You do realize that there is nothing against Trump running his business while being President. The rules that apply to Congress and cabinet positions, aka Sec of State, do not apply to the President. Continuing to run his business wouldn't be a violation of any laws. It would be unethical but not illegal.
I guess if this guy was so worried about conflict's of interest, he should have been worried about Hillary being Sec of State and continuing to have a say in how the Clinton Foundation was run. This is what should have been done in a blind trust. Instead you guys are worried about Trump doing the same exact thing Clinton did.
Clinton divorced herself from the day to day management of the Clinton fund. You will retort with "....sure she did..." but she made a public announcement of such and seems to have followed through on that pledge (a pending justice department probe may dispute this, but as of now, nothing suggests otherwise).
But yeah, the Clinton Foundation, and it's charitable endeavors around the world...providing healthcare, passing out medications, helping poor people worldwide all while paying no salary to the Clinton's themselves (thus not enriching them monetarily) IS EXACTLY the same as Trump's privately run business and using the position of PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES to personally enrich himself monetarily (to the tune of potentially billions of dollars).
You say it's not a legal problem (and surprisingly, it appears to be the case) JUST an ethical one. Just an ethical problem. Just an ethical problem. Ethical. Problem. Ethical (synonyms: moral code, morals, morality, values, rights and wrongs, principles, ideals, standards (of behavior), value system, virtues, dictates of conscience).
You're right...your party's leader probably doesn't have a legal problem. Just one of morals, values, principles, and standards of behavior.
That's good....I guess....?
