A top executive from Donald Trump’s real estate company emailed Vladi*mir Putin’s personal spokesman during the U.S. presidential campaign last year to ask for help advancing a stalled Trump Tower development project in Moscow (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trumps-business-sought-deal-on-a-trump-tower-in-moscow-while-he-ran-for-president/2017/08/27/d6e95114-8b65-11e7-91d5-ab4e4bb76a3a_story.html?utm_term=.bdec99631fdd), according to documents submitted to Congress Monday...

Yes.


“no person holding any office of profit or trust…shall, without the consent of Congress, accept…any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state.”

It says a lot about people who, shamelessly, with no shame at all, none, just keep making bigger and bigger fools of themselves. Bo is the king of this too.

It's a personality disorder. Has to be.

The emoluments clause has nothing to do with businesses.

It has to do with gifts and titles.

Anyway, business goes on.



George Washington was the first president to stay in the real estate business (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/04/14/george-washington-was-the-first-president-to-stay-in-the-real-estate-business/?utm_term=.6ad7a923e911)
