The complaint opens uncharted legal territory. No state has accused a president of violating the emoluments clauses of the Constitution. One of those clauses bans federal officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments. A second prohibits the president from accepting economic benefits from the federal or state governments, other than his salary.

what is there to address. 30 years go prison labor worked in the Arkansas Governors mansion.
It was practiced in Arkansas until -- I don't know, do they still do it ? Did Clintons predessor or successor have prison labor ? I don't know
30 years ago Donald Trump (who actually this thread is named after) stiffed sub contractors and swindled contractors in Atlantic City.
Less than a year ago Donald Trump payed out $25M in a settlement of a fraud charge for targeting veterans in a fake college scam.
Some things change with time
Some don't

Huddie Ledbetter was pardoned due to working the governors mansion while a prisoner in Angola Prison.
Pretty sure it was a common practice in the South. Might even still be i places.
One of the Rockefeller brothers was Governor of Arkansas. Lord know, they didn't need slave labor.
History will tell you how the Rockefeller family helped fund civil rights movements of the 50's and 60's.
A little context would be in order

So i'm supposed to shake my fists about stiffing a contractor for doing a bad job, but I'm suppose to not care about using slave labor.
Just keeping track.
It does the soul good watching you embrace the cause of Prison Reform.
Will you be donating money for legal defense or spend time counseling ?
Certain there are a number of Gay Black inmates -- perhaps you and AA can buddy up

I embrace, donate to, and volunteer for candidates who support individual liberty.
Doesn't get more individual liberty than prison rights and reforms.
Please keep us all posted

I recognize that individual liberty means very little to you and others.
I just think that life and pursuit of happiness share equal billing with liberty.
I'm sure you agree

I also think you and your buddies should move on from the Clintons.
They are no more relevant to today's political landscape than Barbara Streisand or Ted Nugent.
Or Mitt Romney or John Kerry
for that matter

no reason to do this other than spite
****ing stupid to not try to better relations instead we are leaving a vacuum for the Chinese to come in and get even more influence on the island 90 miles off our border for no reason than hating the black man that made fun of ya at a corespondents dinner

Can you imagine anything more sickening than serving the insane delusions of an incompetent, narcissistic dictator wannabe?
It wouldn't be so bad if he actually had any skills other than empty self-promotion.

Bernie Sanders made over $1M last year selling books attacking capitalism
Ryan Howard made 25 million dollars to play baseball and didn't really play baseball

Not attacking capitalism, but discussing ways to makes our version more fair.

In case you were wondering why John McCain was frequently nothing more than "very disappointed" and "deeply concerned" by Trump's actions.
