Trey Gowdy Shuts Liberal America Up With Brutal Announcement In the past few months, the Republican Party has reluctantly put their support behind Donald Trump. Now Sen. Tom Cotton and Rep. Trey Gowdy have announced that House and Senate committees will indeed be keeping close tabs on Trumps new governmentnot because they dont trust him, but because they want to help rebalance the power between the three branches of government. Critics of the Trump family are worried their many businesses will introduce many conflicts of interestand potential corruption of the government. But Trump has made it clear he intends to keep the two separate, and the Republican Party has agreed the businesses arent a deal-breaker. This week, Paul Ryan was asked about potential conflicts of interest, and offered the following response: This is not what Im concerned about in Congress. I have every bit of confidence hes going to get himself right with moving from being the business guy that he is to the president hes going to becomeWhat were seeing is what everybody was hoping to see, which is this is gonna be a business guy who becomes president whos just gonna focus on getting the job done and fixing this countrys big problems. Im excited. Aside from Ryan and Rep. Trey Gowdy, people have been relatively silent on the matter. Some believe Gowdy could be positioning himself for a future president, but given the way he handled the Clinton case, were okay with him taking on larger roles.
