BONK!

Carter placed his peanut farm in a trust managed by his brother, an immediate family member.

Trump placed the Trump Organization in the hands of his kids, immediate family members.

So no, Carter did not have to sell his peanut farm, anymore than Reagan had to sell his Ranch.

Ronald Reagan hosted Thatcher and Gorbachev at the Rancho del Cielo, and signed a tax bill there as well. Nobody considered that a violation of the Emoluments Clause.

As Alexander Hamilton described, the point of Emoluments is to stop others from influencing the President by giving him salaries or offices, NOT from the President from profiting off his own enterprises established decades before.

Failing?

"According to financial disclosure forms filed by Donald Trump, the Mar-a-Lago Club realized $29.7 million in gross revenues in the period June 2015 to May 2016."

Net was probably a LOT less.

big bucks becasue

I heard of her.

Another one of trump's crimes:

That little show the Obama holdovers put on at the DOJ playing nice with Hillary's crimes, that they swept under the rug.
Was them TRYING to get ahead of the Horowitz and Dunham reports and investigations. Hillary is going to wish like Fuck her Email server was the only issue in a few weeks.
Trump is going to see this through to Tribunals and Capital punishment. He's way past playing nice and moving on for the sake of the Country.

People who live in Shit tanks shouldn't fling Poo.
These fucksticks are going down hard.

marcus says

Can you say Liberal Plant?

ABC doesn't even broadcast Trump rallies. But they will show and film their Soros operatives.

Marcus, are you sure you're a Teacher? You lack the most basic sophistication to be an authority on any subject.

marcus says

The United States in this picture is who leveled the city. I am so fucking tired of the relentless propaganda that the United States is "helping".

marcus says

For Fuck's Sake...

OK, airhead, please produce the "emolument's clause" of the Constitution and copy it verbatim.

I am asking you to do this so you have some level of understanding of the level of propaganda you live in. I would bet $1,000 I won't get a response.

From the Constitution:
"No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State."

Please send the $1,000 you owe me to your favorite charity

emolument
n. Payment for an office or employment; compensation.
n. The profit arising from office or employment; that which is received as a compensation for services, or which is annexed to the possession of office, as salary, fees, and perquisites.
n. Profit; advantage; gain in general; that which promotes the good of any person or thing.

Sounds like something Hillary has done.

marcus says

I'm simply too lazy to explain why it's wrong,

Yep! Just Becasue!

You just wrote it. How is Trump violating the clause? Be specific.

richwicks says

How is Trump violating the clause?

Trump is not violating the clause, but Clinton, Obama, and Pelosi have.

marcus says

The national debt has grown, on average, doubling every 8 years, regardless of who has been prezdident since 1971 after the Nixon shock. People whine and moan that the national debt has doubled under Obozo for example, but it did the same under Duh. It only exposes how naive people are who whine about this. They've never looked up a logarithmic chart of the national debt, and they have selective memory about it.

I am reluctant to call people stupid, but they can be both naive and intentionally deceptive.

marcus says

Left's memes are great reminder to America about exactly what left is for and what they are against.
