Title: Euro's in my pocket...

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by T And T Garage on 08/27/19 at 20:52:50 Emoluments - Schemoluments..... William Barr Books $30,000 Party At Trump Hotel: Report U.S. Attorney General William Barr has reportedly booked President Donald Trump’s hotel in Washington, D.C., for a winter holiday party that a Washington Post report says will likely bring the hotel more than $30,000 in revenue. The Post said Tuesday that it obtained a copy of the contract Barr signed for a private 200-person “Family Holiday Party” at the Trump International Hotel’s Presidential Ballroom on Dec. 8. The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A department official told the Post that Barr is paying for the party himself and only chose the Trump hotel after finding out other venues were booked. According to the newspaper, its copy of Barr’s contract requires a minimum of $100 per person for food and drink before an additional 35% for taxes and tip, and calls for the attorney general to pay at least $31,500 even if the event gets canceled. “He’s the owner of the thing …. It at least creates the appearance of corruption,” former Office of Government Ethics Director Walter Shaub previously told HuffPost. In announcing the possibility of his Doral resort as the next G-7 site, Trump said, “I’m not going to make any money.” But as previously reported by HuffPost, Trump directly receives any money spent on his properties [ch8213] including hotels and golf courses [ch8213] because he is the sole beneficiary of a trust that owns his family business, the Trump Organization. The president’s many properties frequently host lobbyists trying to influence his policies, foreign governments and politicians, opening Trump to conflicts of interest. The Justice Department is currently defending the president’s Washington hotel against a lawsuit filed by nearly 200 members of Congress accusing Trump of violating the Constitution’s emoluments clause [ch8213] a provision to prevent corruption [ch8213] by continuing to profit from his businesses. Though the Justice Department told the Post that Barr did not book the party out of loyalty to the president, the top U.S. law enforcement official’s independence from Trump has been questioned before. Barr was criticized earlier this year for making misleading remarks about then-special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 election, echoing the false “no collusion” narrative that Trump has been repeating for years. Shaub, who has been a vocal critic of Trump’s ethics decisions, told the Post that, although Barr’s decision to book a party at Trump’s hotel does not violate the rules, the attorney general “keeps sending signals that his loyalty is to a politician and not to the country.” |

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by WebsterMark on 08/28/19 at 04:17:13 Barr's paying for this himself. This is no different than somebody working at a bakery buying his daughter's wedding cake from his boss. Your desperation at trying to turn this into something is pathetic yet funny! You guys crack me up! Seriously, keep it up. Regarding Doral and the G7 next year, I don't give a $hit and my guess is most others won't either. I've not been there but I hear its magnificent. I think it's great way for all the attendees to realize they are beholden to Donald J Trump. They are all battling for second place. The US and Trump are the Kings, the rest can kiss the Ring if they're lucky enough to have it extended to them. Its a home court advantage. |

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by WebsterMark on 08/28/19 at 11:59:37 To be fair, no one from Obama's administration could have purchased goods or services from Obama because..... he never actually did anything in the private sector beforehand!.... But setting that aside, if that would have happened, why would I care? I don't care Obama has capitalized on his Presidency and made himself wealthy afterwards. My point about the house purchase was the hypocrisy and obvious admission he doesn't believe global warming is of any real significance. Back to Barr; what's the difference in what he's doing and someone who works at a Ford car dealer buying a Ford from that same dealer? None that I can see. This is a manufactured 'fake news' controversy that isn't one. Try again snowflakes. I don't care about using the Doral property because I believe it gives Trump a leg up. |

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by Serowbot on 08/28/19 at 14:03:31 Accepting money for access and influence from foreign leaders,... sounds very much like treason to me. Isn't that the one thing you said you wouldn't tolerate from Trump? ...or are you going to use the "no declared war" cop-out? (Which would allow any treasonous behavior after WWII by technicality). |

Successful life is about dealing fairly with slippery slopes. You could take that slippery slope and claim Obama ran for President knowing that was his only path to the magnificent wealth he long sought after and ultimately has obtained. I wouldn't make that claim and I don't make the claim Ttump's desire to hold the G7 at Doral is so he could make a few dollars. It would not surprise me to learn in long run, Trump's Presidency has cost him current and future earnings. Some of his golf properties have lost professional events because spineless organizers caved to crybaby snowflakes. |

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 08/29/19 at 06:09:57 Trump gave up a GRAND lifestyle to try to save America. If anyone would bother to watch the early 80s video of Oprah interviewing him, she asked him if he wanted to be president. He said No, I don't, but I would if I ever saw the future of America threatened , oh, I paraphrase... And,gosh, what a great guy he was, while he was handing money to Hillary and other lefties. And then Just like That Trump was uncouth, white nationalist, racist, and it all happened EXACTLY when he stopped supporting her.. And he's Such a self serving prick that he doesn't even keep his own paycheck... What a greedy POS!! |

Title: Re: Euro's in my pocket... Post by T And T Garage on 08/29/19 at 07:43:13 Again... read "If Obama Had Done It"... You guys are hilarious. Hey, I wonder - when the democrats take back the white house in 2020, you gonna be OK with them profiting off the presidency? You gonna be OK with them employing their entire family? You gonna be OK with them calling in to CNN? You gonna be OK with them having closed door meetings with dictators? Yeah.... hypocrisy 101 boys. You're doing great! |
