On one hand, you have Betteridge's Law of Headlines which says "no". On the other, the headline is asking if a Trump broke the law.
As melon scratchers go, that's a honey doodle.
To think conservatives are upset at Hunter using his name to get jobs. If this idiot wasn’t named Trump, there’s no chance in hell he’d be meeting with any world leaders.
And it’s never an issue when it comes to Trump’s kids or Jared getting deals. Ivanka’s Chinese trademarks couldn’t have been rushed for a political purpose, but Hunter’s speaking payments obviously were.
I think the more compelling point is that Don Jr. is doing business with an authoritarian autocrat, and discussing the Russian-Ukrainian war. His dad had a chat with Orbán three months ago, and said if he takes office he’ll withdraw all US support from Ukraine. Legal or not, this is concerning.
