Trump set to benefit as Qatar buys $6.5m apartment in New York tower

The acquisition by the Middle Eastern state came soon after a lawsuit that tried to stop president benefiting from such deals was dismissed
The government of Qatar bought a $6.5m apartment in one of Donald Trump’s New York towers soon after the dismissal of a lawsuit that tried to stop the president benefiting from such deals.

Qatar’s mission to the United Nations signed a deal for the condominium at Trump World Tower on 17 January, according to city records. The purchase means that the Middle Eastern state now owns four units in the building, for which it paid $16.5m.

On 21 December, a federal judge in New York had thrown out a lawsuit from ethics campaigners alleging that Trump was breaching the emoluments clause of the US constitution by collecting tens of thousands of dollars in charges from Qatar each year for the three apartments it already owned in the building.

Qatar’s new acquisition at Trump World Tower, which is in Manhattan’s Midtown East section, coincided with an intense lobbying campaign in Washington by the Qatari government amid a regional crisis that has pitted the Gulf monarchy against Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

The media’s 2016 freak out over Clinton’s pneumonia looks really suspect today


I haven’t seen this posted yet but I truly have no words.

I called it stupid then and I believe it's stupid now. Trying to use age against a candidate as a "fitness" test is gender discrimination. You can't do it in the workforce, and it has no place in congress.

Unless the person is displaying cognitive disabilities age should never play a factor.
