Howay 12496 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 "similar questions were raised about how the Rockefeller family's vast wealth in the oil industry and other investments might impact his duties as VP. At the Senate's request, the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel drafted an opinion saying the conflict of interest laws were best read not to apply to the vice president." So they're essentially saying "ahh it's too hard to work all that shit out just ignore it in his case", that article is fucking unbelievable tbh. It's similar in a way to how they had to create new laws that stopped insider trading by members of the house, despite the fact it's illegal for normal people anyway so why would you need a law for just them? I love the bits in that article that basically mention "yeah the Senate didn't love it but we got it through", shocker that the only ones that didn't get an exclusion or a pay rise weren't thrilled by it .

Happy Face 29 Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 Interesting thought pieces doing the rounds about Trump hotels potentially being targeted for terror attacks and how that would affect thee perception of him. The Trump brand would become synonymous with American resistance to terror. Trump hotels get the security of embassy's and people elect to stay there as a political statement and show of American solidarity. He gets the best approvals since Bush after 9/11 or longer. Worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
