Blah blah - groan - piss - moan

If this whack-o presidunce is in undeniable violation of laws regarding his non-distancing from his business empire - WHEN does someone call him on it? He shouldn't be writing EOs or even sitting in the oval office, but all I hear is whimpering and discontent.

There was also a rumor about another hotel in DC filing because they can claim they are losing business to Trump's hotel, thus being harmed and therefore having standing for the suit.
