The public trust which President-elect Trump sought and is accepting requires that he make sacrifices to minimize conflicts between his personal and family interests on the one hand, and those of the nation on the other.

Last week, Trump’s two adult sons launched a new charity, the “Opening Day Foundation.” “Opening Day” seems to carry two meanings in this foundation. It’s a reference to the first day of hunting season, but also to their father’s first full day as president, for the charity’s banquet was scheduled for Jan. 21, the day after Trump is sworn in as America’s 45th president.
