It IS effectively what you've said.
False. No. It isn’t.
Again, not what I said at all.Accounding to what you are saying - all a president has to do to collect payments is put up some bussiness front about supposedly renting out a property, or some other service and then it's totally fine for him to pocket whatever he wants.
Your lies carry no weight.
Trump ran his businesses before becoming President. They weren’t “fronts,” you dishonest cretin. (Your boy Potato can’t say the same.)
Upon becoming President, those businesses remain in his family and there’s no reason to do anything but.
If the Chinese government is having some business meetings here with some of their state owned businesses — involving business meetings with lots of their people coming over here — China likely can’t put them all up at their embassy. So, they get hotels. If a Trump property is used, then his company can certainly accept payment. That was never intended to be covered by the emoluments clause in question.
And yes. It is perfectly fine for the owner of the company to pocket profits.
