Trump Is Running a Business—Not a Country: The Conflict of Interest We Can’t Ignore Since returning to office, Donald Trump has used the presidency not to serve the public—but to serve himself. He’s launched Trump Mobile, a branded cell phone and service plan. He’s pushed $Trump and $Melania crypto coins, and he’s selling access to a private D.C. club called “The Executive Branch”—with a $500,000 membership price tag. All of it promoted with the power and visibility of the presidency. Meanwhile, he spends significant time golfing at his own resorts, cutting private deals, hosting events, and holding meetings at properties he profits from. No divestment. No blind trust. No attempt to separate public duty from personal profit. This is not just unethical—it likely violates the Foreign and Domestic Emoluments Clauses of the U.S. Constitution, which bar presidents from profiting off foreign governments or receiving benefits beyond their salary. The presidency is not a brand. It’s not a hustle. It’s not a product. And no one—Democrat or Republican—should be allowed to treat it like one. This matters. Because if Congress doesn’t act now, we normalize corruption at the highest level. We’re watching a president use public office for private gain in real time. Contact your Senators and Representatives today. Demand action. Ask them to: • Support laws that require presidential divestment • Investigate these ongoing abuses • Enforce the Emoluments Clauses • Put the country above one man’s profit 📞 U.S. Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224‑3121 You’ll be connected to your Senator or House member’s office.
