“We just won our Emoluments Clause appeal against President Trump in the 2d Circuit on behalf of hotels, restaurants, and restaurant workers injured by Trump’s unconstitutional and corrupt acceptance of foreign and domestic business,” tweeted Laurence Tribe, a Harvard Law professor who helped bring the case to court. “THIS IS HUGE!!!”

The court didn’t rule on the merits of the case but found the plaintiffs had alleged sufficient facts to allow the suit to move forward.
”The complaint sufficiently alleges that plaintiffs compete directly with Trump establishments and that the president’s allegedly illegal acts favor plaintiffs’ competitors,” the appeals court ruled.
A lower-court judge had in December 2017 dismissed the case initially brought by a government-ethics group.
Trump has argued that he turned over management of his business to his children and set up a trust to hold his business assets, but the appeals court found that he still maintained sole ownership and gets regular updates on those businesses.
The president can also draw distributions from the trust at any time, the court found.
The ruling found that the Restaurant Opportunities Centers United had plausibly claimed the president’s ownership of hospitality businesses gives his hotels and restaurants an unfair advantage for government patrons who might seek favorable actions from the executive branch he oversees.
The court dismissed Trump’s claims that the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to bring the suit, and ruled that the issue should be decided by the courts and not Congress

For 3 fucking years it’s been this is huge he’s going down oh my god this is it. I give him 2 years tops. Three years later he’s telling everybody they won’t do shit to him and he’s right. This don’t mean shit
Until I see CNN, Newsweek, ABC, NBC,CBS links I'm not getting excited, but this does smell like Karma done finally got her justice due on this motherfucker!
Nothing ain't happening until....
The house gets Tax Returns, plus some of his people to testify without him obstructing them & SDNY releasing some info on his sealed indictment.
OR
After he loses election, info is great & all, but....

Don't do that bro', EB is one of the prolific posters of the board and earns his right to contribute how he feels or what he wants every time he drops some booty pics and vids on the board.
..but you on the other hand
have a grand total of 30 reply posts and no threads...so you need to stfu!
Country is fucked. It's 2019 and folks still using Rawstory. 
Site has made a killing with 'this is huge' and 'sky is falling' clickbait bullshit. Told folks in 2015 stick with shit like Reuters but that would mean a 80 percent drop in Trump shit.

Shit, I've always said he's not personally going down, at least not while in office....but I want as much shit on him to dirty him up as possible. This, unless a higher court reverses it, will help a lot in that endeavour. It's already known that he is profiting personally/directly from foreign governments, but if this case actually gets to court and all of the paperwork and examples of it that we don't even know about yet come out....all good
Hey asshole if you don’t like my posts don’t come into My post just a simple as that
Yes I am the same thing goes for you what I told the other foolCountry is fucked. It's 2019 and folks still using Rawstory.
And who’s fault is all of that...
White people and the assholes that don’t vote their interest.
You keep saying this but that site has been accurate.Country is fucked. It's 2019 and folks still using Rawstory.
If republicans weren’t so corrupt Trump would have been taken down 2 years ago.
..but you on the other hand
...
It's all comedy to me. Raw story probably got folks in therapy though.
This all day. Call me when this dude has been taken out by one of his own supporters or is in handcuffs. Other than that, it's all noise.
Not just Obama but the fact we have now become their neighbors and we can shop in the same stores and our children can attend their schools at a greater percentage. Obama was the culmination of the progression of the Black middle class.
I agree with your statement
