WASHINGTON TIMES- A federal judge in New York dismissed one of the lawsuits against President Trump’s business dealings, ruling Thursday that a watchdog group didn’t have standing to challenge whether the president’s continued connection to his hotel chain violates the Constitution’s emoluments clause.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington had sued, saying that the president was benefiting from foreign government cash when employees of those governments held events or stayed at Trump hotels. The emoluments clause prevents the president from accepting a gift from another government without the consent of Congress.
But Judge George B. Daniels, sitting in the Southern District of New York, said the group wasn’t able to bring the action.
“Plaintiffs have failed to properly allege that defendant’s actions caused plaintiffs competitive injury and that such an injury is redressable by this court,” he wrote. READ MORE
Wow, an uncle bill appointee
People who completely missed Clinton and Obama felonies, Emoluments violation are not fit to question any conflicts of interest.
I wonder whether the Judge awarded costs to the defendent?
They knew very well they didn’t have a legal case. These people trying to sue Trump keep on hoping for a totally corrupt judge. The left’s plan is the hope for corruption.
Come to think of it that is always their plan.
