Irrelevant when he invested--if he still owns, that's a problem--bigly.
What is it you don't get about conflict of interests?
This is what is going to trip him up, violate the Constitution and get him impeached, if he does not liquidate. Emoluments Clause.
"...At the time of his most recent disclosure statement in May, Trump owned $100,000 to $250,000 of stock in Phillips 66, which has a 25 percent stake in the Dakota Access project..."

Do you dems even know what a conflict of interest is? I would guess not because you dems said the Clintons had no conflict of interest with their pay for play.
Trump has no conflict of interest because he isn't making any decisions on the pipeline. Heck, Trump may not even own any of that stock anymore.
Some of my mutual funds have money in that company, too. *shrug* And I am not fully in favor of the Dakota pipeline. I think it is dirty that it was re-routed to down river of Bismark. Makes me doubt the claim of its' infallible safety, or even being reasonably safe. Personally concerning as I have family and friends who would be horridly affected by a spill.
