NEW YORK (AP) — "A drone maker backed by President Donald Trump’s two oldest sons is trying to sell to Gulf countries while they are under attack by Iran and dependent on the U.S. military led by their father.
"The sales drive by Florida-based #Powerus – which announced a deal last month to bring aboard #EricTrump and #DonaldTrumpJr. – positions the company to potentially benefit from a war that their father began.
" 'These countries are under enormous pressure to buy from the sons of the president so he will do what they want,' said Richard Painter, a former chief White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush. 'This is going to be the first family of a president to make a lot of money off war — a war he didn’t get the consent of Congress for.' "

A drone maker backed by President Donald Trump’s two oldest sons is trying to win contracts with Gulf countries under threat by Iran and protected by the U.S. military led by their father. Powerus is holding demonstrations in “several” Gulf countries of how its defensive drone interceptors could help them ward off the attacks, according to co-founder Brett Velicovich. Powerus recently struck a deal that will bring on the Trump brothers, Eric and Donald Jr., as stakeholders in the military contractor. The president’s oldest sons have expanded their business interests rapidly beyond hotels and golf courses in a little over a year since their father took office again.

"When the US acts like a rulemaker rather than a #SHAKEDOWN ARTIST -buys something more valuable than fear: consent➡️turns hegemony into ldrshp &➡️a system: other states find preferable to the alts.
VZ➡️puts at risk *utter disregard for law, norms, alliances & diplomacy -break in Am fgn policy.
Trump would run VZ until a “transition”+take its oil *naked act of #aggression. Chilling to allies: US power: no longer used for democracy, coll sec, rules-bas-."

Flailing on #affordability, he blurts out an idea which he knows will be challenged in the courts so he can tell the masses "see I'm fighting for you but they won't let me", all while he also shakes down the credit card companies. 💳
