… while senate works on antitrust legislation.
Conflicts of Interest reign in communist party.
Odd how one has to read about that in foreign news.

How is his daughters' employment relevant to his political agenda? They are independent adults.

Hmmm...
Just really stupid, or attempting to be funny?

The father and his connections get them the right jobs with the right people. Grow up.

He can't.
It is inconceivable to liberals that bribes get paid in lots of ways.
But let some intrepid reporter claim President Trump had a distant relative that might, could, maybe got a job due to his position and all he'll would break loose.

So you have no problem with Biden’s crack head, STD infected son son getting millions from Ukraine and China, because they are independent adults after all?
I think you need to research the antonym of the term “independent” in the context of independence in business relationships.

Uh oh. Now you've done it. :o
Honestly, it shouldn't matter if there is no nepotism involved, you know, like how Biden never bestowed any favoritism on his fine, upstanding businessman son.
But now if it were a Trump relative, then it would be huuuuuuugely important and every aspect would need to be investigated and exposed.

You forgot the green font.

think about all the "facts" that would be created...

I did not forget the green font. The second part was humor, but legitimately, calling this out is stupidity.
There is no accusation of nepotism, there is no accusation of improper benefits. There is just …jealousy?… that they work at companies that tend to be very liberal and tend to pay very high wages.
Do you care where Ted Cruz’s children work? Desantis? George Bush? No, so who cares where his children work.
It’s childish to care about this unless you can show there is anything unethical or immoral about it. It is more teen gossip, talking about people. It reminds me of the old saying - great men discuss ideas, moderate men discuss events, little men talk about people.

Apparently spell check tricked you. I am sure you meant to type "They are both in Depends.

They aren’t warehouse crew. They are a lobbyist and marketing manager. Positions of interest in seeing the monopolies stay monopolies. Yes there is a conflict of interest or at least, as Lehto would say, “the appearance of impropriety”.

There is an opportunity for impropriety. But even in the strictest companies where such things are monitored, adult children are not part of it. I have worked for one of the Big 4 accounting firms and can affirm that partners there live under a microscope and even employees to a lesser extent. Every financial transaction is evaluated for ethics and every relationship is tracked. But adult children who are not dependent are outside that bubble.
These are independent adults and unless someone can show collusion between them and their father, they are legally and ethically permitted to lobby for whatever they want. You have no problem with Donald Jr lobbying for various things, what is the difference?

The difference would have been if Trump were working on legislation that would oppose what his son was lobbying for.

So if they're coordinated it's ok, but if they're working against each other, it's bad?

I didn’t say that at all. The implication in my mind is that his kids can have great influence on him to tweak the bill, put loopholes in it, and so on, until it satisfies the tech giants that it won’t really do anything to hurt their monopoly.
