	Description:		President-elect Donald Trump is packing his administration with incredibly wealthy businesspeople. His picks make up what could be the wealthiest government in U.S. history – worth about $340 billion. Watchdog groups are sounding the alarm, saying the business interests of many of these powerful picks are at odds with what's best for the American people. Trump himself is again bringing financial conflicts into office, too. But this time, there are fewer guardrails to prevent abuses of power for his financial gain. Meanwhile, new Trump organization business deals are on the horizon. We discuss why this matter for the American people, and if our government can protect itself from financial conflicts at its highest levels of power. Want to support 1A?
