There seems to be a developing liberal meme out there, to the effect that Trump has all these business conflicts of interest, and how will be separate being president from running his businesses, etc.

Some have pointed out how peanut warehouse businessman/farmer Jimmy Carter, put his assets and businesses in a blind trust when he was president.

Granted there is a large difference in scope and business interests between Trump and Jimmy Carter’s farming and peanut warehouse business.

Did any in the media speculate, that if Hillary became president, the Clinton foundation and her speechraking in the dollars would present the Clintons with conflicts of interest???

Oh, it’s fully developed. It was the headline story on both local newspapers here in Florida on friday.

Did anyone in the media ever question Clinton's conflict of involvement in her foundation while Secretary of State?

Yeah, actually they did.

Given Trump's complaining about the CF's conflicts of interest I think he has some exposure here.
