Supreme Court Throws Out Trump Lawsuits

The Supreme Court on Monday brought an end to lawsuits over whether Donald Trump illegally profited off his presidency.

The justices threw out lower court rulings as well as Trump’s challenge to them and directed appeals courts in New York and Richmond, Virginia, to dismiss the suits as moot now that Trump is no longer in office.

The lawsuits claimed Trump violated the Constitution’s emoluments clause by accepting payments from foreign and domestic officials who stayed at the Trump International Hotel and patronized other businesses owned by the former president and his family.

The cases involved suits filed by Maryland and the District of Columbia, as well as high-end restaurants and hotels in New York and Washington that claimed they “found themselves in the unenviable position of having to compete with businesses owned by the President of the United States.”

The suits sought financial records showing how much state and foreign governments have paid the Trump Organization to stay and eat at Trump-owned properties.

  • Watch as they throw out the election fraud cases as moot... ruling that Pres. Biden has been inaugurated, and his electoral vote confirmed by the states and Congress as our President.

  • Yes, and this is the same legal stance that means the demwits in the senate can't have an impeachment trial.  Roberts could stop all this right now by just telling them that it would be unconstitutional for him to preside over such a trial.  So the issue of a senate trial for a former president, now a civilian is a moot point.  Does Roberts have the testicles for making such a statement?
