Summary
Donald Trump has exempted himself from key ethics guidelines required under the Presidential Transition Act, which he signed into law in 2020.
By rejecting federal funding for his transition team, Trump avoids donor limits and disclosure requirements, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and transparency.
Critics, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and government watchdogs, warn that Trump’s refusal to submit an ethics plan undermines accountability and could open the door to corruption.
This move marks a break from precedent and has sparked alarm over potential personal enrichment during his presidency.
I guess… he barely won the popular vote, and didn’t pick up any significant amount of new voters. I wouldn’t say the basically half of voters who voted against this deserve it.
The 80 million people who didn’t vote deserve it.
Man, no wonder we go to war with people all the time. Can’t even not wish harm on people simply for not voting. Is it frustrating, sure, but i don’t wish harm on people over it.
