Firstly the clinton foundation is very different from Trump's personal net worth, so it's apples and oranges. Secondly I am absolutely certain that she wouldn't have run the foundation while president. LOL.
I think that it's completely unreasonable for Trump to have to do the same thing as prior presidents (liquidate all investments, let a blind trust reinvest them unknown assest) given the nature of his wealth, but on the other hand I think letting his sons run them is inadequate unless he's planning on never talking to them. It should be run by a third party he has no contact with, and probably other measures as well.
But also Trump's pocket stuffing is a lesser, if distasteful, issue to the more pressing concerns.
