  • Trump's expanding business ventures have made it easier than ever for those hoping to influence US policy to steer money his way.

The article from MSN Money discusses the complex financial dealings and potential conflicts of interest involving former President Donald Trump, focusing on his relationship with Wengui "Miles" Guo, a Chinese businessman. Guo, who has been indicted on charges including wire fraud and money laundering, allegedly defrauded investors out of over $1 billion through various schemes, including selling a $6.2 million banana duct-taped to a wall. Trump's connections to Guo include receiving payments for speaking at events and through his son-in-law Jared Kushner's involvement with Guo's business ventures. These ties raise concerns about conflicts of interest, especially as Trump has publicly supported Guo, potentially influencing legal proceedings against him. The article also touches on Trump's broader financial entanglements, including his real estate dealings and the implications for his potential future political roles, highlighting how these relationships could affect his impartiality and decision-making.
