Trump Is Legally Correct: Ethics Rules Do Not Apply To Him

Trump Is Legally Correct: Ethics Rules Do Not Apply To Him
Disappointing, not just that it doesn't apply to the President, but to Congress as well. "Under Title 18 Section 208 federal executive branch employees are barred from participating in matters where they have financial interests. Thus, employees use blind trusts to avoid the conflicts since they do not have knowledge of their investments. However, Section 208 expressly exempts the president, vice president, members of Congress and federal judges"
