The perception that Trump is being persecuted and prosecuted for political purposes is exactly backwards. If Trump were not a political figure, he would have been banging his tin cup on the bars of his cell already.
MAGAts you know that a demented Fat Orange Clown cannot live only on hotel revenues paid by those registered with foreign countries…even if they never check-in. Wipe the grease off of those dollar bills and send them to your cult leader TODAY!
Right now, I don’t care if they meet there, because any money the GQP spends at a Trump property will be used to pay for the damages he owes to the State of New York.
The so-called “Republican” party was chosen/joined by the people — who (themselves chosen} faithfully obey the voice of their omnipotent invisible being (that only they can perceive) — and exclusively forgive their party for all transgressions past, present, and future … but any other party does not receive their mercy and is [preemptively] judged harshly.
Their like the three muses in the Percy Jackson books by Rick Riordan, but rather that having only one eye, these dweebs have one brain cell, and like Riordan’s muses they keep losing it.
The leftist media were mewling about Trump violating the Emoluments Clause back in June 2017, back when the iPhone 8 was introduced. Apparently the attempts to get him removed from state ballots isn’t working, even Uber-left California turned it down, so it’s time to pull a dead horse out of the hat from seven years ago!
Why don’t they just beat the bad orange man at the ballot box? Just trot your Weekend at Bernie’s candidate down the baby steps of AF1 every couple weeks or so and it’s a done deal! I would prefer a different candidate than Trump, but it looks like he’s going to be the one. At least he would do something about Biden’s wide-open border.
• Article I, Section 9, Clause 8 of the Constitution forbids the President to accept money payments or gifts “of any kind whatever” from foreign governments and monarchs unless he obtains “the Consent of the Congress” to do so.
• Yet trump, while holding the office of president, used his business entities to pocket millions of dollars from foreign states and royalty and never once went to Congress to seek its consent.
• This report sets forth the records showing foreign government money—and all the spoils from royals we can find—pouring into hotels and buildings that the President continued to own during his presidency, all in direct violation of the Constitutional prohibition.
• To be sure, we know about only some of the payments that passed into former President trump’s hands during just two years of his presidency from just 20 of the more than 190 nations in the world through just four of his more than 500 businesses.
• Despite the Constitution’s requirement that a president disclose foreign emoluments and seek Congress’s consent to keep them, it took Oversight Committee Democrats years of aggressive litigation against the former President to obtain the subset of documents from Mazars, trump’s accounting firm, that form the factual basis of this report.
• The report’s detailed findings make clear that we don’t have the laws in place to deal with a president who is willing to brazenly convert the presidency into a business for self-enrichment and wealth maximization with the collusive participation of foreign states.
I find it to be strange that the only bit of the constitution the GQP gives a ship about is the second amendment. The rest seems to be disposable based on party affiliation. Oh, and don’t think they wouldn’t be selective about disarming black people if the gun industry didn’t mind losing money on that sector of the population.
Remember, Traitor Trump was bribing politicians (usually Republicans even when he himself was a Democrat) for decades before entering politics himself, and taking bribes even before the election, and most days afterwards. He probably thought (for thinking he considered it), “Fair is fair.”
At last, we find out why the MAGAts have been pushing that weird bumph about Biden getting money from China. It’s been to proactively deflect from tRump’s emolument violations. This goes beyond even their usual projection.
Reading all this about why the orange coup coup coup coup can’t do something is hilarious – no one is stopping him, he is being enabled and even supported to overthrow a legitimate democracy and a legitimately elected president. The only person serious about putting him in place is (choke, choke..) Chris Christie. Seriously – have people lost their minds with this orange con duck coup coup individual who thinks that if you put magnets in water they are no longer magnetized???
