Donald Trump yesterday tweeted that he'd make an announcement about relinquishing his interests -- or at least his leadership -- of his "great" companies in mid-December. "While I am not mandated to do this under the law, I feel it is visually important, as president, to in no way have a conflict of interest with my various businesses."
The key word is visually. Not ethically. Apparently, if its not visually a conflict, it's not a problem.
Well, given how he ran his campaign, Trump is probably right.
