I ' m not going to disagree with you , because I don ' t think there ' s anything to disagree with . We agree . That ' s why I ' m not criticizing Trump for having potential conflicts of interests . Likewise , I think everyone who gets into high office should be investigated for potential conflicts of interest , because that is something that ' s really important to know that ' s why every academic paper in pretty much every field has an entire section devoted to potential conflicts of interest if necessary , because they don ' t invalidate your positions , but are something that your reader should be well aware of while considering them . I ' m criticizing the flippant hypocrisy and the selective outrage and memory of the people complaining that Trump is getting flak while the Clintons get a free pass on this issue when that is not even remotely true .
