    Of course Trump's business are going to continue doing what they do while he's president.

    That's not emoluments. Even if they raise prices.

    What would be emoluments is if some unusual activity goes on to hide some sort of bribe; a bribe to effect some sort of favorable policy. Or if he profited off sales from the white house gift shop.

    And in further news, today the head of the Office of Government Ethics resigned, saying, and I'm paraphrasing here, "this administration has no interest in ethics".

    So no progress in swamp draining in the last 51 weeks? Someone isn't keeping their promises...

    I know who isn't President, but I wonder if you realize that the candidate you claim to have wanted also isn't President.


    Ooooh wait....the guy actually wanted to be President, defend at the drop of a hat and constantly sing the praises of won.




    (see what I did there?)

    Yes. My candidate didn’t win. I’m not throwing a hissy fit over it. Subtle difference? (Not at all).
