Emoluments clause? Shmoluments clause.
Sure.
Not to be an apologist for the dems, but it is genuinely funny that they made Carter give up his peanut farm and Trump is just straight pumping his crypto holdings and taking bribes from foreign countries, fifa and investment firms and nobody with any enforcement capacity gives a fuck
The people with enforcement capacity all either work for the president or they work for the courts and therefore rely on the president's people to carry out any court orders. It's wild that it took this long for the cracks in our system to show, really.
Eh, supposedly, FDR practically ruled like a God-king of America back in those days. They certainly added the 22nd amendment to stop "populism" and curb working class power, but he did genuinely have an insane level of control over the government that as far as I am aware, even Trump doesn't have. One of the users here commented how Trump is actually a lot of FDR (but right-liberal instead of left-liberal).
They don't give a fuck because it would force them to be accountable. Either also find themselves guilty, or stop taking bribes. Same reason why their "impeachment" threater with Trump is lame AF. They could have really gotten him on selling arms to the terrorist funding Saudis, but the Dems are guity of it too.
