Former Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean said President Trump is "running a criminal enterprise" out of the White House.
During a segment an MSNBC host said Trump is "constantly vacationing to promote his own properties."
"The promotion is extraordinary. There hasn't been a president in my lifetime that's done anything like this," Dean said in response.
"In the beginning, the constitutional business about the emoluments clause, which is you're not supposed to take foreign money to influence your policy, it didn't bother me, I thought it was a far-flung argument — I'm not an attorney."
But Dean said it is clear that Trump or his staff are "shaking down foreign governments who have moved their events to his hotel in Washington at somebody's request in order to get favors."

So the article seems to state Mueller will use the emoluments clause in the Constitution to bring Trump down???
My word these people are delusional...

I kind of enjoy how they bring these “gift” accusations against Trump. They are the guilty and make their own box.
Educate your masses Mr. Dean and watch your party burn.

Ol’ Howling Howard never disappoints. A bitter nutbar who wakes up miserable every single day realizing that Obama failed to confiscate even a single gun.

There’s a youtube vid of the Howard Dean scream slowed down & played backwards. Like the wailing of the damned, if they spoke Japanese.

More like Haliperidol or Seroquel, given their detachment from reality.
