When he was president, Trump signed into law the Presidential Transition Act,
by which a president would promise to avoid conflicts of interest, along with
other ethics standards.
Now, Trump will not sign that pledge.
This is troubling, as Trump seems to be pushing for exemptions from ethics pledges,
for himself. He has finally given in to allow his high level appointments to be vetted
by the FBI.
As he has done in the past, Trump seems to be living as if he is playing a game,
and is unconcerned with what is legal, or illegal under our fair rule of law, or
what is moral, or immoral.
