'Absolutely impeachable' for Trump to direct 'hundreds of thousands' of dollars to his business, RepRaskin says

"He can't be taking that money," the representative asserted. He added:"it's absolutely impeachable for the president to be violating the emoluments clauses."

Constitutional legal scholar Laurence Tribe, a professor at Harvard University, slammed Trump over both issues in a series of tweets last week. He, like Raskin, pointed out that these were clear violations of the Constitution's emoluments clauses. President Donald Trump steps off Air Force One upon arrival at Morristown Municipal Airport in Morristown, New Jersey on August 2that officials from at least 22 foreign governments have spent money at Trump Organization properties since he took office in 2017. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Turkey, the Philippines and many other nations have all reportedly booked rooms or hosted events at various properties owned by the president since his election.

RepRaskin nothing is impeachable. You know who can 'impeach' Trump? Brutus & Cassius.

RepRaskin RepRaskin President Trump has collected no salary since he was elected. Have you collected your salary? Stop the smear campaign.

RepRaskin How about forcing scientists to write a propaganda statement. NOAA

RepRaskin Oh great Another season of the 'I' word. About as exciting as winter.

RepRaskin Let's hope his popularity is receding as much as his hairline.

RepRaskin The ONE and ONLY reason that Nadler and the other Democrats want to impeach Trump, is because he won the 2016 presidential election.

RepRaskin Then get on with it!

RepRaskin That’s stealing!

RepRaskin Good luck with that. Especially with the spineless senatemajldr and the rest of the worthless GOP

RepRaskin Do something

RepRaskin Then do it.

RepRaskin It’s only hundreds of thousands of dollars. That shouldn’t count against a billionaire. He doesn’t need it. He just figures it’s pocket change and no one really cares.

DebraMessing RepRaskin What are we going to do when the Supreme Court decides that for the security of the country Trump will remain president even though he’s lost the general election and the electoral college can’t be determined due to election controversy? msnbc NicolleDWallace johnlegend

DebraMessing RepRaskin Yeah, yeah yeah Blah blah blah. We ALL KNOW he's corrupt. We all know he should be impeached. But you let him get away with it. You collude with him. You condone his actions by standing idly by. WHY?

RepRaskin Then do it! What is everyone waiting for!? impeachnow

RepRaskin Still waiting for actual proof rather than speculation. Talk is cheap. Call me ol’ School.

RepRaskin Hundreds of millions is more accurate...and he isn't done robbing us yet.

RepRaskin Were you blind and deaf when Clinton, Obama, JFK, Johnson and Carter were in the WH? More crime and moral offenses that were not only kept hid but condoned by the liberal press. Time to void 'freedom of the press' from the First Amendment. Your obsession with Trump is a disease

RepRaskin Got a great point, similar to the one you had with Russia. What ever happened to that collusion with Russia anyways? Nothing huh, what do you think will happen with this one?

RepRaskin The US taxpayer is paying for Trump's whole family to profit off the Presidency. This is why we don't have new roads, new bridges, subways, trains, airports, new water and sewer lines and wastewater treatment systems.

RepRaskin he only cares about the $$$ going into his businesses not about the ordinary Joe, or the tax payer

RepRaskin Put money in thy purse. (Shakespeare)

RepRaskin He's been doing it since he was sworn in, you're a little late. ImpeachTrumpNow

RepRaskin trump has likely committed a number of impeachable offenses, yet there he is still in the WH (or golf course) getting away w/it all. RepJerryNadler SpeakerPelosi Things are so incredibly insane that I fear many won’t vote at all in 2020. And, sadly, that will keep him there.

RepRaskin They still wont do it...🤬🙄

RepRaskin Of all the things he’s done... THIS IS WHAT YOU CONSIDER IMPEACHING HIM FOR?! REALLY?!
