Trump's Emoluments Mess

Do you really not understand it? Even now, you cannot grasp that foreigners staying at Trump's hotels and making it clear to Trump that they paid his hotel rates, stinks of bribery?? Trump was making money off the rooms. The foreigners stayed at his rooms to curry favor from Trump. I doubt any past presidents were informed so often about the hotel arrangements of foreign dignitaries and representatives.

we have a long, long history of precedence showing you are full of shit

from tobacco plantations, to Dreams of our father - presidents have made money on the side, even while in office

you are suck a fucking shit stain retard. try pulling from sources other then your idiotic echo chamber
 
Funny how the emoluments clause never popped up when a Secretary of State was shaking down foreign leaders for contributions to her phony Global Initiative.

Funny how liberals think the emoluments clause only applies to Presidents.

Funny how stupid liberals are.

No, it isn't. That's called a 'salary'.

Every trip to Mar-a-Lago is money in his pocket FROM THE GOVERNMENT and TAXPAYER. Every foreign guest staying there or at Trump Tower is money in his pocket from FOREIGN INTERESTS. He finally listened to his advisors and dodged the bullet at Doral.

No, it isn't. That is conducting a business, which would have happened whether he was the President or not.

'nuff said. False authority fallacy. You cannot use ProPublica, WNYC, or the LA Times as a valid source. Summarily dismissed.

Nope. It's just conducting a business. These contracts were in place before Trump became President.

She was? Prove it. It didn't go in her pocket, did it? Unlike Trump, who stole from his own charity for personal gain. That's why it was shut down. He used it to pay off business expenses, buy an expensive painting of himself. Basically, a personal checkbook. We'll see if he has to pay fines. The NY AG is seeking $5.6 million.
