      You can find fault if you really want to, but @realDonaldTrump appears to have done much more than necessary on the ethics front here.

      The basic problem: Trump still owns company and sons still run it. You can line Trump's pockets through his company, period.

      So, what you're saying is that anyone who owns a company should not be eligible for the presidency.

          you need blind trust. Not give it to family members who run it for you. That is not blind. This isn't hard.

          The public voted for him knowing that he owned this company. This isn't a surprise.

          You changed your argument from "he did enough" to "people don't care" when "he did enough" was shown to be obv. false

          The opportunity for self-enrichment is there no matter what he does. This plan is reasonably strong.

          An Obama DC Luxury Hotel, or Bush Resorts around the world, would've been OK if their family ran them?! Ridiculous.

          What we're saying is you should be prepared to fully divest if you want to be president. Nobody forced him to run.

          Yes, Exactly. Jimmy Carter sold a family peanut farm. This dick head still owns his real estate empire in foreign countries. What a joke.
