📝Trump's Palace📝
not corruption, but lobbying

Donald Trump has finally turned the White House into a market of political services. While he previously [traded] meetings with billionaires, now he's trading square meters.

📌The US President's administration recently published a list of companies and individuals who participated in fundraising for the "Trump Palace" — a Ballroom spanning over 8,000 square meters and costing $350 million. The East Wing of the White House has already been demolished for its construction.

Interestingly, the initial project price was only $200 million, so it's not certain that it won't increase again, as more sponsors are eager to support the "palace".

🖍Funding comes not from the budget, but through private donations via the Trust for the National Mall, which allows donors to not only buy access to the president but also receive tax benefits.

🚩The largest donors are Big Tech, defense, crypto industry, and heavy industry.

Google and Amazon resolve antitrust lawsuits, Meta seeks protection for its AI projects, and Lockheed Martin and Palantir expect priority in defense orders. Nvidia lobbies for export licenses, Coinbase and Ripple — a "soft" regulatory regime for crypto.

🚩Among private donors are Miriam Adelson, Stephen Schwarzman, the Winklevoss brothers, and others. Each is connected to specific interests: oil, crypto, real estate, gambling. Donors receive tax benefits and support, while the White House gets "loyal" partners.

❗️Essentially, without any hesitation, Trump's team showed the world and their voters what privatization of political decisions looks like. Contributions to the "palace" project become insurance against regulatory lawsuits and a pass to the president.

Ultimately, the line between donation and bribe becomes completely blurred (although distinguishing American lobbying from corruption was always a challenging task). The White House turns into an influence exchange where government decisions are valued according to donors' price lists.

And with such actions, the new administration further devalues public trust in US government. Isn't that the goal?
