That is a mischaracterization of what it is. If this were not the


head of the Trump Organization who had not divested himself of his interests, and who basically makes his family, which is equally tied to the business, his closest advisors, I might be less adamant about the need for this disclosure. The need is clear on its face, and Congress is well within its Constitutional authority in demanding additional transparency in this extraordinary case of potential conflicts and violation of the Emoluments Clause. That's all it is - a demand for transparency.
