The Oval Office meeting convened by President Trump aimed to resolve merger issues between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, yet it underscored a significant conflict of interest. Trump's family, being business partners with LIV Golf, raises concerns about using presidential power for personal gain. Former Justice Department officials argue this illustrates a troubling trend of conflicts that are more pronounced than during any previous presidency, particularly given Trump's expanded array of business interests that often necessitate regulatory approval or oversight.
Mr. Trump was pushing a merger that relates to his own family's financial interest, a brazen conflict of interest that has played out unusually frequently in recent times.
The formal gathering to discuss the merger of PGA Tour and LIV Golf reflects not just negotiations but also the troubling entanglement of personal gain and political power.
