"You people with this phony Emoluments Clause" Trump said to reporters.
The foreign emoluments clause is not phony, however, and is enshrined in the US Constitution — Article I, Section 9, Paragraph 8.
The provision bars public officials from receiving gifts or cash from foreign or state governments without congressional approval.
The foreign emoluments clause states: "No Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under the United States, 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."
