President Donald Trump and Chancellor Finis Valorum, walking the fine line of business and politics

The Trump family and the Valorum family are both prominent business and politics families, owning a vast family business and having one member being a head of state. In the case of Finis Valorum, he got into a scandal when he used his position as the head of state to benefit his family's business. In order for Donald Trump to avoid such ethics scandals, he needs to not show favoritism to his family's business.

Star Wars is written to be very realistic.

In my opinion yourheadline comes close to defining the real agenda. The fine line between politics and business. Ever see a fine line in the sand? Walk to either side of it and the line remains. Walk down the middle of it and the line disappears. That is what Trump is all about, walking down the middle of the line so it disappears from view entirely. That is why he is 'dragging his feet on his taxes and why he is dragging his feet on divesting from his business. He is in the process of turning over government to the business world.

There are some who say that the United States is already a corporation. This may be the stroke to lift that veil of pretend democracy and install Donald Trump, not as the president of the United States but rather the CEO of the Corporation of the United States.

Donald Trump is never alone in the White House. The press is with him 60 60 24 7 365. If he does anything unethical or receives an emolument, he would have to immediately correct it.

Thats realistic....in some way for almost every president in American history.. You dont get to be president without money and clout, either your own or someone elses propping you up. Same result.

(((sigh)))

Now he's fictional character out of Star Wars... Well, that's one that wasn't used on Obama that I can recall...so it's got that going for it. But that's about it.

It's going to be a long, if this is any example, 8 years...
