The Trump family’s presence in the Middle East continues to grow with the announcement of a huge new complex bearing the president’s name, to be built in Saudi Arabia.

The Trump Organization – Trump’s privately-owned business conglomerate, which is now officially led by his children – is working with London-based real estate outfit Dar Global on a major new development project in the Saudi city of Jeddah.

On Monday Dar Global announced plans to launch a “Central Park Inspired” complex of “premium” residential and office buildings and parkland along the Red Sea coast to be named the “Trump Plaza Jeddah”.

According to the company the development is set to include “premium residences, serviced apartments, Grade-A office space, and exclusive townhouses”. “At the center of the masterplan will be a Central Park-inspired green spine, a landscaped park running the length of the development, anchoring the residences and serviced apartments and bringing the essence of Manhattan to Jeddah,” they continued.

They don't even bother to hide their crimes and corruption.

Unless there is even worse stuff going on behind the scenes.

In a few years someone will rip those letters off the front but by then the trumps and warlords of SA will have made their heist.
