    How can he be a business owner AND a politician? That’s a clear conflict of interest.

        they don’t - it’s not about trust, it’s just spitefully gravitating to whatever “makes liberal heads explode”.

      That’s a clear conflict of interest.

      I’ll give you one guess as to which party he’s a member of and how little they care about conflicts of interest.

      Hint: It’s the party currently directly violating our Constitution by allowing the president to violate the Emoluments Clause.

      Reminder: They are only able to do this because voters keep giving them power, despite constantly providing us reasons why we shouldn’t.
