Follow the $$$

President Donald Trump still has not taken the necessary steps to distance himself from his businesses while in office. In accordance with a plan that he and one of his lawyers, Sheri Dillon, laid out at a press conference on January 11, Trump has filed paperwork to remove himself from the day-to-day operation of his eponymous organization. However, numerous ethics experts have voiced strenuous objections to the plan, which they say does very little to resolve the issue: As long as Trump continues to profit from his business empire—which he does whether or not he is nominally in charge—they say, the possibility that outside actors will attempt to affect his policies by plumping up his pocketbook will remain very much in play.





Donald Trump's Conflicts of Interest: A Crib Sheet

Reuters reported on April 26 that public pension funds in at least seven U.S. states periodically send millions of dollars to an investment fund that owns the upscale Trump SoHo Hotel and Condominium in New York City and pays a Trump company to run it, according to a Reuters review of public records.

“Trump may be profiting from the retirement plans of millions of our nation’s public servants,” Senator Patty Murray of Washington state wrote in a letter to Walter Shaub, the director of the Office of Government Ethics, citing the Reuters report.


“This looks like exactly the type of monetary flow prohibited by the Constitution,” said the senator.



Murray, who is on the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, asked Shaub to assess what steps Trump can take to ensure he is in compliance with Article II of the U.S. Constitution, which bars the president from receiving additional payments beyond his salary from state governments.

Democratic Senator Ben Cardin of Maryland said Trump was setting “an extremely dangerous precedent” by maintaining ownership.












Senator asks ethics office to review Trump hotel payments
Trump says won't divest from his business while president

lol Apparently these two Democrat senators are worried that the President many do something nice for these pensioners in gratitude.

Apparently they give a shit about the constitution. Oh my, revolutionary.

What you mean is they daily shit on the Constitution in their efforts to generate negative stories about the President.

No one generates negative stories about donnie, other than donnie&friends.

That's only true if you consider Democrats like Patty and Joe his friends.

Reuters reported on April 26 that public pension funds in at least seven U.S. states periodically send millions of dollars to an investment fund that owns the upscale Trump SoHo Hotel and Condominium in New York City and pays a Trump (owned) company to run it, according to a Reuters review of public records.

yea, ivanka.
They don't even have any investments in that. From what I have gathered, they act like a rental company overseeing the property. That's it. Bitch about something that actually matters. Like him selling arms to a terrorist Nation.

this actually does matter and it is not the only thing he is still raking in cash from, unconstitutionally. He did not divest as promised, and is setting a very baad precedent.

But yes, to deflect off topic, he did recently sell arms to a nation that produced most of the 9/11 attackers.

How is it unconstitutional?

Im sorry darling. Listening to other people speak their opinion doesn't do it for me. Since you know they are correct, you shouldn't have any problem discussing the actual Constitution, yes?
So lets discuss it. First, start with linking the correct article/amendment and start from there.
