Trumps cashing in already
, Trump's newest hotel was already advertising itself as a way for foreign diplomats to curry favor with the newest president.
There is a bit of a legal problem here, in that a president accepting gifts from foreign diplomats is explicitly barred in the Constitution itself, and it doesn't take a great deal of deduction to presume that diplomats staying in hotel that funnels cash to Trump's own pockets counts as a gift. It's still a gift if the company is run by the president's daughter. The press and Republican party usually works itself into an orgy of reprobation and over even the optics of such a thing. There would be hearings. There would be Fox News specials. Both Sean Hannity and the New York Times front page would both be shouting in all-caps about something like that—during other times, or if the news touched seemingly any other candidate but this one.
It's been a week, and Trump is well on his way to becoming most crooked president in history
