The most serious political problem facing the Trump administration and the Trump White House is the Trump Organization, and the question is whether Donald Trump really knows this yet deep in his bones. He’s getting there, I think. In the eye-opening New York Times group interview, the president-elect does something very striking you almost never see leaders do: He muses aloud about the issue. He knows it’s trouble and he doesn’t really know what to do about it. He can’t help thinking aloud even in front of people he deems hostile to him because it’s haunting him. After all, he never truly thought he was going to win this thing—and he believed it was bad luck even to plan for it—and so he’s two months away from the swearing-in with a government to build from the ground up and the issue of what to do about a complex business he built over many decades that did not expect he was going to have to move away from.
