Something tells me that Trump's supporters will fail to provide an adequate response to your question, and as a consequence, through their inability to do so, demonstrate that Trump effectively spewed a much of nonsense to try to dupe people into thinking that he was going to "drain the swamp" when in reality once he got to Washington he would have said, "Ooops, sorry - that's not within my purview." Or worse, he'd issue an EO which would be ignored as outside his authority and power to enforce. Or worse still, he'll try to enforce it, thereby committing an impeachable offense.
There are a lot of people who want term limits. So even if he can't get it passed he can garner a lot of votes for holding the position.
In other words: you have nothing. It looks bad on the surface so you're just going to assume the worse.
You'll excuse people like me who are more facts based.
It's not me who is proclaiming there is no evidence, it's the government agencies who looked into it who said that. If you disagree, you should have more solid evidence than, "Well, it looks bad..."

Liberals are such hypocrites.
The rule was not made up by me, rather it has been in place before we were born, so as to not appear as if something is inappropriate. Many professions like the legal system use the principle, and for good reason.
Regardless, you just ignore (willfully) the reality of the situation. But lets see why you think critics are all wet.
What do you think is the reason GS or others have paid Hillary massive amounts of money for one speech?
Please don't insult our intelligence by playing semantics saying the ubiquitous "access" word. Or if you are going to use the term instead of payola, bribes, favors, explain EXACTLY what access means to you?
For example there are reports that Gulf State sheiks have paid Hillary & Bill 100 million dollars. What are they getting for their money in your estimation
You want to talk about stupid - Where did I say it's ok for Hillary but not for Trump????.
Exactly, you have not done anything but bash trump.......

Maybe you don't understand the difference in a PRIVATE speech (hillary, we cannot read the transcripts, yet we know she say one thing to us, and say another to them) vs. an speech that is open to the public.

Yup, you cannot make this crap up, that the left continues to push the narrative that "well trump makes more money" and yet we know exactly what trump said, not a damn thing what hillary said, except she tells us one thing and the rich another....
So damn sad you cannot figure that out....expected, yet still sad.
Trump:
1) an expert in Real Estate paid $$$$$$$ to attend a Real Estate Investors convention, because he has knowledge of Real Estate and is a draw
2) Attendees pay to attend the event in part to see Trump and other events
3) Group putting on the event makes a profit $$$$ off of event
4) People know what Trump said at the event
Hillary:
1) not an expert in Wall Street gets paid $$$$$$$$$ to speak at Wall Street events due to selling influence
2) Attendees do not pay, but are employees
3) Wall Street is not generating direct revenue from the event, but actually taking a loss (and getting a tax write off for paying Hillary)
4) People do not know what Hillary said at the event outside of the WikiLeaks where Hillary shows to be a servant of Wall Street.
Democrats are the party of the rich and well connected
Really.
