As if receiving unconstitutional emoluments and having psychological meltdowns on national tv wasn't enough, as if nepotism and selecting inept campaign donors to run agencies didn't sound alarms, the con artist has taken it one step further to show himself unfit for the office of the presidency.
His own company has now ordered the manufacture of new tee markers for golf courses that are emblazoned with the seal of the president of the United States. Under federal law, the seal’s use is permitted only for official government business. Misuse can be a crime.
Past administrations have policed usage vigilantly. In 2005 the Bush administration ordered the satirical news website The Onion to remove a replica of the seal. Grant M. Dixton, associate White House counsel, wrote in a letter to The Onion that the seal “is not to be used in connection with commercial ventures or products in any way that suggests presidential support or endorsement.”
But just like the con artist said it's impossible for him to have a conflict of interest which is why he still runs his companies from the oval office and uses the office to goad people into using his properties, he now believes it is perfectly acceptable to demean the office more than he already has.
Eagle Sign and Design, a metalworking and sign company with offices in New Albany, Indiana, and Louisville, Kentucky, said it had received an order to manufacture dozens of round, 12-inch replicas of the presidential seal to be placed next to the tee boxes at Trump golf course holes. Two tee markers are placed on the ground at the start of a hole on golf courses to indicate where golfers should stand to take their first swing.
“We made the design, and the client confirmed the design,” said Joseph E. Bates, who owns Eagle Sign, declining to say who the client was.
