Our country's top ethics officer has resigned in disgust. Will Trump dare to nominate a replacement?

Asked by stanleybmanly (24153points) July 19th, 2017 from iPhone

Anyone Trump nominates now for any office requiring Senate confirmation will face some brutal questions around the President’s massive conflicts of interest.

The words ethics, and Trump should never share the same paragraph…

He will nominate some former Wall Street and/or Mafia operative.
You know, to further ” drain the swamp”.

Who would dare to be nominated for such a position by Trump? It is actually quite amusing, the potential nominees are already fleeing the White House and diving for cover.

More to the point the President thinks that ethics are for “LOSERS” and ethics in business is “bad bad BAD !”

It is a sad state of affairs but it is what 35% of the population wants. ;>)
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ The other 65% are just “Losers”

With his track record he’ll try to hire a convicted embezzler.

@CWOTUS resigned in disappointment?

Ethics and DC don’t go together. The Ethics officer resigned in disgust. But he was also in office when two Supreme Court justices violated all sorts of ethics rules and he did absolutely nothing. Ethics and party politics or personal agendas are not compatible.

Parody his successor.
Because regardless who comes next, it is not going to get any less ridiculous.
