Probably both.
I don't know, maybe. Trump more likely money laundering for the sextraffickers and a Procurer, via Mar-a-Lardo European temp employees at his "spa."
Donald Trump Most Likely Raped Girls With Pedophile Epstein

This dude Lutnick is such a sychophant that he's literally trying to rewrite the rules of math to kiss up to Trump.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

Also, several of these foreign movies, at least in Best Foreign Picture, could be movies about Palestinians:
- Voice of Hind Rajab
- Palestine 36
- All That's Left of You
And, another aside, Sirat, which I just saw, was excellent and filmed in Morocco.

Need some distraction? Here are two random Oscar predictions.
1) If three foreign movies get Best Picture nominations this year, which is very possible, the Academy's old guard will start arguing that they should be ineligible.
2) The Michael B. Jordan Best Actor nomination is shakier than it looks.
