Donald Trump became the President-elect following the elections of the United States of America of 2016. Since then, many conflicts of interest (unprecedented for a US President-elect) have arisen due to his vast business holdings.[1][2][3] Trump has stated that he will resolve his conflicts of interest, but not given any specifics as to how.[4][5]
