https://theweek.com/articles/940021/trump-literally-cant-afford-lose-electionIf Trump can't afford to lose power, can America afford having him in power for another four years?
The available data just scratch the surface of "the actual and potential conflicts of interest created by Mr. Trump's refusal to divest himself of his business interests while in the White House," the Times reports. "His properties have become bazaars for collecting money directly from lobbyists, foreign officials, and others seeking face time, access, or favor." Turkey's authoritarian government, led by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has "not hesitated to leverage various Trump enterprises to their advantage," the Times says.
On issue after issue, how can we know if Trump is acting in America's interest or his own?
