“We’ve never had a president whose business created as many potential conflicts of interest as Donald Trump, and at the same time we’ve never had a president who cared less about conflicts of interest as Donald Trump.

And Republicans, particularly Congress, have apparently decided that if Trump does it, it’s okay.”
