self-interest

In his first interview, Jack Gilbert said he uncovered what he considered questionable practices and believes Captain Sir Tom Moore’s daughter was partly motivated by self-interest.

He is obsessed with expanding the realm of his own self-interest and getting and exercising more corrupt power; “politics,” however defined and understood, is just a means to an end for Trump.

He imagined a future in which “resources and livable conditions are scarce. Scarcity is the rule, and requires a degree of self-interest. Population problems are beyond solution by migration. No habitable unclaimed lands remain.”

“Let's dispense with any idea that climate finance is charity. An ambitious new climate finance goal is entirely in the self-interest of every nation, including the largest and wealthiest,” he told delegates.

Trump “doesn’t have much ideology, except self, so probably it depends on what he thinks is in his self-interest.”
