Re: foreign emoluments-

doesn’t the Constitution say that anyone taking them (emoluments) is disqualified from holding (any) office?

[grey_whiskers]

Article I, Section 9, Paragraph 8:

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
