Trump's Commodore Hotel

I just read an interesting article on the ProPublica website. It's titled, "Trump Pushed for a Sweetheart Tax Deal on His First Hotel. It's Cost New York City $410,068,399 and Counting." It is about Pres. Trump in the 70s buying a hotel in NYC and getting a phenomenal 40-year tax break. He got it through who he knew coupled with selective bullying.

The article is part of a podcast on ProPublica called "Trump, Inc." It's ironic that the president who talks about cleaning the swamp was--and is--among its biggest swamp monsters.
