The community college’s board of trustees voted in September to gift 2.63 acres of real estate to the state of Florida, which then transferred the land to the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation for future use.

Plaintiffs claim that the land transfer violated the Domestic Emoluments Clause of the U.S. Constitution, which bars sitting presidents from receiving financial benefits from state governments.

    It seems so wierd to me for a college to gift land to the state its in. Especially a community college. Usually its the other way around. It is going to be hilarious though if donny boys pres library is basically on a community college while obamas is essentially right off university of chicago one of the most prestigious in the country. classic. Not only a community college but one in florida to boot.
