>>>Its a very unusual situation. Trumps business interests are huge. He's (I think) devolving them to his family. Thats not a blind trust . It may be the best he can manage. No ones been in this position before.

>Agreed. I'm reminded of the nun who told me "if you can't think of something nice to say, say nothing." People ought to pipe down and give Trump a chance.

>>>"Popular vote is a quaint irrelevance in the POTUS vote" maybe not. Its national Internet savvy politics now. The popular vote is not quaint. Its the future.

>Certainly agree that popular vote is the basis of all the most successful societies/economies on earth apart from China and Russia and a few others. ;-) But *national* popular vote is not the selection process for PM or President. If people want President to be on the basis of national popular vote rather than electoral popular vote, they need to be calling for a change in process rather than quoting the wrong calculation because it suits their narrative.

One problem he now has is that his business interests are now going to be dragged out and gone over with forensic detail. He's had this a bit before but I think there's a lot more detail to be done now.
