Former President Donald Trump will continue to grow his business empire if elected president, a legal expert has said.
Eric Chaffee, a law professor and white-collar crime expert at Case Western Reserve University in Ohio, told Newsweek that the Republican nominee would use the White House to expand his business, just as he did during his first presidential term.
“Throughout his career, Donald Trump has relentlessly pursued the growth of his business empire,” Chaffee said. “His pursuit of wealth did not stop during his first administration, despite suggesting that he would divest his holdings to avoid conflicts of interests.”
Chaffee said Trump would use the opportunity, even though he has been banned from the New York property business for three years.
