Outsider, I don't like corrupt politicians who profit from their position, whether or not that hurts the general public, though it often does. That corruption, of course, includes accepting campaign assistance from persons or corporations in cases where there is an expectation of payback. Unfortunately that includes almost all cases, and I don't exempt either major party from this corruption. The right to petition the government doesn't include any right to buy influence in return for money or favors (emoluments). For that reason alone, Trump's personal finances and wealth are things the public needs to know, because those debts and wealth may sway the entire nation's relations with other nations in ways harmful to the US people as a whole. Corruption is ethically and morally wrong, and economically harmful.
