Trump's tweet yesterday morning about "conflicts of interest" ?

Why did he tweet about "conflicts of interest"? He has tweeted many times about collusion, obstruction of justice, etc, but never "conflict of interests"?

Why now?

Has he received information, perhaps a leak, about one of the charges against him being conflict of interest? He seems to have access to all the information that the intel committees have access to?

Is there a lot of movement behind the scenes that has not yet been reported by the press? Judging from the attitudes of the Republicans at the Judiciary Committee hearing yesterday, they seem to have gotten information that has scared the hell out of them?

But, everybody knows that Donald Trump has conflicts of interest and has had them since day one of the coup. The White House is a money-making machine for he and his family.

Even though they really don't know what it means. But they'll repeat it anyway. With absolutely zero evidence

He always accuses others of being guilty of his own sins.

It just took him a while to get around to this one.

Of course, it might be about the revelations about his relations with the Justice Kennedy family.
