The Emoluments Clause, specifically the Foreign Emoluments Clause, is a provision in Article I, Section 9, Clause 8 of the U.S. Constitution. It prohibits individuals holding "any Office of Profit or Trust under them" (the United States) from accepting any "present, emolument, office, or title" from any foreign king, prince, or state, without the consent of Congress. Essentially, it prevents foreign powers from potentially influencing U.S. officials through gifts, benefits, or other forms of compensation.
It's a bribe. Also, the only reason he lifted sanctions against Syria was because they promised him a hotel.

I guess you missed this part:
quote:
The US Constitution generally prohibits the President, and all federal employees, from accepting gifts from foreign governments without the consent of Congress. However, there are exceptions, and Congress has often allowed for the acceptance of gifts of "minimal value". Gifts from foreign governments exceeding a certain value are considered gifts to the people of the United States and must be purchased from the General Services Administration.
It's a gift to the United States, not Trump. Try harder next time.

How long does it take to make a plane?

Your kids couldn't make it in anyway. It's not woke and they don't put tampons in the bathrooms.

Why did you link me to this?

Syria's oil and gas are part of Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa's strategic pitch to try to get face time with U.S. President Donald Trump during his trip to the Middle East, according to several sources familiar with the push to woo Washington.
quote:
To be clear, a Trump-Sharaa meeting during the U.S. president's visit to the region is widely seen as unlikely, given Trump's packed schedule, his priorities and lack of consensus within Trump's team on how to tackle Syria. A source familiar with ongoing efforts said a high-level Syria-U.S. meeting was set to take place in the region during the week of Trump's visit, but that it would not be between Trump and Sharaa.

I, for one, am impressed by his resilience if not his brains. He gets owned daily, yet comes back for more. Keep on keeping on, Wiley Coyote. One day you'll get that roadrunner!

So Biden was negotiating for a just to be given to the Trump library?
If it had been given to Biden then yes it would have ended up in Biden’s Library
In case you don’t know presidential gifts become part of the national archives

It was linked to show you that trump is negotiating for himself, not the US. Gift to the US? When do you get to use it?

Yeah, we know that everything you hold everyone accountable for, doesn't apply to trump. Sham.

There are about five posters right now that bring the IQ of the board down to well below the average democrat voter. This sociopath is one of them. Ignore it and it will go away. It need attention to feed its disorder.

Just because someone is on my side of the fence doesn't mean I'm automatically going to think every argument they field is intelligent or logical.

Did Trump negotiate/close a deal or receive a gift?
What is saying that both didn't happen?
Started as negotiations under Biden regime, and continued under Trump administration, Qatar then offers as a gift, certainly plausible.

Does it actually hurt to be as dumb as you? I hope so.
