"Conflict of interest" is practically the man's middle name. Not only does he not avoid them, he seems to actively seek them out.

You probably shouldn't drink anything while reading this.

A nitpick.

He didn't actually say "nepotism is a beautiful thing".

While I absolutely do not agree with Trump or his family and what they are doing, I hate to see when people, with a subtle twist change the meanings of what people say.

Trump has done enough to fuel negative press for decades. We don't need to make stuff up.

It doesn't say he said that. The quotes are only around "beautiful thing."

Here's the actual quote: "Is that nepotism? Absolutely. Is that also a beautiful thing? Absolutely. Family business is a beautiful thing."

I think the description is reasonable, and they make it abundantly clear that the first two words are a paraphrase.

I'm pretty sure there's no conflict of interest. He has only one.
