The Trump Organization, in other words, is basically a family-owned, boutique business.

Conflicts surrounding the Trump Organization could be addressed by 1) turning over the company’s licensing deals to a third party (or selling them) and 2) selling 12 golf courses, two hotels, one commercial building, one resort, some retail and commercial space, and liquidating a handful of hotel and real estate partnerships.

As I’ve noted on multiple occasions since June, Trump’s children are likely to remain in regular contact with him while he’s president, and that stands to perpetuate his conflicts problem. The three eldest children are also involved in policy discussions as part of Trump’s White House transition team, and Trump is considering awarding his daughter Ivanka’s husband, Jared Kushner, a senior policy or advisory role in the White House.
