I’d counter that decimating all the departments actively investigating his interests was his primary motivation and the contracts were just a little extra self dealing on top…
Though it would be great fun to watch him exit now going full self righteous on the way out, only to have his companies bankrupted once the new gov contracts are cancelled, because he’d destroyed all their other income sources during his crusade to save himself.
Yes, good point. He was in it for both of those things and probably a bunch of other less obvious stuff. I’d like to see the contracts cancelled and the investigations re-opened.
