A top House Democrat has a warning for foreign officials who spend money at properties owned by President Donald Trump: Stop, because your government is"facilitating" his ability to violate the U.S. Constitution.
Ranking member of the House Foreign Relations Committee, Rep. Representative Eliot Engel , who is a leading candidate to take over the panel, poses for a portrait in his office on Capitol Hill November 15, 2018, in Washington, DC., a provision of the constitution that states no sitting U.S. president"shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept" gifts or benefits from foreign governments.
"There are serious concerns that these payments to hotels, businesses, condominiums, or other Trump-owned properties by foreign governments are in violation of the Constitution," Engel added in his memo. The release of Engel's memo telling staffers to warn foreign officials against patronizing Trump businesses came at nearly the same time the president visited the Shell Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex in Monaco, Pennsylvania, and gave a speech, where he touched on the same topic.
