My Kingdom and more for anyone to realize that awarding yourself a government contract is not a conflict of interest. It's corruption. When the bank teller takes the money out of the cash drawer and puts it in his pocket that's not a conflict of interest either.

So if Zelenskyy had just emblazoned “tech support” on his black shirt and donned a MAGA hat, would that have been up to standard under White House dress code?

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy.
