i said she's good looking, that has nothing to do with having class. then you attack my family. wtf?

you seem to have a lot of mental issues. i hope you get help soon. you know there's places that can help you with your mental issues, some are free too, no cost. i suggest you seek them out otherwise your life will continue to be a living hell hole.

i actually have pity and feel sorry for you because now i know your mentally ill. sorry for calling you names in my previous post. i didn't realize you're not well mentally. please seriously consider getting mental help asap. it'll improve you life a great deal. best of luck to you.

you're mentally ill if you think you're in the right to attack a former first lady based on her appearance, but YOUR personal family is off limits.

in fact, that defines every Trump voter. It's fine if he talks about grabbing women by the pussy, but not if it's YOUR wife or YOUR daughter. other women don't matter though.

I would like to talk more about Melania.

You guys think he and she are still doing it? Is he too old? Right after he took over, I remember some discussion about how she had to remain in NYC while his job took him elsewhere, cause that's where the youngest child was in school. I never got that, I assume the school is a very special one, but aren't there similar schools in Washington or Florida? Could that be her way of getting some in NYC while he is elsewhere? Imagine he has spycams on her, but she has her own Secret Service guys assigned to her, no? One of them may know how to work around spycams.

We never discuss the important issues anymore.
That's what Viagra is for and who knows Trump maybe tearing up the interns like Slick Willie!

it's not in an Amendment. It's Article I, Section 9, Clause 8

and it's why all previous presidents have divested from their businesses, including Jimmy Carter's peanut farm
That a very liberal interpretation of the clause. So nobody who owns a business can run for president without giving it up does that make sense lol? It's unAmerican in the purest of sense! And many Presidents of past had plantations and where established men of agriculture before being president without giving up the farm.

From Wikipedia:

The Title of Nobility Clause is a provision in Article I, Section 9, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution,[1] that prohibits the federal government from granting titles of nobility, and restricts members of the government from receiving gifts, emoluments, offices or titles from foreign states without the consent of the United States Congress. Also known as the Emoluments Clause, it was designed to shield the republican character of the United States against so-called "corrupting foreign influences". This shield is reinforced by the corresponding prohibition on state titles of nobility in Article I, Section 10, and more generally by the Republican Guarantee Clause in Article IV, Section 4.[2]

I don't see how this clause requires Trump to divest his business. However, I do think it's prudent for people in power to put their assets in a blind trust to prevent the appearance of impropriety. That puts Trump in a really tough spot because "Trump" IS the brand. That's why they slap in on any hotel or resort because it adds value to the property. (I have no idea why, but apparently it does). So I'm not sure exactly how Trump does that. What he's done in handing off management of his assets to his kids I suppose is a decent solution under the circumstances, as long as they keep a Chinese wall up and do not communicate what they're doing back and forth to avoid conflicts of interest.

The concept in the U.S.A. was that the president would come from the people, serve his/her term, then return to the people. The idea that you have to give up your business to be president is perverse to our form of government (i.e. you aren't being made a monarch or diety or whatever, you are still just a citizen). Its been required, though, that they not run their business while in office to avoid inevitable conflict of interest.

Barron is 11 so you may be right.

And if you think a president should not gain from using their name after their presidency needs to ask about all these books and speeches every former president has done for decades. Obama got $400k to speak to a bank??? for Christ's sake.
