    Is it ethical to continue profiting off business deals while president? I feel like it is a conflict of interest. We already know Trump pocketed from charging the SS to stay at his resorts. The surprising thing though is how much he made from China for a guy who doesn't do business in China. Will Comer open an investigation into why a presidential candidate is doing business with communist China, or is he too busy?

    The mere fact that a POTUS can remain in charge of his company once elected is an aberration.

    To my knowledge, the US is the only advanced nation on this planet where this is possible.

    This opens the door to widespread influence peddling.

    Those who believe that Trump negotiated trade deals with no thought of making personal money are out of touch with reality.

    He woke up every morning with a view to making his company profitable, as he has always done since he inherited it.

    The US is also an advanced nation with a sitting president doing China's bidding.

    Interesting.... I did not know time travel was invented in 2018. I recommend you go BACK to 2015 and spread that word.

    But welcome to the future, sir....

    Clinton’s foundation raked in hundreds of millions while she was SOS and no one on the left complained. And that foundation dried up when she lost an election. Did you guys know her daughter worked there?

    Always quick to his defense. Deflection attempt noted, but still no proof of joe taking a cent from China.

    His family did and he denied it at first than then his son admitted it.

    I'll say this; Biden is too stupid to set up all those LLCs and have money sent to his family from all around the world, he must have had help and the people helping him knew to keep his name off of everything.

    And I'll say this again: In China they don't bribe people directly because the new found wealth is too obvious, instead the money goes to family members. Now tell me, who is in bed with China?

    Nothing was going to get investigated as long as Comey's brother worked for the wench's foundation. I'm guessing every palm that needed to get greased as to keep her safe was greased and greased as well as the days when she went weeks without washing her hair and smelled awful as per her aides.

    Joe Biden didn’t get a penny.
