      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.

      Technically that right there would make it ok if the house passes the same. But my God, if we’re going to use that qualifier to let the president have something from a foreign state did it have to be a fucking 747?

        This vote was against an amendment to a bill that would ban him from keeping it. Not a grant to do so.

          Good to know! Something like this should absolutely be impeachable (I know lots of things should be, but this is one of the most clear IMO) and with a little luck things will change after 2026

          I know, I can dream…
