Nope, that's something you just pulled from your ass to defend your mistake. There's no 'and also charging higher than the usual room rent to increase the profit margin' part.Cassandros wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 12:08 am/chuckle.AnalHamster wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2019 7:05 amThe foreign emoluments clause - the only one you were aware existed presumably - applies when he directs foreign business to his hotels, the domestic clause applies when he directs federal revenue to his hotels.

“No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
So... help me out here. How does, 'stay at my place on the other side of the island' violate this clause exactly?
Certainly you are not actually suggesting that paying for a hotel room is the same as accepting gifts from foreign nationals...
I am also unsure of any State, or the US as a whole, giving him emoluments above the salary.
So, again, help me out here. Cause you are not making your stance very clear.
Carrying water for Spudoc, that's nice of you.
Unfortunately, unless there is evidence that the fees these people are paying are somehow higher than the room fee and the excess is funneling to Trump- you really don't have much of a leg to stand on here. But keep hoping...
Keep hoping.
They're working toward growing transplantable organs, which would save tens of thousands of lives every year. They aren't just doing it to see if they can.Cassandros wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 12:10 amFuck that, pig-human hybrids is wrong.
In my humble opinion scientist need to start asking 'should we' and not just 'can we'.
Dude, he held up a chart he had doctored with a Sharpie! You don't think people are going to make fun of that?
The hurricane is currently tearing apart the Carolinas and the only thing Trump is concerned about is that there was a 1/100,000% chance that the extreme south/east corner of Alabama might have gotten an afternoon rain shower.
It got Huckabee a job at Faux!
How funny would it have been if a million people evacuated their homes and fled southern Alabama because Trump sent out that Tweet.FSchmertz wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 11:15 pmIt got Huckabee a job at Faux!
Some people just need to suck up to the boss, no matter what the boss asks of them. It takes courage to tell the boss "no, I can't do that" and risk your cushy job.
P.S. Some here are also apparently suck ups. They can't see why the "Leader of the Free World" lowering himself to doctoring and publicly presenting the photo from the Office of the President for pathetic reasons (his apparently fragile ego) doesn't deserve their efforts to excuse it, and just makes them also appear foolish and pathetic.
The holy fuck here is Trump altering a map to try to prove something.
A someone who's gone thru a good number of hurricanes, and even a couple of hurricane eyes, I know they can take mysterious last-minute changes in course. Yea, there were projections that Dorian was going up through the Palm Beach area, then head northwest up under/through Orlando, then possibly as a very weakened storm into Alabama. That was a possibility, just a very improbable one. It wouldn't have been a hurricane or even a tropical storm, just fragments of a storm cell, had it gone that far.
I agree. He really should let this one go. Even if it was technically true who gives a fuck? This is one of those times where punching back, usually something his fans like, just doesnt do him any good.QillerDaemon wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 1:29 amA someone who's gone thru a good number of hurricanes, and even a couple of hurricane eyes, I know they can take mysterious last-minute changes in course.

We who lived in Orlando during 2004 will "fondly" remember Charley. It was supposed to tear the fuck out of Tampa. And every projection offered just that. So half of Tampa emptied out into Orlando, since that was the safe move. But before it went north, it took a strange right turn inland, then another strangle left turn straight north into and across Orlando and thru the state. And left Tampa basically unscathed. That wasn't supposed to happen! Then we had to worry about three more hurricanes after that.![]()
There are really times that Trump just Needs To Shut The Fuck Up.
