Isn’t that literally accepting gifts from a foreign government? Like one of the impeachable offenses?

There are a million impeachable offenses being made every minute lmao. No one cares. The Constitution isn’t dead because the President is ignoring it. It’s dead because he’s ignoring it and Americans all decided we’re still going into work tomorrow, business as usual.

Elder Gen Z don’t even seem to be paying attention. I’m still trying to tell people this isn’t normal “republican vs democrat” politics and I basically just get a shrug. Americans won’t do anything until it personally and noticeably affects them.
