expansion sparks call for investigation

Trump wealth order probe urged over golf resorts

Scotland Might Use Unexplained Wealth Orders to Find Out How Trump Paid for his Golf Courses

So your idea is that the president of the United States, who is wealthy in his own right, is laundering money for someone else?
You can't make this story up, it has to be true.

 

[Grudenator]

people should be looking into Biden’s mental state more than another conspiracy.

Where is the money coming from. And most of these investments came before he was elected. And when did Donny ever use his own cash for anything?

Skim the BBC article, it looks like they are looking into where he got the money to buy the golf courses before he became president. I don't know if its true or not, but there were rumors floating around about this for years before he ran for President. I think at one point there were some alleged mob ties that may have included money laundering with some of his construction projects in the 80s or 90s.

There are places called "banks" and also private equity firms that "invest" in projects for a percentage of ownership. For a so called "lawyer" you seem pretty ignorant of how big business works.

And then he is using it to buy properties in the UK to build golf resorts???

So he's "laundering money" from someone else, but then given the ability to keep it for capital projects?

I'm not following.

So he was just a ordinary billionaire with little to no political influence. Why would anyone want to funnel money through Trump in 2012... and then allow him to spend it on his personal projects?

In 10 years Trump would double his investment maybe?

So what is that suggesting? That Trump made close to $135 million on the viggorish maybe? LOL...

I'm looking for an angle but you are not giving me anything to sink my teeth into.

"The Washington Post reported Sunday that the Trump Organization had spent more than $400 million in cash acquiring properties, often without taking on any debt at all, beginning in 2006. The president’s son Eric Trump told the Post that the simple explanation was that Trump properties threw off so much cash, there was no need to borrow."

So now $400 million from the vig???

Watch Ozark sometime. BTW it's not a "personal project". That distinction will be made when it files for bankruptcy.

 

[FïreBall]

Trump is buying up the world.. Wonder if he'd be interested in my house and 3/4 acre property?

 

[0nelilreb]

I’ll bet when Mother Jones does the deep dive and gets to the bottom of it .. it will be Putin’s money and Trump is laundering it for him .

Who else do you think he is partnered with??? The Russians?
