One more thing



And one more thing:

Quisquis huc accedes
Quod tibi horrendum videtur
Mihi amoenum est
Si dilectat maneas

What may seem horrible to you
Is fine for me
If you like it stay
If it bores you go
I couldn’t care less.

Great business in order to fully focus on running the country in order to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! While I am not mandated to . . .

do this under the law, I feel it is visually important, as President, to in no way have a conflict of interest with my various businesses. . .


. . . The Presidency is a far more important task!

Wow, Donald. Really? Or is it just all about the visuals?
