…..and the people that support Trump, except for those wealthy enough to be cleaning up, are no different that every sucker that Trump has scammed in the last 50 years.
The Trump University enrollees finally figured this out, MTG has figured it out and much of his base will ultimately figure it out.
Trump says it took 3000 years to make the peace he brought to Gaza. Really? How is that working out? Bibi and MBS knew. They didn't even bother to attend his Gaza summit.
My prompt for AI: Did Trump's Gaza summit share characteristics with other Trump business presentations that ended up to be con jobs?AI Overview:
Reports on Donald Trump's Gaza summit in October 2025 and his past business presentations highlight several characteristics that critics identify as manipulative and deceptive, with some outlets drawing direct comparisons. These parallels include
the use of misleading presentations, reliance on showmanship over substance, and the pursuit of self-interest. Characteristics shared by Trump's Gaza summit and criticized business practices:
1. Misleading use of third-party namesGaza Summit: A plan for Gaza's reconstruction, reportedly shown to Trump administration officials, included the names and logos of numerous companies, some of which stated they had no knowledge of or involvement in the proposal.
Business deals: This tactic mirrors previous instances, such as a New York civil fraud case where Trump and his company were found liable for inflating asset values on financial statements to deceive banks and insurers.
2. Emphasis on theatrics over substanceGaza Summit: Media outlets and diplomats described the summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, as a "showbiz extravaganza" dominated by theatrics. During the proceedings, many leaders stood for long periods in an unorthodox arrangement, and observers noted a focus on spectacle rather than achieving a detailed agreement.
Business deals: Trump's business presentations and communication style have been described by linguists and others as rooted in his sales background, relying on emotional appeal, repetition, and a conversational, yet often disjointed, style.
3. Focusing on personal gainGaza Summit: Critics have noted that while the summit declared a new era of peace, the focus on leveraging trade and investment ignores critical political and humanitarian issues. Some have expressed concern that the plans echo previous attempts by Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to turn Gaza into a "Riviera real estate bonanza".
Business deals: Concerns over using his position for personal enrichment have been raised throughout both of Trump's presidential terms. This includes licensing his name for products and real estate deals, with some foreign government-linked transactions attracting scrutiny. A civil fraud case also concluded he lied about his wealth to secure favorable loans and business deals.
4. A focus on deals and loyaltyGaza Summit: The summit's outcome produced a ceasefire and a vague "declaration," but not a comprehensive peace treaty. Trump's personal style, focused on striking deals, reportedly led to an overestimation of potential concessions from other world leaders, as seen in his earlier summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Business deals: A central theme of Trump's business career, highlighted in his book The Art of the Deal, is aggressive negotiation. However, this approach, which prioritizes personal gain and can blur the truth, has been noted by business experts as potentially ineffective for long-term relationships and harmful to credibility.
5. Dismissal of accountabilityGaza Summit: Following the ceasefire, both Israeli and Hamas sides accused each other of breaches, with Trump's initial plan lacking clear enforcement mechanisms.
Business deals: In legal proceedings, Trump and his lawyers have repeatedly asserted that disclaimers on financial statements absolve him of fraud, a defense rejected by the court. In the civil fraud trial, the judge noted a "pathological" lack of remorse or accountability."
