This was all discussed openly before the election.

Which has nothing to do with this thread.

Regarding Bill Clinton, as we've been reminded over and over and over, Hillary didn't win, so nobody can answer this question. It was just something she said on the campaign trail. He definitely would not be able to serve as an official member of his wife's cabinet, but it's a dead issue. As I already stated, I don't think any reasonable person is concerned that Trump's family is advising the President-Elect, only that they are involved in running private businesses while helping select members of his cabinet and meeting with foreign leaders.
Odd, I thought that having his kids playing at politics was the OP's primary complaint. Did I miss something?

Every day is "take your kids to work day" when you're Donald Trump — at least it's starting to seem that way. The president-elect met Wednesday with top technology executives in Trump Tower in New York City, and it turned out that his adult children Ivanka, Donald Jr., and Eric Trump had come along for the ride:

Donald Trump brings his 'blind trust' to meeting with tech executives
I am starting to wonder if pater has some mental or other deficiency that requires this constant attendance.

Many have argued that he would tell them what transpired anyway, but maybe he's not capable of cogently transmitting the information or even actually understanding what is happening in the moment.

Does kind of make one go "hmmm..."

Maybe his kids are just interested in sitting in on the meetings.

I would be, if I were them.

At any rate, it's none of your business.

Re the OP, it's ''Trumpland'' where ''anything goes'', that's how it happens.
Won't be long before it will be ''The United States of Trump'' and we will all be ''Trumpites'' or ''Trumpicans'' or whatever.
Truth probably is that his kids are the only ones who will put up with him for any long haul. He destroys anyone who does not agree with him or projects his own failings onto them as a way to take the focus off his own short-comings.
It's corrupt all right, but it's not going to be challenged or change.
We are all being played daily in the biggest con in the history of our country.

I do not have a problem with Mr Trump's accomplished adult children participating in the transition. Though a president-elect, he is essentially still a private citizen. It is his right to organize and staff his transition as he see fit. Btw, Tiffany Trump is not yet an accomplished adult and so is not included in the transition team.

Yet another immature premise and fail at stirring up controversy. Beginning to think this poster is just trolling, the logic is so weak to non-existent. Perhaps she should be put on ignore?

Does make for entertainment though, as the posts give an incite into left coast thought process. Oh my, an oxymoron.
