What’s the conflict of interest?

Its just a hotel. Its not like Trump is going to run his company after Jan. 20.

Yeah. Let’s impeach him before he ever takes office. Probably his d.c. hotel was built by slaves. Or something.

Total and absolute madness. The “feelings” of embassy foreigners are something outside of Trump’s control. WAPO is beyond idiotic.

I actually think better safe than sorry. The hotel will have plenty of American tourists to fill it up while he’s in office—foreign states should be turned away.

SO!! That’s what DJT has been doing all weekend at the Country Club. He’s been calling heads of state all over the world and warning them that when they come to DC they had better stay at the Trump Hotel. Or Else!! Thank goodness we have such a diligent and objective watchdog press.

Think about how the Clinton Foundation was used and how the press was entirely silent on that issue? Amazing

0bama gives $5 BILLION to the enemy, thereby funding their attacks against us... and it wasn’t impeachable.

Trump owning a hotel in the same city as the White Hut is somehow an impeachable offense??

someone needs to start dropping roofies into the martini glasses at the old ebbit so the congress critters don’t return from lunch

By the time he leaves office he will be fully retired. He will not go back to his business, so he will be transferring all ownership now to his children.

And he’s warned that if they don’t stay in the most expensive suites, he’s withholding chocolate on the pillow!
