Every time a company in which they held shares profited from a foreign country, they profited as well.
Potentially problematic?
His children, who he says are going to run his business, are on his transition team.
They are helping to pick his cabinet and sitting in on meetings with major CEO's and foreign leaders.
What if Hillary Clinton had won and her daughter was running the foundation while also being part of the transition team and was meeting with the heads of huge corporations and foreign leaders?
Have you forgotten all the demands from the right that if she won, they would have to shut down the foundation?
Which BTW is a foundation that does a lot of good work around the world and shutting it down would mean that many people would no longer get their HIV drugs and they would die.
Most presidents like Obama, Bush and Clinton divest themselves of any stock or put their holdings in a blind trust.
