Interesting, right?
They’re “ chips off the old block”.
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree “...

Relevant passage: “ Mr. Trump’s three children who were officers of the foundation — Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump — were ordered to undergo mandatory training to ensure they do not engage in similar misconduct in the future.On Tuesday, the attorney general’s office confirmed the children had undergone the training.”
Why is Trump, who claims to care about corruption, still employing Ivanka in government and Don Jr./Eric at the Trump Organization if they can’t even be trusted to ethically run a charity?

Playing devil’s advocate, I wonder how much input they had as officers of the charity or were they mainly just names and trusted other employees to do the day to day things.
Thanks for finding another source.

Why would training now excuse their previous oversight of corruption and unethical behavior? Shouldn’t they have been professional enough to be aware of it before agreeing to be officers?DSamuels wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 1:32 pmBut now they have been trained, so everything’s good, right?Francee89 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 1:24 pmA different source: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/10/nyre ... neral.htmlDSamuels wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 1:15 pm I see you took my advice.

Trump has previously tweeted “leadership: Whatever happens, you're responsible. If it doesn't happen, you're responsible”. Following that sentiment, they’re responsible for the work of the people they delegated it to, if that’s the case.
His children can’t be trusted to ethically, properly run a charity, it seems quite odd that Trump, who claims to care about corruption, would continue to employ them in a high powered government role and as senior heads of a business. Unless he...doesn’t actually care about corruption.

Time magazine, New York Times, Washington Post, BBC, Minneapolis Star Tribune, USA Today, LA Times, etc. all rated as accurate, factual.
I’m a moderate. I used to be a Republican.
I bet a lot of others have reported about the Trump offspring too.
The Trump’s legacy is so well known.

Oh, yeah. They’re now “alright”, I’m sure. Tell me, would you trust a child molester around your kids because he was “rehabilitated” in prison?

So you’re comparing what they did, perhaps unknowingly, with child molestation? Seriously?

“Perhaps unknowningly”? Let’s pretend that’s the case - are ignorance of the rules and ethical practices any excuse for breaking them?DSamuels wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 4:18 pm So you’re comparing what they did, perhaps unknowingly, with child molestation? Seriously?

If the only options here are that Ivanka is corrupt or incompetent, and Trump claims to be against both, why is it acceptable she still has a job in government, which has considerably higher stakes for lots more people than their unscrupulous charity ever did?
