Mulvaney wrong that Trump won't profit from G-7 summit
Mulvaney said Trump "will not be profiting" from the G-7 summit meeting to be held at Trump’s Doral resort.

The acting White House chief of staff says the Miami-area resort will host the gathering "at cost." But the White House did not explain how that would work.

Moreover, the summit is a one-of-a-kind event, attracting seven world leaders, hundreds of diplomats, journalists and other guests, and worldwide publicity. Even at cost, it fills the hotel during Florida’s slow season and guests would be doing other spending on the property even if the rooms were rented at break-even prices.

Mulvaney’s statement is inaccurate. We rate this claim False.

I thought I read somewhere that there would be no charge at all for the rooms. Even if that's true the free rooms would only be for the actual dignitaries attending the G7.
Still there's the bar, restaurants, gift shops, barber/beautician, spa, etc.

One would have thought that after the Mueller Report, the ongoing impeachment hearings over the Ukraine and the Syria withdrawal debacle, most Presidents would have second thoughts about continuing to throw more "gasoline" on what is already a political firestorm!

Hosting the G-7 at his own resort is such an obvious conflict of financial interests that this President appears to be making an open declaration to the American public that he is above the law and defying the other branches of government to reign him in!

After 12500 documented lies while in office, Donald Trump and his surrogates have lost all credibility - even if his claims about not making a profit were true, who would believe him?
