    Trump donates every dollar his DC hotel receives from foreign dignitaries and foreign indusry lobbyists.

    Where did you get this info from? And I am sure that he benefits and so do the Saudis.

    This is not correct. Trump says that he donated $150,000 in profits that he receives from foreign dignitaries. That is very little, is difficult to determine, and also questionable coming from him. Also, the fact is that they spend millions at his hotel and that is what keeps his hotel from suffering huge losses. The Saudis do this for a reason --- influence. The Trump mob is so gullible and will believe anything your con-man president tells you.

    I got it from 100+ media sources, but you can get it from Google.

    Yes ... it does factually debunk your self enrichment theory. $150K is too little patronage ... you'd like to see more? Clearly $150K contradicts your multi-million $ "payola" meme. Hardly a worth any of Trump's consideration ... as he donates it anyway.

    According to Google, the Arabs spent millions which is verified by other recent articles. That $150,000 is the so-called profit from their stays. The hotel has an overhead expense(cost of doing business) that amounts to X number of dollars. The total dollars collected during the year are the gross sales, to put it in simple terms. The sales minus overhead expense is the profit. That $150,000 represents
    very little of the money spent at the hotel by the Arabs to gain favor with Trump. Without those millions of dollars spent, the loss would have been millions of dollars more. My working life was has been spent in business. Been there and understand it.
    Oh, it is not a scheme. It is the way things are done. The Arabs could stay at many fine hotels in D.C and they chose to patronize this one for a reason.
    As president, Trump should not allow himself to be patronized in this way, but he doesn't care.
    $150,000 hardly puts a dent in the huge losses, but millions of dollars have helped greatly. He picked that number out of thin air.
