      <title>Trump's sons profiting from pentagon drone contracts</title>

      <description>Trump's sons are using their father's fame to invest in war drones</description>
      <wordzilla:extended>So here's the latest entry in the Trump family business model&quot;the revolving door between public power and private profit.
&lt;p&gt;The administration bans new Chinese drones in the United States, creating a sudden gap in the market. The Pentagon begins pushing for rapid adoption of small drones. Billions of dollars about to be spent.
&lt;p&gt;And who just happens to be stepping in to &quot;fill the hole&quot;?
&lt;p&gt;A drone company backed by Donald Trump Jr.
&lt;p&gt;The venture, Power US, is merging with a publicly traded company tied to Trump-backed golf holdings. Investors include Trump-linked investment vehicles and a drone components firm where Trump Jr. is both a shareholder and advisory board member.
&lt;p&gt;So the policy creates the market.
&lt;p&gt;The market creates the opportunity.
&lt;p&gt;And the opportunity lands&quot;again&quot;in the family portfolio.
&lt;p&gt;In other words: government action clears the runway ...  and the Trump family's business takes off.
&lt;p&gt;Is this war profiteering? Profiting from war is legal, but if you're the president's sons with insider access to contracts? You be the judge.
&lt;p&gt;Whatever you call it.....it's...
&lt;p&gt;Nice work if you can get it.
