John,
President Trump has now racked up more than 3,000 conflicts of interest.
That’s more than 2.5 per day he’s been in office, and unfortunately, he shows no signs of slowing down. Just a few weeks ago, he stayed at his Las Vegas hotel for several nights during a trip to the West Coast. It would have been much more efficient not to travel back to Las Vegas every night—but that would have meant turning down an opportunity to profit from the presidency.
Read CREW’s new report on President Trump’s 3,000 conflicts of interest, and then share on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or by forwarding this email to raise awareness about President Trump’s unprecedented corruption.
President Trump’s conflicts range from his 450+ visits to his properties, to 134 visits by foreign officials to a Trump business, to 292 visits from 123 Members of Congress. 55 Members even contributed to Trump’s corruption by visiting his businesses while the impeachment inquiry and trial were underway.
Those numbers are staggering, and as the number of conflicts continues to climb ever higher, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer scale of his corruption. That’s why we’ve been tracking Trump’s conflicts since the start of his presidency: we can’t lose sight of how unprecedented and how deeply corrupt his actions are.
Trump has used the presidency and the machinery of the government to personally profit, and he has enlisted members of his administration and Congress in advancing his profiteering. Conflicts including the constant spending by industry groups at Trump properties and the unprecedented influence of the President’s paying customers mean that we have to question whether every decision he makes is in the best interest of the American people, or his own bottom line.
That’s the story of his presidency, and it’s the reason we’re fighting every day against his corruption. At CREW, we’re never going to stop calling out Trump’s conflicts of interest and pushing for him to be held accountable.
Thank you,
Noah Bookbinder
