Friend: President Trump is actively using the office of the presidency for his own financial gain – and administration cronies like Vice President Pence are in lock-step with his selfish agenda.

During a recent visit to Ireland, Pence stayed 181 miles from where his scheduled meetings were located – all so he could stay at a Trump golf resort on the taxpayers' dime. In fact, there are reports that Air Force stopovers at an obscure airport near a Trump resort in Scotland have become increasingly common, with overnight stays at the posh setting included for military personnel at the taxpayers' expense.

For this president to take advantage of our military and leverage his position to put money – taxpayer dollars – in his own pocket is disgraceful, unconstitutional and an absolute abuse of power. I'm suing Trump to bring him to justice, but I still need to know if you're with me.

So please, let me know before midnight: Should President Trump be held accountable for his blatant misconduct?

I'm looking forward to seeing your response.

Thank you,

Subject: President Trump's thirst for self-enrichment

Friend,

President Trump's thirst for self-enrichment knows no bounds.

Trump is trying to hold next year's G7 summit of world leaders at one of his private Florida golf resorts – effectively using the power of the presidency to put money from foreign governments into his own pocket. This is a textbook example of a president profiting from his position of power – exactly what the Foreign Emoluments Clause in the U.S. Constitution was written to prevent.

That's why I'm challenging Trump's affront to our Constitution by suing in court, and I need to know if you're with me. I need to hear from 1,589 more concerned Americans before midnight tonight, so please let me know now:

Should President Trump be held accountable for his blatant misconduct?

Thank you for speaking out for justice,
