Republicans for the Rule of Law legal advisor and spokesman Chris Truax pointed out that"enriching those who hold power" is not one of the responsibilities of the federal government laid out in the Constitution.
Truax argued that members of Trump's cabinet"would be in jail" if they behaved in the same manner as the president."Not allowing politicians to line their own pockets with taxpayer money is Democracy 101," he pointed out.in foreign contributions since he took office. The governments of numerous Middle Eastern nations, and in particular Saudi Arabia, have booked expensive stays at the president's luxury hotels in New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C.
"The Foreign Emoluments Clause is the core anti-corruption clause of Art I. The Domestic Emoluments Clause is the core anti-profiteering clause of Art II," Constitutional legal scholar Laurence Tribe, a professor at Harvard University,in a tweet earlier this month."Congress' consent is key to the first. It's irrelevant to the second. Trump is violating both."
BAHAHAHAHA
“The President, Vice President and all Civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” — U.S. Constitution, Article II, section 4 He's done all of that!
This is nothing. The hardcore trumpers have taken over the right. One small real Republican group won't matter. Let's not rely on any poll or news story. There is a fight to be won on election Day and everyone must act and vote.
Well that would be a start but they need to do more....
subooor_2016 I've the photograph.. in America life is about photograph albums.
1Sparkyman I won’t believe it until I see it.
Trump's disgraced the GOP and they have consistently enabled him so far.
. There is no American Republican Party left. Who are these people Is this a New Republican Party Or something like the old Tea Party They put up crap like Cruz.
realDonaldTrump GOP TheJusticeDept FLOTUS WhiteHouse
I wonder how much $$ Trump will offer said groups to back off...? Maybe they are even fishing for cash.. Who knows with the GOP of the last 2 years.
GargoylePhan But are they newly against him, or are they the same NeverTrumpers that have said things before? It doesn’t mean a think if these aren’t people who have been supporting him.
May as well be “Republicans in Alliance for the Common Good”. Can’t imagine who would create a fake grp. like that.
Just an awful president.
newsweak
KatDote What “Republican group?”
Isn’t it the choice of the foreign dignitaries to stay where they want. Do you have proof of Trump demanding they stay at his hotels. If not you’re arguments are with them.
SpeakerPelosi what does Trump have on you, that you would continuously deny impeachment. Even a blind man can see he needs to go! What are you afraid of? He is destroying this country brick by brick and you all are conspirators to these atrocities by sitting and watching.
That’s gotta be a damn small group. 🤣💦
The biggest problem with this article is defining the trump properties as 'luxury.' they may charge those prices, but their service is the worst. Ritz-Carlton or Four Seasons are far better choices and the St. Regis blows them all away. TrumpHotelsSuck
LOL. GOP is gutless and spineless. But every dog has its day. We will remember starting with Merrick Garland
Blatant bribery should be rewarded with impeachment, indictment, and imprisonment.
It's almost embarrassing that a Republican group will do what SpeakerPelosi will not.
'Republican'
Uh oh. The beginning is the end is the beginning is.....
jeffgoldesq They all anyone associated with him need to resign or retire. Enough already. As a regular down to earth American Citizen who is so grateful for freedom, please just go.
. The ad features Saudi Arabian & Bahraini booking Trump properties and highlights how Trump has piled up over 30 new trademarks in China since taking office. 'Not allowing politicians to line their own pockets with taxpayer money is Democracy 101.”
jeffgoldesq Really? So what’s the scoop
It's a start. Someone will need to rebuild the GOP after Trump leaves it a smoking pile of ashes.
Not good enough
Looking forward to it! When will it be aired?
NewsWeak is becoming synonymous with 'white noise'
Wow that's a first don't tell me some of them are standing up that's unbelievable.
Propaganda. In your own country against your elected president. Getting desperate
Oops.......caught with hands in cookie jar..What a shame !
Good.
