Donald Trump Is Being Sued For 'Violating A Clause Of The US Constitution'

Donald Trump Is Being Sued For 'Violating A Clause Of The US Constitution'

Wowza.

Former reality TV star and current US President Donald Trump has received his first lawsuit in office for allegedly violating a clause of the constitution which prohibits federal office holders from making money from foreign governments.

Responding to the allegation, Trump told reporters at the White House that the lawsuit by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington was "without merit."

The lawsuit claims that he continues to make money from foreign governments through his various business ties. Examples cited in the lawsuit include leases held by foreign governments in Trump Tower, room reservations in Trump's D.C. hotel and payments from foreign governments to rebroadcast episodes of The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, seeks to stop Trump from accepting any improper payments, saying a constitutional provision known as the "emoluments" clause bans them.

Prior to his inauguration, The Donald said he would retain ownership of his global business holdings while president, but hand off day-to-day control to his oldest sons, Eric and Donald Jr.

U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams, an appointee of former president Barack Obama, will preside over the lawsuit, according to Reuters.

You might not know it but Trump broke some pretty historic records upon becoming president, including being the first commander-in-chief to star in a porn film...

The President Porno

As well as becoming the only president in the office's 228-year history to have no prior political or military experience, there was another first claimed by The Donald when he was sworn in.

From George Washington to Barack Obama, no US President had starred in a porn film before taking office, but with Trump in the White House that has all changed.

Back in 2000, the 70-year-old appeared in a softcore porno produced by Playboy.

In the clip, Trump is seen spraying champagne foam at a Playboy-branded limousine on a New York City street, as well as being joined by several Playboy playmates.

The clip was obtained from an adult video store in Buffalo, New York, by Buzzfeed News.

They describe the rest of the film as featuring: "Fully nude women posing in sexual positions, dancing naked, touching themselves while naked, touching each other sensually, rubbing honey on themselves, taking a bath, and dressing in costumes."

Ironically, in August, Trump signed a pledge promising to crack down on pornography if elected.
