This story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Donald Trump was continuing to ask fossil-fuel executives to fund his presidential campaign on Wednesday, despite scrutiny of his relationship with the industry. The former president attended a fundraising luncheon at Houston’s Post Oak hotel hosted by three Big Oil executives. The invitation-only meeting comes a day after the defense rested its case in Trump’s criminal hush-money trial, and a week after Houston was battered by deadly storms.
