British pol says Mr Trump met with him to ask him and Parliament to block legislation regarding wind farms that he says will hurt the view at his golf courses. Mr Trump says it will hurt business. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/21/business/with-a-meeting-trump-renewed-a-british-wind-farm-fight.html
November 22, 20169 yr If I am understanding correctly every other POTUS has put businesses/investments into a blind trust. If Mr Trump refuses to do so how can this be anything but a huge deal in DC? It's going to get ugly. It's one thing to put stocks and bonds into a blind trust, how do you put an operating real estate, hotel, golf course and other businesses in a "Blind Trust"? Maybe it can be done, I just haven't heard anyone explain how to do it with anything other than an investment portfolio.

November 22, 20169 yr We agree that his millions upon millions of loans that are outstanding at Bank of China pose a potential issue, correct? What would you have him do to correct this situation? Have the Treasury Dept. take over those loans from Chinese Banks? Like we've said, we've never had a President that was anything but a life long politician...sooner or later someone with a "Real Life" was going to be elected and we were going to face issues like this.
