Trump administration is ethics plagued weeks before inauguration day

Tillerson Ethics Plan Foreshadows Knotty Trump Confirmations
Bloomberg:
Rex Tillerson's disclosure that he stands to receive a $180 million cash payout from Exxon Mobil Corp. if he becomes the next U.S.
Trump's cabinet picks to face scrutiny at confirmation hearings
New York Daily News:
Some of President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet picks will be grilled over Russia, civil rights and immigration conflicts at their confirmation hearings.

Further reports indicate there's a time window to be accommodated in providing a viable personnel complement to the Trump administration, and that due to failure of some Trump selectees to even submit the paperwork for their individual ethics review, they may face confirmation hearings in a Republican controlled congress, without even having completed the ethics vetting process.

BUT !!

Even President Elect, scheduled soon to become President Trump has ethics issues of his own. They include Trump leaving operation of his business concerns to his adult children to manage for him. That is not a “blind trust”.
Other concerns persist as well, with the kitty cat grabbing Republican.

"idiot.....thats him leaving Exxon to MEET ethics requirements...." PP #2

One example of compliance is not proof that all parameters have been complied with.

It's widely reported that some have not.

You think that's irrelevant to a current events forum titled "JustPlainPolitics.com"?

"....why are liberals so fucking stupid......" PP

Why don't you ask one of them?

we'll print that up and hang it on the wall next to "He won't win the nomination", "He won't win the election", "He won't make it past the recount", and "the electoral college will give us a December surprise"......
 
..Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder (TARD) is a terrible thing for a mind to cling..

The Exxon payout is part of Tillerson's leaving ; when was the last time we had a billionaire POTUS with worldwide holdings?

Here is what the Dems/MS media want Trump to do:

"its the only fucking evidence your OP suggested...." PP #4

Thanks.
Right.
I introduced the topic.

And despite a little unauthorized reformatting by the site's editor, I believe I defined the topic sufficiently.

It is neither necessary not desirable to disclose 100% of all details in OP.

a) That's rather more the province of newspapers.
This is an interactive medium.

b) If I'd included all the details in the OP, what would it have left for others to comment on?

"..why not keep your idiot mouth shut until there's something to talk about..."

I type with my fingers, not my mouth.

And if you think this topic unworthy of your "contribution", why are you posting in it?

"...and for gods sake learn how to use the quote button"

You have insulted my intelligence multiple times. That's ironic, as I'm evidently more intelligent than you.

If I'm an idiot, what does that make you?
The neurotic has suspicions, the psychotic has convictions. Szasz

You've presumed I avoid the quotation format feature out of ignorance. In psychology that's called "projection".
Please don't project your intellectual deficiencies on me.

Unfortunately, you're not smart enough to figure out why I don't use it, and instead use bold font instead.

I'll give you 3 guesses about why.
But I doubt you're smart enough to figure it out.

"if you want to be taken seriously......"

Not especially.
I state the truth to the best of my ability.
I always welcome correction / clarification / update.

PS

" when was the last time we had a billionaire POTUS with worldwide holdings? " a #7

I believe the inauguration is set for the 20th.

"Here is what the Dems/MS media want Trump to do: sackcloth"

Even if you're a Democrat/MS I doubt you're their spokesperson.

If you can quote a Democrat spokesperson that has said what you accuse, please quote it with attribute.

But I doubt you will.

And what that means is; you can't compose a valid case; so you just concoct fiction out of thin air; and attempt to disparage them with that.

So you tell me who you think that actually undermines? The falsely accused? Or the libelous liar that posted the false accusation?
 
#9

Thanks.
I quite agree. Introducing ad hom rarely if ever enriches the topic.

#10

You can't afford a computer?
I've got 3 display screens on my desk; two HD, one UHD. It even displays post #s.

////////// back to topic \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

Some suggest there shouldn't even be congressional hearing for any Trump selectee that hasn't satisfactorily completed the preliminary vetting.

It's also worth noting, there's additional question about why they haven't. The Ockham's Razor explanation:
- they have something to hide, &
- they don't think they could survive a proper vetting
- the rules of ethics that apply to everyone else don't apply to Trumpers.
 
"Ethics" is just another form of PC...... This is the party of principles, don't need no stinking PC ethics....:mad:
 
"Ethics" is just another form of PC...." B #16

I've known others to be dismissive of ethics, UNTIL they themselves are treated unethically. Then they squeal like stuck pigs.

".. This is the party of principles" B #16

The GOP ?!

It is the Libertarian party that claims that moniker. You'll find it on their Internet site lp.org

"don't need no stinking PC ethics...." B #16

Update the wording to:

The GOP don't have no ethic

have your secretary type it up, and I'll sign it.
