Trump defends hotel use amid Air Force controversy. More here:
WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump on Monday dismissed Democrats’ allegations of impropriety over Vice President Mike Pence’s stay at Trump’s Irish resort and over the U.S. military’s use of a Scottish airport near a Trump-owned golf course.
Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives are looking into Pence’s stay at the Trump International Golf Club in Doonbeg on the west coast of Ireland, which is 180 miles from the capital, Dublin, where his meetings were held. In a statement, the Air Force said it would review all guidance related to the selection of airports and lodging accommodations during international travel.
The U.S. Constitution bars government officials, including the president, from receiving financial benefits known as emoluments from foreign or domestic governments, without approval from Congress.
