This year, Trump had hinted repeatedly that he intended to award the event to himself. At this year's G-7 Summit, held in August in Biarritz, France, Trump said his aides had examined other sites and come back to tell him that Doral is the best. The site is set among office parks, in an inland area near the Miami airport.
"They went to places all over the country, and they came back and they said, 'This is where we'd like to be,' " Trump said then. "It's not about me. It's about getting the right location." He particularly praised the club's ample parking.

How do his supporters align this with the America First ideology? Just some more bootlicking about what's best for Trump is best for America?

President Trump has awarded the G-7 Summit of world leaders to his own private company, scheduling the massive gathering for next year at his Trump Doral resort outside Miami, the White House said Thursday.

That decision will bring hundreds of diplomats, media and security personnel to Trump's financially struggling resort — where profits fell 70 percent after Trump entered politics. These events typically fill the host resort, bringing large payments for rooms and meals, and providing global publicity.

This appears to be the first time in American history that a president has given such a massive contract to himself. Trump still owns the Doral resort, and can draw profits from it, though his company has said they will not over-charge the government.

I can only guess that the other leaders of the G7 agreed to this only because they wanted Trump to commit an impeachable offense. They wanted him to hang himself because they are sick of him.

Attacks Biden jr for getting rich off his connection to his dad, literally gets rich off his own position.

And he has the nerve to talk about the Hunter Biden thing. This guy is openly crooked, him and his kids, exploiting America to fill their coffers. I really hope this story ends with them behind bars.

The advance team, he said, went to visit the event spaces in California, Colorado, Hawaii, Florida, North Carolina, Michigan, Tennessee and Utah.

"And it became apparent at the end of that process that Doral was by far and away, far and away, the best physical facility for this meeting.

"In fact I was talking to one of the advance teams when they came back and I said, 'what was it like?' And they said, 'You're not going to believe this but it's almost like they built this facility to host type of event.'"

this seems like they are trying to shift the news from Sondland Hearing/opening statement.
