Ethics watchdog offers to help Nordstrom sue Trump under California Unfair Competition Law

From Raw Story:

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/02/ethics-watchdog-offers-to-help-nordstrom-sue-trump-under-california-unfair-competition-law/

Norm Eisen, co-founder of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, has offered to help Nordstrom and other companies sue President Donald Trump for improperly using his executive position to hurt their businesses.

In a tweet on Wednesday, Trump blasted Nordstrom for dropping his daughter Ivanka’s line of products.

“My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom,” Trump tweeted using the official POTUS account. “She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!”

Eisen immediately called the president’s tweet “outrageous.”

“Nordstrom, others injured should consider suing, incl. under CA Unfair Comp Law, forbidding ‘any unfair biz act,'” Eisen wrote on Twitter. “I will help!”

Can't wait till drumpf enterprises clears out the East Wing of the WH and sets up a clothing, jewelry, shoe and accessories retail store.

and after the election, Trump can literally kill someone and he won't lose any voters and won't get impeached. He doesn't care about laws or constitution. He can get away with literally anything. He can violate anything and the only way to remove him is impeachment.
