A D.C. wine bar is taking on President Trump's business empire.

"We believe very strongly that he is using his office to unfairly and unlawfully promote his hotel and his restaurants in those hotels, and that's taking away business not only from my business, but also from other businesses here in Washington, D.C.," Khalid Pitts said.

Pitts and his wife, Diane Gross, have owned Cork Wine Bar for 10 years. Since then, dozens of new businesses have popped up in the neighborhood. But he says he can't compete with the president and has filed a lawsuit in D.C. Superior Court for unfair competition.

About a mile away in the historic old post office building is Trump International Hotel. Trump's company, which he still owns, leases this building from the federal government. The hotel opened its doors during the 2016 presidential campaign. The president's staff and foreign dignitaries stay and dine on the property.
