Why should your senator, for example, care that you want to complain about, or to, the president? I'd say the employees of his hotels are just as relevant as the "other government representation" are to these kind of questions.
Of course, if the president divested himself of his business interests and they had nothing even tangentially to do with him, you might have a point. But he hasn't.
Didn't he step aside and is now having his kids and executives run his businesses?
If he didn't, do you have the article that shows it?
If his family still owns the businesses, and he still knows exactly what the company owns it makes no difference whether he resigns or not, the business should be sold and the money (assuming he's not actually a bankrupt with a huge debt to banks in Russia) placed in a blind trust.
Trumps a shyster

I think you've identified the problem right there. I assume that most of his living comes from licensing and everything he actually 'owns' is propped up with huge debts to dozens if not hundreds of different banks and private lenders.
One has to assume there are sketchy reasons for his refusal to release his tax returns and sell businesses. I think it's more that he actually can't than it is that he just doesn't want to.
Most countries make references to Liberty and Constitution, most of them then ignore those references just as completely as the US has done for most of its history.
That's not actually an accurate description of the relationship between the United States and its constitution over history.

Do you have the article that tells you how "tangentially" isn't "run his businesses"?

So this is the First Lady of the United States appearing on the cover of Vanity Fair (you guessed it) Mexico eating a bowl of diamond jewelry. This was released yesterday. The word humility does not exist for these people.

So the guy that Trump has referred to, Gregg Phillips, as having proof of voter fraud, was on CNN tonight. He sounds about as convincing as someone saying man never landed on the moon. It's is insane how prone to conspiracy theories Trump is.
I looked for the clip on YouTube, couldn't find it, it's on CNN site.
But, here is another one, same idea, from earlier today maybe.
Reports on twitter that people who currently hold valid green cards from the banned immigration countries are not being allowed back into the USA.
They are advising if you hold a green card and are from one of those countries not to leave the US because US border guards won't let you back in.
The US has become a smaller, meaner place (along with the UK earlier this year) I hate it when my basic assumption that humans are basically stupid ######bags is once again proved right.

Nothing really fake about it, the executive order signed by Trump today expressly forbids the entry of any foreign national from a banned country from entering the USA unless they have a diplomatic visa or a NATO visa for 90 days after he signed the order. The wording of the order claims this 90 day window will temporarily alleviate the investigative burden.
