exploiting the presidency for his personal profit,

Where's their editorial board denunciation of using the State Department for personal profit, i.e. Hillary?

>>If Donald Trump thinks there’s nothing wrong with exploiting the presidency for his personal profit, he should read the Constitution.

<<

To the dicks on the nyslimes board:

Who says President Trump is doing anything of the kind? He is already richer than God and doesn’t need any more wealth.

You are REALLY late worrying about this - where were you 1993-2001 and 2009-2017?? THAT is when the Presidency was up for sale or rent!

***WARNING***

NYT = Not Yielding to Truth

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

What good does it do to post this b/s from a known lying Leftist outlet other than demoralize the readers? If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a relatively reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization.

I understand that some posts of certain published lies can help in ferreting out the truth and can be very helpful. But much of the stream of almost endless Leftist media’s published lies posted on FR often has no redeeming value, gets people pissed off and possibly demoralized, and seems sometimes to even strengthen the lie.

stepping away from the day-to-day management of the Trump Organization even as he retains his ownership in it

So how exactly is this different than a blind trust?

I don't need to educate FReepers on this. But this is Classic of all media. Lead with a false premise and then make up the rest of the story as you go along. The trick is that Republicans are inclined to argue and debate the validity of the each ridiculous fabricated detail instead of dismissing the premise as ludicrous and calling the author by name for not being smarter than a 3rd grader.

Trump made a spectacle out of divorcing himself from his own enterprise during his presidency. I haven't seen any commercials or adds of Trump promoting his personal interests.

Trump is unusual in that he is NOT becoming wealthy by means of his political career. He was wealthy before running for office. He is wealthy in office. He will be wealthy after he leaves office.

By contrast, consider the Clintons and how they became wealthy...or any number of other politicians who did not come into politics wealthy, but left very wealthy.

How can anybody take the NYT seriously?

Even if the case is thrown out on those grounds, Mr. Trump is still a walking emoluments-clause violation.

So, their theme is "let's hate Trump" no matter what happens.

New York Times is upset Trump is rich.

And the emoluments clause only prohibits a federal official from receiving anything of value from a foreign state.

Which Trump hasn’t violated.

the NYSlimes continues to live up to its name

anti-Trump
also
anti-Christian
anti-Jewish
anti-American

about all the paper is good for is its crossword puzzles and, I am told, sometimes (not always) its book and theatre reviews are ok. The paper should be shut down. And replaced with an entertainment-oriented webpage.

But giving Russia 20% of our uranium in exchange for $145 million to the Clintoons foundation is peachy keen?

So the Left does believe in the U. S. Constitution after all?

Then we can expect Obama’s real birth certificate and full gamete of personal papers to be made available forthwith?

Bill Clinton and his greedy wife were the people who milked government jobs for fun and profit. And the New York Times? They look away..., from the graft from the rape, from the bulling of young women. They knew about John Edwards - and covered for him too...

Scum.

President Trump doesn’t even accept a salary - donates it to charity. I suspect the staff at the New York Times would be more comfortable with Harvey Weinstein and his BS version of ‘liberal values’ than they would ever be with the man WE THE PEOPLE elected to be our President.

Eff the New York Times lemmings...

it’s hard to see how the American people can ever be confident that Mr. Trump, who has spent a lifetime as a money-obsessed deal maker, is acting in the nation’s best interest

Well it's also hard to see how politicians who have spent a lifetime mysteriously accumulating millions of dollars and putting their relatives in cushy positions, are acting in the nation's best interest. Or that reporters who expose their personal bias in reporting are acting in the nation's best interest. But the thing about Trump is, he's not 30, he's in his seventies, and he has all the money he needs.
