Congratulations to the US Supreme Court for writing the Emoluments Clause out of the US Constitution. By taking no action and sending it back to the lower courts by insisting the issue is moot, you’ve made it impossible to actually enforce the Emoluments Clause going forward since it takes a significant amount of time to sue and bring an action against a 1 term president.

The court should have taken the case and ruled - because it has long term application. Their refusal to act also has long term consequence - these originalists and right wingers have written a clear portion of the Constitution out of existence to protect the most corrupt admin in history. We’re now going to watch courts rule that going after Trump now is moot - getting away with crimes. That’s the line the Senate GOP is going to use in the trial, the one that they purposefully delayed until after he was out of office.
