According to The Washington Post, former president Donald Trump was photographed using the presidential seal while hosting a Saudi Arabia-backed LIV golf tournament in Bedminster.
Using the seal is “a violation of federal law that could result in imprisonment of ‘not more than six months,’ a fine, or both,” The Post reports.
“The seal was plastered on towels, golf carts and other items as the former president participated in the pro-am of the Saudi-sponsored tournament Thursday. While violating this law could result in imprisonment of ‘not more than six months,’ a fine, or both, these punishments are rarely dolled out,” the newspaper noted.
The former president is notorious for using the presidential seal for personal gain.
