WNU,
Yes, of course and Trumps know that, but why this was done? There is a little bit time between now and January 2021 the 15th. Only God knows what will happens.

He seems to be an okay guy, but I fail to see what he brings to the table. What does he know about supply chain, manufacturing and engineering?
I bet he knows about donating and bundling for the right people.

What 'safe harbor day' is and why it's bad news for Trump
