He wasn't. He was elected via electoral college system.

I can't decide if this guy was shite at understanding "ethics," or one hell of a lawyer to quickly shut down investigations into unethical behavior.

And yet every electoral board approved obama to run for president. Trump and his brother stuff was dumb.

His conflicts of interest are very real and we deserve to know how deep they run.

This may prove to be tricky for trump and his refusal to produce tax returns. On the surface they are definitely discoverable. We will see why legal argument his attorneys come up with.

He should have put his assets in a blind trust. His stubbornness will eventually be his downfall

That may work for stocks, bonds and derivatives, but DT owns hard assets.

It's not like Obama did not have one of the most politicized White House's in recent memory

It's a bunch of bull shite.

DOJ has already said there is no conflict


Please try a new line of attack.....you guys haven't tried pedophilia, murder or rape yet.

How so? The issue is whether he violated the emoluments clause AS SITTING PRESIDENT...not as Joe Citizen. What his tax returns show prior to taking oath has no relevance to the issue before the court.

CNN the real fake news.


I always knew CNN was full of it but watching the fake protest, that is it they are done, linking them might as well be linking Alex Jones.

Didn't George Washington and others have substantial agriculture businesses that were trading with foreign businesses during their presidency?


What I've read is that the records were destroyed years ago, so we don't really know either way.

How is it a states attorney generals purview to sue the Federal Executive Branch on a constitutional question about ownership of a company that the Head of the Executive Branch has legally separated himself from said company? whew that was long!

The Russian "investigation" is a farce that only exists because the media is corrupt
