Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) went after former President Trump on Friday, demanding in a letter that he return about $7.8 million Trump’s companies received from foreign governments while he was in office.
House Oversight and Accountability Committee Democrats first made the allegation in a report last week, claiming Trump’s companies accepted money from foreign entities in 20 countries and alleging the payments violate the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution.
“Your acceptance of foreign emoluments while in office was a stunning violation of the U.S. Constitution — and a profound betrayal of the interests of the United States and the trust of the American people,” Raskin wrote.
A majority of the payments, about $5.6 million, came from China and went to Trump’s hotels in Washington and Las Vegas, as well as Trump Tower in New York, the report found.
you kidding? after her next case, she’ll likely get 10-15x that!
My point was that Trump never pays his bills. She can win a billion dollars, but she would likely never see it because Trump weasels his way out of paying anything he owes.
The way trump insults her every time, she’ll be looking for infinite damages soon.
