When asked through his spokeswoman to name his best friends, Mr. Trump mentioned two New Yorkers: Mr. LeFrak and Howard M. Lorber, the chief executive of Vector Group, a holding company of real estate and cigarette concerns. Mr. Trump is also said to be close to his family: his third wife, Melania, and his children Donald Jr., 38; Ivanka, 34; and Eric, 32. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/13/nyregion/for-donald-trump-friends-in-few-places.html

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
