3/ Some of wealthiest biz owners in DC, NYC, Philly were hotel owners. Without Emoluments Clause POTUS would have been enticing.
@ByronYork -
4/ Otherwise a POTUS w financial probs could just partner with a hotelier and control foreign visitors choices.
@ByronYork -
5/ A POTUS renting a hotel from the US Govt & demanding payment from foreigners is EXACTLY what Emoluments Clause was meant for.

Were you okay with HRC's pay for play or did you view that as corruption?
-
It was corruption. Though nobody in the media agreed.
-
but it was, you're right, and media let it pass. But you also agree Trump's pay-for-play is corrupt, right?
