In early sessions of questioning, many journalists had raised concerns over Trump’s financial ties to Saudi Arabia, especially following the controversial $2 billion investment in Jared Kushner’s fund, which was pushed through despite qualified advisors' warnings. This payment is particularly troubling given Trump's favorable stances towards Khashoggi’s assassination and other controversial human rights issues associated with Saudi leadership, suggesting these financial relations may serve specific agenda-driven purposes.
The LIV golf events at Trump properties have been scrutinized for their potential role as a Saudi influence-peddling operation, putting the former President at an axis of contentious international relations. While they might not significantly impact the Trump Organization's bottom line, they are central in revealing the intricate connections between the former U.S. leader and Saudi officials, raising questions about his integrity and decision-making processes in regards to foreign diplomacy.
Concerns about Trump's financial engagements extend to deals like the development in Oman, where he has profited significantly without proper disclosure of these lucrative arrangements. Such discrepancies highlight not only ethical dilemmas but the broader implications of foreign influence on American politics, suggesting that international payments could skew U.S. policy, especially towards nations like Saudi Arabia and Egypt.
