Hey Ake! Trump is the boy that's gonna clean up all the corruption in Washington, right??



WASHINGTON — Rudolph W. Giuliani, a top adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump, said on Sunday that it would be "unrealistic" to remove Mr. Trump's children from their roles in running his business empire and place the assets into a blind trust like the ones used by previous presidents.

Ethics experts said Mr. Giuliani's remarks were misguided on ethical and political grounds.

"It is extremely inappropriate,"said Richard W. Painter, a White House ethics officer during the George W. Bush administration. "In the past 200 years, we have never had a president with such egregious conflicts of interest with family business holdings."
