Not necessarily. You could very easily propose to do the event at cost...which, I believe, is what Trump agreed to.
As far as “free advertising”, give me a break. Trump is the last guy in the world that needs more advertising.
If his company can pull off the job as effectively and at lower cost than the competition then it’s STILL a good deal for the taxpayer.
Maybe this is a dumb question but if doing the G7 at Doral could be done for less money than doing it elsewhere (comparable elsewhere. I'm not talking about doing it at the Holiday Inn on the south side) would it still be a problem for you guys?

American Taxpayers need to eat it. Read above. "That's the law"!

Who cares if it costs less? .
Yes. Full stop. At cost still puts money in Donald's pockets. That this is ok for you, is troubling.
No, we need cons likes you to line Trump's pockets even more. Trump lies, it wouldn't be at cost, it never is. That is why Camp David was created. Use it .
How the heck does doing something at cost "enrich" someone? If it costs you $500 to do a certain job and you charge $500 to your customer how much were you "enriched"?
Yes, it would be problem. Trump owns the place and no doubt saw an opportunity for some easy money. That would constitute both a huge conflict of interests and a violation of the emoluments legislation-unless, of course, Trump suddenly got an attack of generosity and offered the place for free.
Those of us that actually work.

Then let him find a cheaper place that he doesn’t own.
Looks like they will. Sleep contentedly that we will likely pay more now. We will see in the end.
No surprise here. The truth is the opposite of what Trump said.
The reason Trump dropped his Florida resort as the next G7 venue is the opposite to the one he tweeted
I'm not even sure this guy can speak the truth. I can't recall a single instance when he spoke without some form of distortion or exaggeration of what the facts really said.

Yes, as it would bother me if a Democratic president tried something like that. It's a huge conflict of interest. And besides - who would know if it was done at cost - because the trump administration claims it is - yeah, why would they lie?
