    Remember when you guys had Carter and he was in hot shit until he sold his fucking peanut farm or whatever?

    Let’s be clear about this: Carter was never “in hot shit” about his farm. Carter put his farm in a blind trust proactively because he respected the emoluments clause and interpreted it broadly.

      Yeah I’m not really that well versed in what happened. All I know is “something something Carter something something peanut farm.” Thank you for clarifying.
