Trump Family Values
In return for a two billion dollar investment in the Trump Crime Family's crypto-ponzi scam, Don the Con is set to grant the UAE access to AI computer chips, providing the UAE (and China) a competitive advantage in the battle to dominate artificial intelligence.
A New York Times investigation found that Sheikh Tahnoon, who controls $1.5 trillion of the United Arab Emirates’ sovereign wealth, and Steve Witkoff, Trump’s golf buddy and Middle East envoy, combined their diplomatic and business interests, breaking ethical boundaries to enrich Mafia Don, his family, and the inner circle of Trump Pirates.
Their partnership centers on two multibillion-dollar deals. In Dubai last May, Zach, the son of Mr. Witkoff, in cahoots with Don Jr., revealed the first of the deals. The Witkoffs and Trumps launched World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency start-up, with a $2 billion investment from the Sheikh. The cash influx expanded World Liberty’s profile, providing it with potentially tens of millions of dollars in revenue per year.
Two weeks later, the White House agreed to give G42, a technology company controlled by Sheikh Tahnoon, access to hundreds of thousands of AI computer chips. The White House ignored concerns that the Chinese might gain access to them. The finalized deal would provide the UAE with a crucial tool in the high-stakes race to dominate artificial intelligence.
In the middle of both deals is Don the Con, the most corrupt president in US history. Ruling families blending moneymaking and governance is the norm in Trumpistan and the Persian Gulf. According to Zach Witkoff, the Emirates “are just an amazing example of how you can lead with innovation while also maintaining your family values.” (NYT)
