Extortion

I heard a thoughtful conservative (not someone from the radical right or a Nazi) say that the core problem with the Groping Grifter (our President-Elect) is his extortion of foreign governments. According to the speaker, it has already begun.

President-Elect Grifter has investments in many nations, and as President he has some of those nations under his tiny thumb. Expect to see them visit, hat in hand, and begin booking rooms in Trump hotels. The Grifter is already squeezing out concessions and special deals for his companies. That is hard for a President to do in this country--there are laws against it--but few foreign countries are prepared to deal with an American extortionist. And business is business.
