Why should I care?
The Emoluments Clause bars the president from taking money or favors from foreign governments. It's one of the Constitution's oldest rules, meant to stop a foreign country from buying a U.S. leader's loyalty. Separately, federal law bars officials from profiting off matters they influence, but a carve-out exempts the President, Vice President, Members of Congress, and judges by name. This money, aside from the portion that is foreign investments, isn't illegal but it is unprecedented: every prior president avoided profiting from office, because the risk the law exists to stop — money or gifts buying influence — doesn't disappear just because they can't be prosecuted for it.
"Trump has made most of the cash by launching his own crypto ventures—reversing his outspoken, skeptical stance on crypto—while aggressively deregulating the industry. Trump takes a cut in cash from the trades and sales of the family's coins and tokens along with stablecoin interest … Trump's businesses have also profited off of hosting political and official events at Trump-owned properties, licensing deals in foreign countries, and NFTs."
