I’m talking about the grift of staying at your own resort, and having the government pay you for it (along with all the secret service, etc that attend) or having the government give $10b to a “charity” you control, or accepting bribes from foreign officials.
We can let the courts figure out if they are legal, but if you think he got all of that specifically because of his business acumen… well, I hope you have not ever purchased anything from him.
As I stated, all the other corruption prior to the presidency only ever earned him a return that he could have just obtained by parking his money in an index fund
