Donald Trump’s business ventures, operating largely through licensing agreements, continue to flourish despite his presidential candidacy. These ventures, ranging from gold sneakers to a new fragrance and even a cryptocurrency platform, raise significant ethical concerns, particularly given their potential to attract foreign investment and influence. Unlike his first term, the Trump Organization’s ethics plan is expected to be significantly weaker, allowing for greater exploitation of his presidency for profit.

Last week was undeniably bad for Donald Trump, but it seems that this week has the potential to be even worse.
