Trump backed out at the last minute to save face. Doesn't erase his involvement, and it's a safe assumption that if he'd lost the election he would have kept the deal going.

The Baku hotel disaster that may be Trump's most disastrous deal ever: Scrapped Azerbaijan project was led by corrupt oligarchs and had links to Iran's Revolutionary Guard
- Trump Tower Baku in Azerbaijan was cancelled by the president in December
- The $35 million project was launched by Azerbaijani family the Mammadovs
- They hold seats in parliament and have ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guard
- Trump agreed to license the family name for the project but did not invest in it
- Ivanka visited in 2014 and is considered a 'dear friend' of Anar Mammadov
- The Mammadovs are widely suspected of corruption in the country
- Anar Mammadov has spent $13 million lobbying US Officials on behalf of the American Azerbaijan Alliance
- Trump cancelled the project before he became president, claiming it was 'house cleaning'

Nah his scandals are like a bed of nails. One would've punctured anyone else's campaign but they kept him afloat.

I wonder, is this the new Benghazi?

He decided to follow the law only when it mattered to him playing president.

Ever hear of something called "due dilligence"? When you own a company and are thinking about partnering with another business, you are suppose to do due diligence to fully understand what your potential liabilites may be up front, and further on down the road.

I'm certain Trump's people did due diligence and decided "**** it". Lots of money to be made. Damn the torpedoes.
