Constitutional Scholars To Sue Donald Trump Over D.C. Hotel And Other Businesses | The Huffington Post

A group including former White House ethics attorneys will file a lawsuit on Monday accusing President Donald Trump of allowing his businesses to accept payments from foreign governments, in violation of the U.S. Constitution.

Deepak Gupta, a Supreme Court litigator working on the case, said the lawsuit would allege that the Constitution’s emoluments clause forbids payments to Trump’s businesses. It will seek a court order forbidding Trump from accepting such payments, he said.

He won't be accepting payments. Those are just some confused libs trying to find a reason to get out of bed in the mornings.

He already indicated all such payments will go to the US Treasury. Just another butthurt Libturd attempt to get attention.

Not he, the business that he doesn't run now. This isn't rocket science. If it goes to the Treasury there goes the lining his own pockets argument and it isn't even needed. Show us where a president cannot own a business.

The recently opened Trump International Hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., is one of many properties that would lose the Trump name if the president-elect followed the advice of the Office of Government Ethics and divested his business holdings.

Alex Brandon/AP
At a Wednesday press conference, President-elect Donald Trump and his lawyer described the steps the real estate mogul would take to separate from his business empire while in office. It wasn't nearly enough, according to Office of Government Ethics Director Walter Shaub.

"The president is now entering a world of public service," Shaub said in a speech at the Brookings Institution. "He's going to be asking his own appointees to make sacrifices. He's going to be asking our men and women in uniform to risk their lives in conflicts around the world. So no, I don't think divestiture is too high a price to pay to be the president of the United States of America." U.S. Ethics Official: Trump's Divestiture Is Hard, Pricey And Essential

The Constitution expressly forbids the president from receiving money from foreign governments. The amount is not specified, just that the president can't accept money from foreign governments. If he owns the motel that foreign diplomats stay at, he is receiving money from foreign governments, regardless of what he does with it afterwards.

I thought you conservatives were all about the president following the Constitution. How come you don't think Trump has to follow it?

Try to keep up. President Trump has pledged to donate any money his hotel earns from foreign governments to the US Treasury.

Doesn't matter what he pledges to do with the money after he receives it. It's the receiving of money from a foreign government in the first place that the Constitution forbids. Doesn't matter if you keep it, burn it, or donate it afterwards, it's the initial receipt of the money that is the problem.

Now that is just plain stupid. The purpose of prohibiting the president from receiving money from foreign governments is to prevent him from altering US policy because of it, so if he is donating the money to the Treasury, it will not influence his decisions. Post like yours just demonstrate how intellectually vacuous Trump critics are.

It is you who are demonstrating your ignorance. Sorry, but it doesn't matter what he does with the money after he gets it, it's the initial payment that is the problem. And yeah, it could also be seen as an attempt to curry favor with him if they stay there and then meet with him afterwards.

WOW look!! The Weasel who never ever provides documentation to back up his assertions is telling me that I have to back mine up!! The Weasel who just makes shit up-who makes legal pronouncement that fly in the face of what is being said by people who actually know the law!! Here is more for you to chew on:

President-elect Donald Trump has a plan for the hotel profits from foreign government payments that everyone is worried about, but it may cause more trouble, not less. The emoluments clause of the Constitution says that "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." Trump's hotel chain sometimes hosts foreign dignitaries, who spend money to stay there. The question is, does that money buy them influence with the new administration? Trump Going Forward Part 2. Day By Day

Do you see anything there that provides an exception if he donates the money?? It continues

At a press conference today, tax attorney Sheri Dillon explained that while the emoluments clause doesn't apply to selling hotel rooms (others disagree), Trump would donate all the money he's made from foreign governments to the U.S. Treasury Department. In essence, as MSNBC legal correspondent Ari Melber points out, Trump would be taking foreign money, potentially bribes, and using them for gain, thereby adding to the conflicts and not decreasing them.

Trump’s ethics lawyer, Sheri Dillon, stressed during the press conference that Trump’s hotels’ receiving these payments did not violate the Emoluments Clause. But he was making the move to help taxpayers in the United States and to calm concerns about profits from foreign governments and to avoid any possible conflicts of interest.

Not everyone’s satisfied with the decision. Critics are saying that it’s still not enough to guarantee a lack of foreign influence, because his use of the word “profits” indicates that revenue will likely still be used for overhead and salaries first.

Horseshit! Donations to the Clinton foundation were not enriching her. Even if what she was doing was somehow improper, that does not change the situation with Trump. This happens all the time. You guys can't defend the Blathering Orange Twitter Troll so you have to make it about Clinton or Obama. That is nothing more than a cheep red herring type of logical fallacy that does not help your so called argument one bit.

lol Right, the same people who saw nothing wrong with Clinton selling influence at the State Department pretend to be worried about Trump being influenced by money he will donate to the Treasury.

Horseshit! Donations to the Clinton foundation were not enriching her. Even if what she was doing was somehow improper, that does not change the situation with Trump. This happens all the time. You guys can't defend the Blathering Orange Twitter Troll so you have to make it about Clinton or Obama. That is nothing more than a cheep red herring type of logical fallacy that does not help your so called argument one bit.

Bullshit, there is no situation with President Trump and neither you nor any of the so called ethics lawyers genuinely believes there is. You are simply trying to justify your irrational hostility toward President Trump with this nonsense.

And where did you get your la
And where did you get your law degree and training in ethics? Shit you must not even read very well or you would know that he has not divested himself of his business interests:

That won't cut it. You might want to back up your assertions instead of expecting others to do it for you. Again, the challenge was ...
"Not he, the business that he doesn't run now. This isn't rocket science. If it goes to the Treasury there goes the lining his own pockets argument and it isn't even needed. Show us where a president cannot own a business."

WOW look!! The Weasel who never ever provides documentation to back up his assertions is telling me that I have to back mine up!! The Weasel who just makes shit up-who makes legal pronouncement that fly in the face of what is being said by people who actually know the law!! Here is more for you to chew on:

President-elect Donald Trump has a plan for the hotel profits from foreign government payments that everyone is worried about, but it may cause more trouble, not less. The emoluments clause of the Constitution says that "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." Trump's hotel chain sometimes hosts foreign dignitaries, who spend money to stay there. The question is, does that money buy them influence with the new administration? Trump Going Forward Part 2. Day By Day

Do you see anything there that provides an exception if he donates the money?? It continues

At a press conference today, tax attorney Sheri Dillon explained that while the emoluments clause doesn't apply to selling hotel rooms (others disagree), Trump would donate all the money he's made from foreign governments to the U.S. Treasury Department. In essence, as MSNBC legal correspondent Ari Melber points out, Trump would be taking foreign money, potentially bribes, and using them for gain, thereby adding to the conflicts and not decreasing them.

Trump’s ethics lawyer, Sheri Dillon, stressed during the press conference that Trump’s hotels’ receiving these payments did not violate the Emoluments Clause. But he was making the move to help taxpayers in the United States and to calm concerns about profits from foreign governments and to avoid any possible conflicts of interest.

Not everyone’s satisfied with the decision.

Keep telling yourself that. You don't believe that he is in violation, but you fuckers would not shut up abpout Clinton which was a very different situation as I have explained.

Hey Limpdick. You make a claim, you back it up. Going all Sheila on us won't cut it. Fact is you can't back it up. If that's frustrating you then maybe the facts aren't the problem.

And the Clintons did travel on the Foundation dime, lots of dimes, so how is that not enrichening them?

No one believes he is in violation of the Constitution but since you are so ill informed about what his policies really are, you choose to post this nonsense.
