President Donald Trump holding the 2020 G7 summit at his own golf resort in Doral, Florida, is a blatant"use of his office for personal gain" and"even more unbelievable" given he faces an impeachment inquiry, according to a watchdog group that had previously requested an investigation on the matter.
"Given that President Trump is facing an impeachment inquiry for misuse of office, it is even more unbelievable that he would so blatantly and corruptly use his office for personal gain," CREW spokesman Jordan Libowitz told."As president, he decided it was in the best interest of the country to use the G7 summit as an advertisement for his struggling golf business.
In mid-September, CREW filed a request for investigation with the State Department's Office of Inspector General for possible corruption with the then-likelihood the summit could be held at Trump National Doral Miami.
