Trump
Wants
to Be President
But will mob ties derail the
flamboyant frontman?
By Michael Collins

. Donald
Trump’s rise to stardom came as a consequence of his
having been a flamboyant frontman for some unsavory behind-the-scenes
sponsors. Here’s the story:
 In
his memoir, Trump proudly described how in 1987 he bought
his first casino interests when he purchased 93 percent
of the voting stock in the Resorts International (RI) gambling
concern.
What
Trump didn’t say was that RI was controlled by a clique
of sordid, international big-money elements in alliance
with the Jewish crime syndicate which was, in turn, collaborating
with the CIA and Israel’s Mossad in an array of inter-connected
money-laundering operations. The casinos laundered money
for the CIA and the Mossad. In return, these agencies used
their influence to ensure the mob remained protected from
interference by law enforcement.
To
understand where Trump fits in, we turn to RI’s murky
origins. RI evolved from a CIA front — the Mary Carter
Paint Company — set up in the 1950s by then-CIA director
Allen Dulles and his close associate, New York Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey, a leader of the “Rockefeller wing”
of the GOP. While the company did in fact operate a national
paint store chain, its real purpose was to function as a
covert CIA money-laundering operation.
In
1958 and 1959 Dewey and several associates used CIA funds
to buy a controlling interest in the Crosby-Miller Corporation
(headed by Dewey friend James Crosby), which was then merged
with Mary Carter.
The
new concern laundered CIA money for the arming of the anti-Castro
Cuban exiles and also launched lucrative gambling enterprises
in the Caribbean where the CIA was active, having engaged
the Meyer Lansky crime syndicate in plots to topple Fidel
Castro.
How
many law-abiding Americans who bought Mary Carter’s
paint would have thought they were funding a joint CIA-mob
operation posing behind the smiling face of a “typical
American housewife,” the fictional “Mary Carter”
whose visage adorned its products?
In
1963 the company spun off its paint division and began focusing
on its casino operations, particularly in the Bahamas. In
1967 and 1968 Mary Carter changed its name to Resorts International
and expanded. Several principal investors provided the assets:
•
Meyer Lansky, the “chairman of the board” of
the Jewish crime syndicate;
•
David Rockefeller, who provided his family’s clout
with the CIA and in global banking to assist;
•
The Investors Overseas Service, then the world’s largest
“flight-capital” conglomerate, headed by notorious
Bernard Cornfeld who was no more than a frontman for two
behind-the-scenes principals:
•
Tibor Rosenbaum, the Mossad’s Swiss-based arms procurer,
who headed the Banque De Credit Internationale of Geneva,
the Lansky syndicate’s chief European money launderer;
•
Baron Edmond de Rothschild of the infamous banking family
and a personal business partner of Rosenbaum in many Mossad-related
ventures; and
•
William Mellon Hitchcock, an heir to the Mellon dynasty
— one of America’s largest family fortunes which
has collaborated closely with the CIA for years.
In
1970 the mob moved to expand legalized gambling on U.S.
soil. Mob chief Lansky called a high-level syndicate conference
where the fading resort of Atlantic City was pinpointed
as their new target. Prior to this, Lansky-controlled Nevada
was the only outpost of legal gambling in the United States.
RI’s resources were used to finance the lobbying campaign
that brought legalized gambling to Atlantic City and RI
quickly moved in.
In
1987 upon the death of RI’s nominal head — CIA
frontman James Crosby — up-and-coming New York real
estate tycoon Trump stepped in and bought Crosby’s
RI holdings. So while the name “Trump” appeared
in the headlines, RI’s real movers remained hidden
from public view.
Trump
shed his RI investments in his much-publicized “bankruptcy”
but he remains a major player in the gambling industry —
and now he may be running for president of the United States.
