...We're founded and bound together by our Constitution: Seven Articles, and Twenty-seven Amendments. This is our contract with each other.

Article One, Section 9, the 'Emoluments Clause' states our president cannot have dual loyalties or 'masters'. He cannot use the office to enrich himself. But we as United States citizens looked the other way as he was sworn in, on a Bible no less, while blatantly violating our Constitution, plus cheapening the Bible. He's much more of a criminal than anyone crossing our borders without a piece of paper, trying to escape death or worse.

He hauled in his co-conspirators and entire family 'clan' to help share in plundering the "spoils of office." They are all traitors, maybe not by dictionary definition, but in the true sense of the word, giving away the U.S. to China, for example, in exchange for their own benefit. Is the "Art of the Deal" actually "How to Sell Out?

The Emoluments Clause, more 'original' and basic than the Second Amendment because it came first, is ignored, while the AR-15 crowd hides whimpering and growling under their beds, afraid to confront Trump. (AR-15 worse than MS-13.)...
