Mr. Trump doesn't sign Ethics forms

[VitaMan]

Mr. Trump has not signed the Ethics forms done when there is a new occupant coming into the White House. Normally these are completed in September and October to start the transition of power..


This guy.......

Try making a facial expression like this. If you can you will understand what the mindset of Mr. Trump is.

But nobody knows who will win until early November, if we're lucky

Trumpf signing ethics forms would be like perjury or making false claims.
No surprise he hasn't signed.

The process is started before the election. But I am not an expert on transitions. Perhaps you could locate an academic paper that discusses it in detail ?


He still has not signed them.

I’m guessing it has something to do with this. Money

"Trump has yet to sign the ethics agreement required for the presidential transition, allowing him to raise unlimited amounts of money from unknown donors to pay for the staff, travel, and office space involved in preparing to take over the government," the group wrote.

Or this, Trump's failure to submit the required ethics pledge, stating that he will avoid conflicts of interest, has also meant that he has not disclosed who is funding his transition process.

Or this, Trump has named nearly all his choices for his future Cabinet positions, including those that will require Senate confirmations. Some of the president-elect's more contentious picks, such as former Fox News host Pete Hegseth for defense secretary and former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence, have already raised concerns even without a formal vetting process.

The delay in signing the transition documents may mean senators have to vote on Trump's Cabinet picks without federal background checks, The Associated Press reported.

Your claim, not mine to research. FWIW: He has not taken transition monies either, nor will he.

Money ain't much of a thing for multiple multi-billionaires. I think they got the scratch, with no strings attached. Or ya got to spend some money to make some money...

Article 2 of The Constitution does not mention “signing ethics documents”.

So your beef is ... irrelevant to this conversation.

Trump is doing everything he can to protect his criminality and the backgrounds of his appointees. He isn't signing the ethics forms - which is a sign of transparency at very least - for the same reason he won't release his taxes.

He's a fraud.

And you're outta line, sport.
