The Son of Former #SupremeCourt Justice Anthony Kennedy Helped #Trump Secure Loans at #DeutscheBank
by Jerry Lambe, Oct 28th, 2020
"The son of former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy helped #DonaldTrump in 2005 secure nearly $700 million in loans to construct a skyscraper in Chicago, despite Trump’s reputation for defaulting on business loans, the New York Times reported on Tuesday evening.
"According to the report, Justin Kennedy, who ran the German bank’s commercial real estate team and was close with the president’s daughter #IvankaTrump and her husband #JaredKushner, was willing to overlook Trump’s shoddy history as a debtor, getting the future president to personally guarantee $40 million of the loan. Both Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump currently work in the White House.
"The Times reported that Trump was able to convince Kennedy and other top executives that 'the Chicago development was a guaranteed moneymaker,' and further signaled 'the Trump family’s commitment to the project' by informing the bank that Ivanka would be in charge of the operation.
"#JustinKennedy’s role in helping to breathe life into Trump’s business empire before he was president has continued to breed rumors and conspiracies about the alleged
'White House charm offensive' carried out by the Trump family to help convince #JusticeKennedy to retire and make way for #JusticeBrettKavanaugh’s appointment to the bench.
"In 'Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction,' finance editor of the New York Times David Enrich described how Justin Kennedy was 'drawn to Trump’s risk-taking and glamour' while he was shepherding lucrative loans to Trump’s private businesses, even after the bank’s clients took massive losses when Trump’s Atlantic City casinos went bankrupt. After Trump’s election, the family reportedly set their sights on persuading Justice Kennedy to step down so the president could appoint a second justice to the bench."
