You do know that the president and vice president are specifically exempted by law from conflicts of interest, right??

That means he wont have to sell off shit. His entire press conference the other day was on how he was passing the businesses to his sons while his daughter and her husband will be advisors in the white house.

You can thank Hillary Clinton for getting the rules clairified when she tried to take over for Bill when he was president.
Exempt from conflicts of interest? Ummm no. Emoluments clause of the Constitution. Congress can't pass a law to repeal it. To bad for Trump. They can try to amend the constitution.

Clinton wasn't in position to receive money from a foreign power. Rump's business does all the time. Turning control over to his family isn't the same as giving up financial interest. As president, Donald Trump cannot be enriched by money from foreign powers. Which is exactly what is happening right now. He's still a private citizen, so as you point out it's OK. Not the same when he is prez.

Are you just pretending to be this stupid?

Yeah, cause the Kennedy's sold everything off when they were in the white house..... Wait, that's not true....

Trump said that any revenue from his hotels overseas will be donated to the Treasury...

Congrats on being clueless by virtue of not watching the press conference.

What exactly am I supposed to rationalize?

#1. According to federal law, neither the president nor vice president can be in a conflict of interest. This is current law.

#2. Trump says that his sons are not going to talk to him about his businesses. This may or may not happen and I dont care if it is true because #1.

#3. Trump isnt worried about getting richer, that isnt his goal. He is on to bigger and better things with running the country. I dont believe he is in it for the money although he is certainly going to get richer. I mean, look at Hillary Clinton, she was dead broke when her and bill left the whitehouse and through selling all that power and influence they are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The Obama's already have a 20 million dollar advance on a book deal and they have not left the white house yet.

#4. Trumps goals for America are to help out business so I completely expect his businesses to do better.

#5. Trump is going to donate all proceeds from international hotels to the treasury. (this means he is the first president in history to give more money to the government than he receives as salary).

#6. Trump has gone above and beyond what he needed to do and set up as practical a partition between him and his businesses as logically possible.

So basically you don't care if he enriches himself with taxpayers' money, or accept bribes from foreign governments, got it. Fucking idiot:-)

He wont be enriching himself with taxpayers money or accepting bribes from foreign governments, that was Hillary's job.

He will be reducing regulation and increasing the favorable business environment that has already promised the return or savings of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars of investment.

Alibaba has announced a program to employ a million Americans within the next 5 years.

Of course if he gets the economy growing at 4%+ per year you will simply claim he did it all for himself... ROFLMAO!
