Broken: Secret Recording Captures Trump's True Feelings about G7

In a secret audio recording obtained by our representatives, President Donwald J. Trump revealed more than he wanted to, believing that nobody but those present would hear his words. Handed over to us by an unnamed person present at the time, the recording tells the story. Here's a transcript:

Unnamed Attorney: Mr. President, Doral just won't fly as a location for the G7. It could even lead to another charge in the articles of impeachment. You simply cannot hold that event at your own property and charge people who attend for rooms, meals, etc. That would be seen as a violation of the Emoluments clause in the Constitution.

Donwald J. Trump: Emoluments, schlemoluments, dammit! I'm the President of the United States and what I say goes. Do you understand me?

Attorney: I'm sorry, Mr. President, but you simply can't do it. Besides, all of the G7 countries have already said they won't come if it is held at Doral. Something about bedbugs and salmonella.

Donwald: What? Really? They won't come? But, I was counting on the G7 to solve Doral's problems and put off the bankruptcy thing a little longer. They won't come?

Attorney: They're all saying that, Mr. President. Between that and the emoluments thing, you're going to have to change your mind and hold it somewhere else.

Donwald: Well, fuck me! OK, then. I'll change it to fucking Camp David. Let all of those assholes cool their heels at that shithole Boy Scout Camp. I'll fly in when I have to on Marine One, and they can deal with the mosquitoes and boredom the rest of the time. Who cares about the G7, anyhow? They're all a bunch of cowards and ninnies. Why can't Vlad come, anyhow? Now, there's a MAN! Screw them all! Damp David it is! They'll be sorry!

Attorney: Good decision, Mr. President. I'd announce it right away.

Donwald: Whatever. I'll say something after my round this morning at Trump National.

There was that Motel 6 in Dubuque, the Holiday Inn in downtown Detroit, the Boy Scout camp in northern Minnesota, the dude ranch in Wyoming, the Super 8 in Fresno... the Doral is much nicer than those dumps! Mulvaney should have given out that list so everybody would know I chose the best place!

"Donwald: What? Really? They won't come? But, I was counting on the G7 to solve Doral's problems and put off the bankruptcy thing a little longer."

At some point he won't be president. His brand will be such shit. The people patronizing his properties now for political reasons will no longer have a reason to do so. He will be bankrupting all his properties and his children and future generations will be poor. How nice will that be?

The reason people spend money on his places is to impress him and gain some favor. When that motivation no longer exists who is going to bother?

I don’t think he’ll even be able to use his name for profit either. The Trump brand will be finished for good. He won’t laundering anyone’s money.

I think MoscowMitch answered the phone and told him that he might not be able to hold off a conviction for that article of impeachment.
