Упомянутый Howard Lorber - приятель Трампа, который известен российскими связями и в 1996 привозил Трампа в Москву, чтобы договариваться с Лужковым о совместных проектах.
Businessman and investor Howard Lorber already donated $100,000 to the Trump Victory fund, has been named as one of Trump’s “best friends” and even appeared once on “The Apprentice.” He is also president and chief executive of the Vector Group, a holding company that has various business interests in Russia. In 1996, Lorber brought Trump to Moscow to look for opportunities for Trump to lend his famous name to development projects there. “Howard has major investments in Russia,” Trump told Russian politician Alexander Ivanovich Lebed after his trip to Moscow with Lorber, according to a 1997 profile of Trump in the New Yorker. “See, they don’t know you,” Trump told Lorber. “With all that investment, they don’t know you. Trump they know.” At that time, Trump and Lorber were discussing Trump building a huge luxury residential tower in Moscow as part of a project owned by a subsidiary of Lorber’s firm. The project never took off, but it was only one in a long line of projects Trump tried to start in Russia during his string of visits there dating back to the time of the Soviet Union. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/josh-rogin/wp/2016/08/10/another-trump-adviser-with-deep-ties-to-russia/
When asked through his spokeswoman to name his best friends, Mr. Trump mentioned two New Yorkers: Mr. LeFrak and Howard M.

One of Calk’s contacts in New York was Howard Lorber, the wealthy CEO of the holding company Vector Group and a longtime friend of the future president. Lorber’s firm made a seven-digit investment in The Federal Savings Bank, according to testimony that Calk provided in 2015. The Federal Savings Bank also entered into a partnership in 2014 with Douglas Elliman Real Estate, a New York-based brokerage firm that is controlled by Vector’s real estate subsidiary. Calk said in a press release at the time that the deal represented an opportunity to finance more than $12 billion in annual real estate sales. But after Douglas Elliman employees complained that the bank’s rates were uncompetitive and loans were taking too long to close, Calk’s relationship with Lorber soured. As part of an ensuing court case, Lorber said that Calk had not been transparent with him. <...> Despite their falling-out, Calk and Lorber were both named to Trump’s 14-member economic advisory council on Aug. 5, 2016. https://www.americanbanker.com/news/the-community-banker-who-got-tangled-up-in-the-russia-probe
