Well, he’s actually effin wrong.
The exclusions are the President and V.P.
Besides, if he steps down from Trump Enterprises the point becomes moot.
Excellent.
Although government regs exempt the prez and VP, they may not apply here. If the guy is right, Trump agreed to those terms when he executed the lease and, as between the parties, will have to live with those terms. Yes, he needs to step down from his role. But what if he is not allowed to assign the contact to his kids or a trust? We will have to see the language regarding that.
He’s not talking about the law in general, but the terms of the lease on one specific federally owned property. He could be right,
The Donald’s financial holdings will be held in a trust, as ALL personal financials of presidents are.

How dare you bring up REAL FACTS in an Emotional Argument
“Well, he’s actually effin wrong. The exclusions are the President and V.P.”
This is not the constitution. This is the words on the lease.
However, it is unclear that since he was elected after the lease was signed that he is totally obligated to end the lease.
I don’t know whether the professor is right or wrong. If he is right, I am sure that there are legal options that will protect Trump’s investment and still comply with the law.
I trust that Trump will do the right thing, whether it’s turn it over to the kids, step down from Trump enterprises, sell the lease, or something else.
He has given up a LOT already to fix this country. If he has to give this up, I hope he does in order to prevent the distraction of wrangling about it for the next 4 (or 8) years.
I’m pretty confident he will be well placed and well rewarded after he is out of office, regardless of what happens to this property.

Yep - he may take political flak - which is gonna happen anyway - but there's nothing illegal about it.
This guy is a law professor like Obama was a Constitutional professor...
