Trump Failing to Track Foreign Cash at His Hotels

4. At this point, it's kinda immaterial

Three reasons:

One: there's no good way to know if the money is coming from a foreign government, in a lot of cases. I remember going on TDY in the Army quite a few times...this was the bad old days before government credit cards (and as a sergeant who didn't go TDY that much I wouldn't have received one anyway) but I always received a cash advance to cover hotel rooms...a foreign government could do the same thing. He gets foreign tourists he doesn't have to return profits from, how are we to know those "tourists" were really GRU officers here to bug the Old Executive Office Building?

Two: the amount in profit he could be making from foreign governments is far exceeded by the profits he's making renting golf carts and hotel rooms and providing meals to the Secret Service when he goes golfing Every Fucking Week.

And Three: four months into his maladministration he's racked up impeachable offenses that make his Emoluments Clause problems look like fishing without a license.
