Trump Caught Profiting From Missiles Used In Syria – Stock Price Skyrockets

President Donald Trump promised to hand the overseeing of his businesses to his sons upon taking office, however, he’s rumored to still have direct ties to many business ventures. He’s also been accused of using his position as POTUS to provide his own businesses with unfair advantages. You can check out a list of his many conflicting interests via The Atlantic.

More recently, however, Trump has taken things to an all new level.

According to new reports, Trump ordered the U.S. military to bomb an airfield near Homs, Syria — framed as a retaliation following the chemical weapons attack that killed nearly 100 civilians earlier this week — to benefit a company he owns stock in.

Yes, that’s right. Trump essentially started a war with Syria, and in the process, ensured that he would gain something financially from it.

The U.S. Military fired 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at an airfield rumored to be occupied by Assad rebels. According to Reuters, however, the airbase wasn’t as badly harmed as Trump would like the American people to believe:

According to the Palmer Report, the Syrian airbase “is already back to operational capacity today, because the Tomahawks were aimed at the least important targets on the base.”

Essentially, Trump’s attack did nothing but earn him a pretty penny. He spent taxpayer money on missiles to fire in Syria, risking lives in the process, to earn the company he owns a stock in a profit.

According to Business Insider, Trump owns stock in Raytheon Inc., the company that manufactures the Tomahawk cruise missiles.

As the Palmer Report notes, Trump just earned Raytheon Inc. close to a hundred million dollars in profits — a company he owns stock in — by choosing to use their missiles in the attack on Syria. To make matters worse, Raytheon Inc.’s shares grew today, proving that Trump did indeed profit from the bombing.

So there you have it.

Despite claiming that the attack had a “big impact” on him and that he’s open to changing his foreign policy approach, it seems Trump’s personal financial gain takes a backseat to nothing — not even a war crime. At a press conference Wednesday, Trump told reporters:

‘I do change. I am flexible. I am proud of that flexibility. I will tell you that attack on children yesterday had a big impact on me. Big impact. It was a horrible, horrible thing. I’ve been watching it and seeing it, and it does not get any worse than that. I have that flexibility. And it is very, very possible, and I will tell you it is already happened, that my attitude toward Syria and Assad has changed very much.’

This guy is just blatantly and shamelessly fucking America in the ass and smiling in our faces while he does it because he knows his supporters are such mindless sheep he can get away with anything and they'll never hold him accountable.

He knows the worst thing that can happen is he might have to resign.

BFD.

He takes the billions he scammed by being President, buys a private island somewhere and retires in luxury as an actual billionaire as opposed to a paper one.

right. underground reinforced concrete hangers storage facilities, fuel depot, and command centers are unimportant :palm:

"Raytheon did it"
 
Wow, what a stretch, Donald Trump probably has stocks in every U.S. corporation capable of building Tomahawks including General Dynamics and McDonald Douglas (And one other I can't think of) that were past producers of the missiles. He probaly has stock in every company that has any major military contract so any kind of military action, warfare, or humanitarian operation will benefit Trump.

Clutching at straws for relevance in the age of news-less reporting.

Thank you for listing all those PERFECT REASONS WHY HE SHOULD NOT BE PRESIDENT.

Don't these conflicts of interest bother you though?

Trump is 70 years old. He could have transferred his own companies to his kids and liquidated the rest of his assets and put them in a blind trust. You can't eliminate all financial conflicts but you can greatly reduce them.

I don't think his actions in this case have anything to do with his stock holdings but other presidents have generally tried to eliminate those types of conflicts. I understand his large business holdings are a horse of a different color that other presidents didn't have but he could have tried to eliminate other conflicts as past presidents tried to.

I have to look at what he did..
"Blind trust" is obviously not going to work other then for stock holding -real estate needs managing
and no i'm not that concerned.

He's donating his POTUS salary -that doesn't sound like greed is an operative for him
 
Obama did not do that with his stocks. Nor any other President that has had them. The President in that regard is no different.
Obama's holdings were mostly Treasury Bills.... and investment in the US government (albeit a shitty one, lol). So he didn't have significant investments vulnerable to conflicts.

Past presidents put their holdings into blind trusts. Trump said he was going to.

LOL, his POTUS salary is peanuts.

The blind trust would work for these types of stock... I already said his real estate companies were different.
 
Where is Althea? She said yesterday who could question this move based on what happened to the children in Syria and that politics played no role in it. I told her liberals claimed this was about making Trump money. She insulted me for saying so. Here you go Althea

Althea is a man...you might remember him as John Galt.
 
I thought he did put his stocks in a blind trust.

Anyway, if what he did is illegal, bring charges against him.

I swear he could have captured OBL or killed Hitler and hysterical liberals would find something to whine about. If he didn't conduct strikes, you would have whined he is impotent and obeying Russia. He conducts strikes (which ruins your dumbass Russia collusion theory) and he is still impotent.

LOL
