The story by investigative reporter Kurt Eichenwald — citing former Trump executives, court filings and internal company papers — says a company controlled by Trump spent at least $68,000 on a 1998 foray into Cuba. Trump executives allegedly hired an outfit called Seven Arrows Investment, which went to Cuba and investigated possible business opportunities for Trump's company, which was known at the time as Trump Hotels & Resort Casinos. Seven Arrows then told Trump executives how to obscure any dealings in Cuba by linking the money to a false charity, the Newsweek report alleges. "Putting money and investing money in Cuba right now doesn't go to the people of Cuba," he said. The Trump campaign has not responded to the magazine's allegations.
