Funny haircut.
Insists it’s good hair.
Weird dress sense.
Chubby.
ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED he’s gorgeous
Insists on being absolutely the best at everything ever in history.
Hasn’t a clue
Barely speaks Enlgish
Likes what China did centuries ago
Wants closer ties to Russia

Hmmm.

Anyone checked to see if there’s a little korean guy hiding in an orange jumpsuit pretending to be POTUS?

He still might, because he lusts after the idea of making everyone call him “Beloved Leader”.

2. Kellly Anne Con-way reminds me of the alien leader in Mars Attacks. Same strong jaw….

Or have financial links with foreign entities. And he has said that he has them all over the globe.

Slam dunk: you lose.

“An emolument is a salary.”

No it isn’t.

emolument
??m?lj?m(?)nt,??m?lj?m(?)nt/
noun

noun: emolument; plural noun: emoluments

a salary, fee, or profit from employment or office.

An emolument is a salary.

It makes sense – you cannot serve two masters.

So you cannot be President and also get paid to be Canada’s ambassador (for example).

There is nothing in the constitution about foreign entanglements.

Slam dunk: you lose.

As to the rest of your comment – you must be confusing me with someone else.

I don’t remember saying anything about Hillary and her connections to Wall Street.

Also – Trump isn’t my guy.

I voted libertarian – remember?

He’s also corrupt, but as far as that cracpot knows, everyone is, without exception.

Except Trump (unless he’s fine with a corrupt president).

He’s simply morally corrupt, that’s all.

According to the constitution, you cannot have any fiscal entanglements with foreign entities if you’re the president.

Drumpf has admitted these exist all across the world.

Slam dunk: you lose.

And when it comes to Hilary, you were one of the most spittle-flecked screamers of how bad she was for her connections to Wall Street.

Seems if she’d become POTUS you would have let her own a major bank.

Of course, if she HAD become POTUS, Drumpf would not,and you’d be APOPLECTIC about corruption and how her foundation was clearly corruption and she should do as every single other president in all of the USA’s history has done, and divest their business, sell it off and have the cash invested in a blind trust.

Because it’s only fine when YOUR guy does it.

Because you are a crackpot.
