Mr. Trump doesn't sign Ethics forms

The Presidential Transition Act requires a ethics plan and pledge. I believe that they have created and submitted it, albeit late. But it leaves out any details about the president elect own ethical behavior. But what else does anyone expect from the Grifter in Chief.



The Presidential Transition Act requires a presidential transition team to submit an ethics pledge, well before voters select a candidate, that lays out how their administration will uphold ethics standards throughout the transition period and beyond.

Trump’s team missed the pre-Election Day deadline to submit a transition plan and ethics code, raising concerns that a possible second term would be mired in ethics conflicts like his first.

On November 27, weeks after Trump was elected, he finally presented an ethics plan that explains how the transition team will handle appearances of conflicts of interest.

But one major component cannot be found in the document: language on how these ethics requirements will apply to the president himself. These key details are noticeably missing.

Evidently you didn't read everything. If you did you would have found the problem.

Like those forms have kept any other POTUS from doing things that may have been deemed "unethical". Trump is the embodiment of the repudiation of the image over substance "ethos" of the modern American political era. It falls in line he wouldn't do it. I only care that he is more effective than he was during his first term, which, frankly, wasn't that great, given his outsider status and all the roadblocks put up against him inside the beltway. This country has a lot of problems that need solving...quickly. If he has to bend a few rules to get real sh*t done, I'm not going to fault him.

One of the reasons that Trump had such pushback during his first administration is because he absolutely refused to bend to the rules and norms of the office.

Maybe he’ll be more effective this time around but only because he’s going to burn down the system around him.

Anyone who thinks that he will only “bend” the rules is just plain naive or delusional.

Trump...3rd worst President of all time.

He is off to a terrible start, and proving he is worthy of that rating.

Thanks MAGAs. This is what you consider to be "winning".

The one thing about Trump is that he is very transparent. He doesn't even bother to hide his lack of respect for what every president is willing to agree to before taking office. That dipshit thinks he is going to be able to just walk in and do whatever he wants. Dummy is going to eventually find out the hard way that checks and balances are there for a reason and we're not Russia and he isn't Putin.
