nds (nds@dent.smithfam.info)'s status on Wednesday, 23-Nov-2016 16:11:38 UTC nds Trump is off a bit: it's not that there's "no conflict of interest for the President" it's that *everything* is potentially a conflict of interest due to the executive's power. There's no legal penalty for conflicts of interest, but that doesn't mean such conflicts should not be eliminated for the good of trust in the administration.

nds (nds@dent.smithfam.info)'s status on Thursday, 10-Nov-2016 03:18:22 UTC nds I doubt many Trump voters harbor any illusions about the quality of his character. And I'd wager that the majority of his voters also object to at least some of his campaign proposals. So it must have been a pretty important message that people wanted to send if they were willing to elect such an imperfect candidate to send it.
If you are baffled by the results of election day, try finding out what that message may be. Read some commentary from outside your normal circle of political influence. Talk to the Trump voters in your life. It is not tenable to have a political climate where people won't listen to what matters to others.In conversation from dent.smithfam.info permalink
