      1. The emoluments problem is real but we have to think about it politically rather than just legally. https://thinkprogress.org/trump-poised-to-violate-constitution-his-first-day-in-office-george-w-bushs-ethics-lawyer-says-73e14789a935#.pdyy6sria …

      2. Impeachment is a political process, not a legal one. So Trump can do any number of impeachable offences without triggering Congress.

      3. Trump is already doing things that, on the face of it, merit impeachment investigation -- business dealings during transition.

      4.But again, this is a political rather than legal matter. Question is whether Trump's self-enrichment can be used against him politically?

      5. Trump's corruption didn't hurt him because his whole argument was "I'm a rich crook so I know how to fix the crooked system."

          it didn't hurt him because they don't care. He hates POC, so they love him.

          and now he's just replacing "fix" with "abuse even more".

          His version became the official version bc he a) withheld his #taxes and b) used a carousel 🎠 of flimsy excuses for press to chase

          His corruption didn't hurt him because Republicans wanted to vote against the Democratic candidate for President, end of story.

          but he never apologized for being a crook. So why anyone would think he would stop is beyond me.

          Fair point, but Trump’s corruption wasn't seen as bigly evil & globally yuge as the Clinton Foundation, either. @JoyceCarolOates
