WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald trump will host next year’s Group of seven economic summit of developed country leaders at his Florida Golf resort, a move Democrats and others have condemned as further evidence the President is abusing his office for personal Gain.

Acting White house chief of staff Mick Mulvaney on Thursday said at a news conference that the G7 summit will be held at the Trump national Doral Golf resort near Miami on June 10-12 after the administration selected it from about a dozen potential sites.

The Republican President faces constant criticism and a series of congressional investigations over his finances and potential conflicts of interest stemming from his real estate business, which he still owns. He also faces an impeachment investigation over allegations that he pursued political interests in his dealings with Ukraine.

The U.S. Constitution’s emoluments clause prohibits government officials from receiving salaries, royalties, or profits from foreign and domestic governments without congressional approval. Democrats have said they will investigate trump’s plan to hold the G7 on his property after he floated the idea in August.

House speaker Nancy Pelosi and other democratic lawmakers condemned the choice.

“The Constitution is clear: the President cannot accept gifts or payments from foreign governments. No one is above the law, ” Pelosi wrote on Twitter.

House judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, in a statement, called the statement “among the most brazen examples of presidential corruption.” Nadler said the Committee would continue to investigate “regarding these matters.”

Mulvaney told reporters that trump would not profit from the use of the property because any fees would be “at cost.” He also said using Doral “was millions of dollars cheaper” than other facilities and would result in “roughly 50% savings.”

“Face to face, he would criticize no matter what he decided to do. But, no, there’s no problem here on him profiting from it in any way, shape or form, ” Mulvaney told reporters.

Trump has repeatedly criticized Joe Biden, the leading Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President, over his son’s business ties to Ukraine and China, which trump has repeatedly and without evidence called corrupt.

Asked how the President’s use of his private business property for official government events differs from trump’s accusations against the Bidens, Mulvaney told reporters there would be no profit and said the family made their money before trump became President in January 2017.

Trump said he is not involved in the day-to-day operations of his private company and that his sons run the business.

Republican Senator MITT Romney, who has criticized trump’s dealings with Ukraine but has not called for his impeachment, called the choice “a very unusual choice of site.”

The Democratic national Committee said in a statement that it appears trump is trying to resuscitate a loss-making property that “has been a hemorrhage of money.”

In may, the Washington Post reported that Doral’s operating income had fallen 69 percent since 2015, citing company documents it reviewed.

Other Democrats said they were stunned by the announcement, and noted the irony made on the same day House oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings died, whose Committee was probing whether trump used taxpayer funds to enrich himself.

“All pretense is gone,” said representative Peter Welch, a member of the oversight Committee. Referring to trump’s eldest daughter, he added, ” He’ll probably have Ivanka there, checking them out and taking deposits.”
