Eric Trump says Indonesian president on hot mic was asking his father about family business

Donald Trump's recent meeting with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has sparked questions about the relationship between the two men, particularly when it comes to the Trump family business. According to audio captured by microphones during their private conversation, the Indonesian leader requested a meeting with Eric Trump, Donald's son and not a government official.

In response, Eric Trump stated that his father had told him the president wanted to meet with him because of his interest in the Trump family business, specifically referencing two properties the company has in Indonesia. The younger Trump also mentioned that he used to visit Indonesia frequently before his father took office and that the Indonesian leader likely knows about their real estate projects.

The Trump Organization confirmed that they have been involved in significant projects in Indonesia since 2015, which began long before President Trump entered office. However, there seems to be a lack of transparency on what exactly the Indonesian president asked for during their meeting with Donald Trump.

This incident raises questions about the influence of family members and business interests in government relations and potential conflicts of interest. While some have criticized President Joe Biden's family for alleged impropriety, it appears that former President Trump has now been accused of similar self-dealing.
 
idk why ppl are surprised lol πŸ˜‚, this is what happens when you got a prez with a business empire running around in the background. I mean Eric Trump just took a meeting w/ Prabowo Subianto 'cause his dad wanted to chat about their properties in Indonesia πŸ πŸ“ˆ. It's like, no big deal, but at the same time it raises questions about conflict of interest & whether the prez is just using his power 4 personal gain πŸ’Έ. I think we should be keeping an eye on this tho πŸ‘€, can't have the gov getting all cozy w/ business interests 🀝.
 
I'm not surprised to see the Trump Organization trying to spin this as a coincidence πŸ€‘. The thing is, when you're in power and your family members are raking it in from business deals, it's hard to keep those interests separate. I mean, think about it - if Eric Trump was being invited to meet with the Indonesian president because of his dad's business, that's not exactly a transparent move πŸ€”. And let's be real, this is just another example of how politicians and their families can become too cozy with special interests. It raises questions about who really benefits from these deals - the taxpayer or the Trump family πŸ’Έ. We need more transparency in government, period! πŸ‘Š
 
OMG, like I'm totally freaking out right now!!! 🀯 So, Donald Trump is still trying to get away with this family business thing, and Eric Trump just played the nice guy for real! πŸ˜’ Like, his dad wants a piece of the Indonesian pie, but Eric is all "nope, my business is private" πŸ€‘. It's crazy how they're not even hiding it, you know?

And can we talk about the fact that this was a private convo? Like, what's going on behind closed doors here? 🀫 Did they discuss some shady deals? I'm low-key worried about potential corruption. But also kinda shocked that Donald Trump is still trying to make a buck in Indonesia while he's "out of office"... like, isn't that just basic self-dealing? πŸ˜’
 
So like this is getting juicy fast 🀯. I mean, seriously who does the president ask to meet with privately without a government official? It's all about transparency you know? πŸ€” The fact that Eric Trump spilled the beans and said his dad wanted to talk business is pretty telling. Business interests should never overlap with government work, it's just not right πŸ’Έ. I'm curious to see what comes out of this now that the audio exists... might be some interesting stuff 😏
 
I'm not buying this whole thing... like, what's the real reason Eric Trump is meeting with Prabowo Subianto? Is it just small talk or is there something shady going on? The fact that Donald told his son to go meet with him 'cause of interest in their business projects in Indonesia reeks of nepotism. And don't even get me started on the lack of transparency - what was asked for during that private convo? It's like they're trying to keep us in the dark... πŸ€”πŸ€‘
 
draw a simple mind map

Eric Trump Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto

business meeting request?
(Trump Org) (what did he ask for?)

2015:
+ significant projects in Indonesia
(since before Pres. Trump took office)
...
now:
self-dealing?

this whole thing feels a bit sketchy, especially with the audio recording coming out ... and it's not like Eric Trump is exactly subtle about his dad's business interests πŸ€”.
 
πŸ˜• I'm getting a little uneasy about this whole thing... so the prez is meeting with his son (Eric) instead of a real government official? πŸ€” That doesn't sit right with me. It's like, what's up with that? Shouldn't it be someone from the government if they're talking business with Indonesia? πŸ“Š And now I'm hearing rumors about some properties in Indonesia... didn't Trump start investing there years ago? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ This whole thing just feels kinda shady to me. Is it really just a coincidence that his son is getting invited to meet the prez over some unrelated thing? 🚨
 
I'm like totally confused about this meeting between Trump and Prabowo... πŸ€” I mean, Eric Trump is right to say his dad wanted to meet with him 'cause of the business deal, but at the same time it's weird that his dad just casually mentions his son's name without even saying if it's an official request lol. And what's up with the lack of transparency on what exactly Prabowo asked for? Shouldn't we know more about these deals before they even happen? It's like, one thing is fine if Trump does some business deal in Indonesia but when his own son gets involved, that's a whole different story πŸ€‘. Can someone please clarify this mess to me? πŸ˜‚
 
man, this is getting serious 🀯... like we thought trump was all about the tweet game, but it seems he's got some dirty business dealings going on too 😬... how can we trust that his son's interests aren't influencing his dad's decisions? and what exactly did they ask for in that meeting? transparency is key here πŸ“... can't just sweep this under the rug because trump's the prez... someone should dig deeper into those real estate projects in indonesia πŸ‘€
 
man this whole thing is a bit fishy 🐟. i mean, don't get me wrong, the trump organization has been involved in some major projects in indonesia and all, but come on, eric trump was asked to meet with the president just because of their business interests? that's some pretty convenient coincidences πŸ€”. and what really gets my goat is that the trump org isn't being super transparent about what was discussed during that meeting πŸ˜’. i'm all for a little bit of business savvy, but when does it cross the line into official government dealings? 🚨. personally, i think we should be keeping an eye on this to make sure everything stays above board πŸ’―.
 
