Holy sh*t! Nixon's back! Internet aghast as Trump claims POTUS cant have conflicts of interest

Donald Trump met with the New York Times editorial board Tuesday for an on-record meeting about plans for his transition and upcoming administration.

The far-ranging discussion, which began with the president-elect lamenting the New York Times for it’s “unfair” coverage of his campaign and insisting he’d like to improve his relationship with the paper to “make his job easier,” also hit upon issues including Trump’s neo-Nazi supporters (“it’s not a group I want to energize”) and his relationship with Republican leaders (“right now, they’re in love with me”).

But the most pressing concern that arose over the meeting involved potential conflicts of interest arising from Trump’s unprecedented business investments in the United States and across the globe. During the campaign, Trump promised to hand off his business to his children in a pseudo-“blind trust,” but in the days since his election it’s become clear the president-elect has no plans to detach himself from his personal interests.

1. Why TF didn't the media talk about this BEFORE the f*cking election?

In the final weeks, the NY times stepped up their game, but the cable TV news networks were completely negligent! They didn't talk about the gutting of the voting rights act, voter suppression, and they didn't talk about Trump's massive conflicts (except for Joy Reid and the evening anchors on MSNBC). Now they bring this stuff up en masse, when there's nothing anyone can do. I'm trying so hard to accept these results, but it's really hard to as the scope of the clusterfuck continues to expand.

Did Don Cornholione finish that with an, "unless you make me" or was it implied?
