Donald Trump unfazed by his conflicts of interest

According to data from Quinnipiac University, most voters think he should stop tweeting but, by a margin of 59 to 37, most “are optimistic about the next four years with Donald Trump as president”.

Butler and Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks both declined to comment to the Times on whether the meeting involved any talk of expanding their business partnership. What more can you tell us about that? And he has five buildings in India. It was a short meeting. And then later these developers went on social media kind of bragging about seeing Trump.

“It’s just not something that I feel very strongly about”, he said, according to Times journalists who live tweeted the hour-long session.

GRYNBAUM: You know, I have to defer to his words. He leases out his name for developers to use. It really represents a conflict.

There have been concerns raised about conflicts of interest since numerous businesses are subject to government actions in the US and overseas. The tax filing, first reported Tuesday by The Washington Post, didn’t provide details. According to a group of officials from NY, these costs will drop significantly after Donald Trump will move to the White House. Although a brochure promoting the property includes a photograph of Trump and quotes his praises of the hotel, his organization’s website discloses that developer Aetos SA owns the property and states it is not “developed or sold by Donald J. Trump”. The meeting’s content was to be off-the-record but many participants were photographed as they entered through the Trump Tower lobby.

But the real challenge for Trump will be the less formal check provided by a free and independent press.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest is confirming that President Barack Obama has spoken with his successor on at least one occasion since their Oval Office meeting.

Two people briefed on Monday’s meeting said that Mr. Trump seemed well versed in the networks’ ratings increase during the election and did not hesitate to bring the subject up. The children were supposedly set to run the Trump businesses through a “blind trust”, but all three also serve on their father’s transition team. She says those who urged her not to meet with him were “wrong” and that it’s important to find common ground on education policy. Does that – do you think that will work?

Trump is facing questions about whether he and his children face a conflict of interest by having roles in the presidential transition and the Trump Organization. For instance, actually today, there was a story.

The Times said that before the give-and-take on issues, the president-elect complained about some of the newspaper’s coverage of him, saying “I think I’ve been treated very rough”. At one point, the president-elect said that he condemns the alt-right, that he disavows them.

Trump appointed a leading climate change denier Myron Ebell to lead his transition efforts on the Environmental Protection Agency and has not stepped back from his vow to slash environmental regulations he argued during the campaign are an undue burden on United States businesses.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has softened his initial immigration threat to build a wall along the United States border line with Mexico. “The TV execs and anchors went in there thinking they would be discussing the access they would get to the Trump administration, but instead they got a Trump-style dressing down”.

Trump lit out after Zucker, criticizing his former business partner (Zucker was head of NBC during Trump’s Apprentice franchise on the network) for CNN.

“Trump is trying to intimidate the networks into giving him less critical coverage”, Feldstein said.