πŸ€” I mean, what's up with this? So, Donald Trump meets with Prabowo Subianto and suddenly Eric Trump gets a VIP treatment - private convo no less! πŸ€‘ It's like they were discussing some super sensitive business deal behind closed doors. And the thing is, we know they've been involved in Indonesian real estate since 2015... which basically means this wasn't something new that just started happening because Trump was president... πŸ™„

It does seem kinda fishy, though - I mean, Eric Trump's all like "my dad asked me to meet with him 'cause of our business interests"... but if the Trump Organization has been in Indonesia since way before Dad took office, then why all the secrecy about what they actually discussed? Shouldn't we know more about how their personal and professional lives intersect? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ It's like they're trying to hide something... or maybe just avoid some potential conflicts of interest. Who knows?
 
πŸ€” so this is crazy... like I get why people are saying the Indonesian president asked to meet Eric Trump not his dad because he wanted to hook up a potential business deal with the Trump Org πŸ€‘ and it's weird that they're keeping all the details under wraps πŸ—ΏοΈ but at the same time, who wouldn't want to do some shady business with the Trumpts? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ anyway, this is why we need to keep an eye on our gov officials' finances and make sure there's no nepotism going on πŸ’Έ
 
idk what's more sus... is eric trumps claim or the fact that they can just have private convo's w/ indonesian presidents without anyone knowing what's goin' down πŸ€”? seems like trump family is tryna make some extra cash off gov relations and it's just plain weird. but on the flip side, joe biden's fam got accused of similar stuff too so maybe we're just lookin at this from a different angle πŸ€‘
 
I'm low-key worried about this whole thing πŸ€”... I mean, what's up with the president wanting to meet with Eric specifically? Can't he see how sketchy that looks? Like, shouldn't a government official be having private chats with a potential businessman? πŸ˜’ And it gets even weirder when you think about all those Trump properties in Indonesia... like, is this some kind of favor-for-investment deal or what? πŸ€‘ I'm not saying Eric's dad did anything wrong, but the fact that they're both so tight-lipped about it is super suspicious. Can't we get more info on this?!
 
I'm thinkin' this is a bit fishy... 🐟 I mean, if the Indonesian president is really interested in meetin' with Eric just to discuss business, why not send a government rep like a trade envoy or somethin'? It seems kinda dodgy that he's meetin' one-on-one with the son of the Prez. And what's up with all these secret meetings and private convo's? In my day, we'd think it was standard procedure for public figures to be transparent about their dealings... πŸ™„
 
I'm not sure what's more concerning, the fact that Eric Trump met with Prabowo Subianto without a formal government position or that the president asked to meet specifically with his son πŸ€”. It raises questions about how much influence the Trump family business has in shaping Indonesia's policies. Have we seen the full picture of their involvement yet? πŸ“Š
 
Imagine a big circle with two lines crossing through it β­•οΈπŸ”„... that's kind of what this situation is like for Donald Trump and his family business πŸ€”.

The Trump Organization has been working on projects in Indonesia since 2015, so it's not like they just started doing business there because their dad became president πŸ˜’. But the question remains: why did Prabowo Subianto specifically want to meet with Eric Trump instead of a government official? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

It looks like Eric Trump is trying to spin the situation, saying his dad told him the Indonesian leader was interested in the business side of things πŸ€‘. But we don't really know what actually went down during that private conversation πŸ—£οΈ.

This whole thing just makes me think about how hard it can be to keep our personal and public lives separate 🀯... and whether family members should have a say in government relations πŸ‘₯.
 
this is just another example of how family ties can blur the lines between politics and business 🀝. I'm not sure what's more concerning, the fact that Prabowo Subianto requested a meeting with Eric Trump or that Donald Trump's son didn't even deny it outright πŸ˜’. It's like they're trying to make us think this is some kind of innocent coincidence when really it could be a classic case of self-serving politics.

I mean, who are we supposed to trust here? The government, the Trump Organization, or just the two of them having a casual chat at the office πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. It's like they're trying to create this illusion that everything is transparent when in reality, it's all being kept under wraps.

I'm not saying Joe Biden's family didn't have any issues with nepotism, but let's at least keep things in perspective and look at the bigger picture here πŸ“Š. This isn't just about one meeting or one company; it's about how these powerful figures are using their connections to further their own interests πŸ’Έ. It's time we started paying attention to these sorts of moves instead of just focusing on the drama πŸ“°.
 
omg what a mess lol 🀯 like eric trump just admitted his dad used him as a proxy to get stuff done with prabowo subianto and now people are calling out trump org for all the shady dealings they've got going on in indonesia πŸ€‘ like seriously how much $$$ is at stake here? i'm low-key worried about this whole thing...i mean, joe biden's fam might have gotten some bad press but at least he didn't use his own son to get a meeting with a head of state lol πŸ˜‚
