Donald Trump moving into the White House is rather unique when compared to other individuals who have become President. Many individuals are more or less lifelong politicians, moving from the Senate floor or a governor’s mansion. A handful over the years have worked for the FBI or the CIA, and a select few made the shift from the military (although a Commander and Chief has rarely gone from a career military figure to President in recent history).
Donald Trump is the first true businessman to become President. In fact, his company not only owns a major, independent, hotel chain worldwide but also there are several connections with clothing lines. This makes his transition into the Oval Office a bit trickier.
Donald Trump has handed over controls of his company to his sons. However, as he said in a recent statement, he does plan on likely returning to the head of his company following the conclusion of his stay as President. This opens up for some possible problems regarding conflict of interest.
Selling off the company may also prove problematic as well. Ultimately, in order to avoid any sort of conflict of interest, his best course of action is to not only step down from his position as CEO but to have his board of directors select a new head, instead of someone related to him.
This way, not only is there no conflict of interest but he won’t have to hear about it from the liberal left. To learn more about why President Trump should distance himself from his company instead of handing it off to his family members check out the video below.
