Queens Congressman Gregory Meeks argued today that, even though House
Democrats lack the power to subpoena President-elect Donald Trump over
his potential conflicts of interest, they can and should use their posts
to pressure him to divulge information about his companies’ dealings.
Last week, the New York Times asked Trump in a sit-down interview at their office about
his mixing of personal financial interests with his presidency, citing
the fact that he temporarily halted his transition work to meet with three Indian business partners,
exerted pressure on British and Argentinian politicians to accommodate
his business concerns in their nations and gathered diplomats at his new
hotel in Washington D.C. The incoming commander-in-chief brushed off
the concern, claiming falsely that the “president can’t have a conflict
of interest.”
