The Chinese government is extending a $500 million loan to a state-owned construction company to build an Indonesian theme park that will feature a Trump-branded golf course and hotels.

[...]

The project will include a number of Trump-branded hotels, a golf course, and a residence. While the $500 million loan will not be directly allocated to any of the Trump-branded features, Beijing’s contribution of half the project’s total operating budget ensures the success of the broader theme-park venture.

The Trump properties are considered flagship elements of the theme park, according to MNC marketing materials, and internal documents obtained by Agency France-Presse show Trump’s sons have been directly involved in its planning.

You were asking why Trump was helping a Chinese company that the US was sanctioning.  Perhaps we have a little quid pro quo going on.

I'd like to hear from Trump fans why he is so outspoken about how unfair China is, but when we sanction an offender, he steps in to save them. (http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,316130.msg1683233.html#msg1683233)

There is a reason why ownership by one family member is attributed to the other members of the family.  This is one of them.

Yes, his hotels to be built in Indonesia with China loans that his sons are working on, is why he will use our money to save China's phone company. Spit.

  • All deserve a trial if accused
Then there should be an ethics investigation if something is improper.

What is the quid pro quo?

The article clearly indicates not a penny of the China investment is going into anything owned by the Trump interests.
