Judge dismisses lawsuit alleging Trump violated Constitution
Source: Washington Post
A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit Thursday alleging that President Trump violated the Constitution’s emoluments clause because his hotels and restaurants do business with foreign governments while he is in office.
The plaintiffs argued that because Trump properties rent out hotel rooms and meeting spaces to other governments, the president was violating a constitutional provision that bans the acceptance of foreign emoluments, or gifts from foreign powers.
But Judge George B. Daniels of the Southern District of New York ruled that the plaintiffs, led by the government watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), lacked standing to bring such a case, saying it was up to Congress to prevent the president from accepting emoluments.
“As the only political branch with the power to consent to violations of the Foreign Emoluments Clause, Congress is the appropriate body to determine whether, and to what extent, Defendant’s conduct unlawfully infringes on that power,” Daniels wrote in his ruling.

Looks like it is just stating the plaintiffs have no standing and it is up to Congress to determine.

Assuming we can take back Congress! 
but seems he has done little of that considering all he has his tiny hands in... But his kids also run parts of the business and theoretically it could be named for them as well (although their behinds are sitting in the government too). 
I'm certain we'll be hearing a lot more about this next year. It will eventually be included in the articles of impeachment.
