Question about G-7 summit at Doral

[CloudWatcher]

So Trump's corruption is just in-your-face now, not even trying to hide it ...

Trump has awarded next year’s G-7 summit of world leaders to his Miami-area resort, the White House said

The US has laws banning giving bribes. And before we turned into a 3rd-world dictatorship, they were actually enforced (at least when abuses were discovered).

My question: how many of the other G-7 countries would be prohibited by their own laws from attending the summit, given that they would be publicly giving money directly to Trump?

1. world leaders need to BOYCOTT

Bedbug fest 2020.

2. Article 1, Section 9, Clause 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.

3. Consent of the Congress

What a loophole! An argument could be said that by not impeaching and removing him from office, Congress is implicitly giving consent.

This is obviously an impeachable offense. My question is how strong are the laws against giving bribes in the other six countries? I.e. he could give a G-7 summit and have nobody show up.

4. implicit consent is not much of an argument

the clause requires an action by congress, not inaction.

Although failure to impeach amounts to the same thing, as the only enforcement of this section is congress through impeachment.

5. Agreed

I am beyond pissed Congress didn't impeach and remove him the day he took office w/out having released his taxes or actually put his investments into a blind trust. He was obviously corrupt the day he took office.
