6. Then change the law...

Presidents are not prohibited from holding or trading stocks while in office, but they are required to report their transactions.

Trump’s annual financial disclosure is expected to come out later this year.

The latest filings only required Trump to disclose transactions of securities above $1,000. The forms also specified that filers do not need to disclose certain financial assets, such as mutual funds or other investment funds, U.S. Treasury bonds and property.

Make trading ILLEGAL for ALL politicians while you're at it.
