## Transcript

Never in the history of this country, have we had a president with these kinds of extensive business entanglements, or president who refused to adequately distance themselves from their holdings. President Trump's businesses and his dealings violate the Constitution's anti- corruption provision. [ MUSIC ] The President. Above all other elected officials, must have only the interests of Americans at the heart of their decisions. Our constituents must know that a president who orders their sons and daughters into harms way Is not acting out of concern for his own business. They must know that we will not enter into a treaty with another nation because the president owns a golf course there.

They must know that we will not change our trade policy because a foreign government patronize. The president's hotels or resorts, and that the president will not favor one state over another with millions of dollars of federal money, because one state has given has given his Business a tax break. [ MUSIC ]
