Republicans on the House antitrust panel laughed off Democrats' questions overT-Mobile's spending at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D
Republicans on the House antitrust panel laughed off Democrats’ questions over T-Mobile’s spending at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C. immediately after the company announced a mega-merger with Sprint.
Rep. Matt Gaetz elicited laughs from his Republican colleagues after complaining that Rep. Pramila Jayapal only spent 50 seconds of her time asking about the substance of the merger “because we have to go into what kind of hotel towels you like.” Trump is the first president in the modern era to refuse to divest from his business holdings while in office. As the owner of multiple commercial properties, this has created a situation in which corporations, lobbyists and foreign governments can directly pay the president as they seek his support for a variety of policies.
“I made the decision. I’m a longtime Trump hotel stayer way before this transaction,” Legere said in response to questions from Rep. Hank Johnson .
