It is pointed out that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who is less than a month away from taking office, is eager to make money by selling Christmas decorations and souvenirs named after him.
The Washington Post reported that Trump sells $195 sweaters and $85 ashtray, and that the profits from the sales belong to the Trump family-owned Trump Group, not to politics or philanthropy.
The newspaper pointed out that Trump is using the presidency to make personal money in a way that is unprecedented in modern history.
Trump has been selling goods with his name on them for a long time, but in this case, he is engaged in profit activities until just before his inauguration on January 20 next year.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, a Washington, D.C., non-profit organization, pointed out that it is "using the presidency to sell Trump products."
But Trump's transition team claimed he was the first president to see his net worth decline during his tenure as he pulled out of the multibillion-dollar real estate business to run for president and also gave up his presidential salary.
