Me to my 7yo:  It is with mere subjective hope that this cookie I offer to you for cleaning your room will transform into future positive behavior that benefits my derivative parental interests

Basically just because someone tries to bribe POTUS by spending money at his establishments doesn't mean he has to give them what they want nor does it mean he can't profit of said attempt...wow...

Sheesh.
Forestalling that "hope" is the exact purpose of the Emoluments Clause.
Any lawyers over there?
