I don't think Trump has to put his business in a blind trust.
Lets not forget that there is no longer any conflict of interest, you democrats did away with any conflicts of interest to protect the Clintons, and their overt pay for play.
You are much too satisfied with that response. The clintons did not do away with conflicts of interest.
We can banter this back and forth on here till the cows come home, but the facts are, this issue is not as cut and dry as Trump or his supporters would hope. He simply can not have it both ways, so he has to decide if he wants to be a businessman or a President.
He may put up the smoke and mirrors that he is "not bound" by conflict of interest, or that he has complied, but we all know he has simply given control of his businesses to his family in a wink wink kind of deal where he will still be involved. Just having his name on the businesses is a problem.
He didn't think this part of it through very well before throwing his hat in the ring , and it is going to be something he has to deal with. People are not going to turn a blind eye to what he is trying to pull, and are going to hold his feet to the fire.
