G7 to Doral is hardly today's only news about @realDonaldTrump profiting from his presidency:
An evening of prayer for the Kurds is scheduled for Trump Hotel DC.

How bad does @realdonaldtrump’s Doral need this business? Look what’s happened there during his presidency. In ONE YEAR, from ‘16-‘17:
—revenue fell 13.8%
—Net operating income fell 62% pic.twitter.com/RTr9OST3wd— David Fahrenthold (@Fahrenthold) October 17, 2019
She makes a good point! We *dont* know if @realdonaldtrump is making a profit or losing $ overall. To me, the bigger Q is: is Trump using his power to force people to pay him money?
Today, the answer was a huge yes. https://t.co/J0tzQyjSwG— David Fahrenthold (@Fahrenthold) October 18, 2019
Trump doesn't want to put out any fires. His campaign (and Putin) taught him and his team that ten fires are better than one. Only so many firefighters, only so much water, and they are far easier to start than to put out. https://t.co/VoNs0ESUSm

I’ve said since November 2016 that:
A. I don’t think Trump will finish his term
B. Likely that Repubs will turn on Trump, not out of principle or because it’s a good move for them, but because Trump will get so bad that it’ll be their least catastrophic option
