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.
This is not it. What an abhorrent and sadistic take.
Here’s a handy tip for the future: if you find yourself writing a sentence that goes “I really hope […] poor people […] suffer greatly”, maybe reconsider posting it.
The […] Is doing some heavy lifting.
That’s like saying that “I hope the black people that killed my parents suffer greatly” shouldn’t be said. You can’t just " I hope […] black people […] suffer greatly" it.
