How to lobby Trump with Swiss precision: gifts, gold and gab

Forget retaliation: To cut tariffs President Trump imposed on their country, the Swiss sent a delegation of industry tycoons bearing gifts — a special Rolex desktop clock, a 1-kilogram personalized gold bar, and loads of flattery.

Axar.az informs, citing Axios, Trump loves such pampering, and the word's out among nations and companies seeking his favor. Tributes fit for a king — especially gold — catch his eyes and his heart.

The Swiss bar, given to Trump during the delegation's visit on Nov. 4, was stamped with 45 and 47 in homage to his presidential terms. It's worth a little more than $130,000.

Trump accepted the gifts on behalf of his presidential library, making them legal, White House officials say.
