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.

    does not matter. americans have a shit education and therrfor are now dumbed down to enjoy a life in idiocracy. and just like last time i am sure hundreds of thousands of the dumbest will die. covid happend when wuhan lover donald was in office and tbis time it is going to be similar. dumb people are a magnet to problems. and the “voter” will love it! some wrestling guy will show them how to treat mpox with cooked rawmilk…it just needs to be a really stupid idea that triggers others. like nobody cares about “the wall” anymore,right? will the fat fuck finish his wall? nope! because retardism is their new religion. i am expecting hulk hogan or kid rock to be in a key position for womensrights, education or something as far out of their mental range as that.
