The White House says it's just politics and that they're committed to being highly ethical, despite the fact that, as early as January, lobbyists were being hired to work on the very issues they lobbied for. Trump has the authority to issue waivers on his own directive to prevent this very scenario, making it more lip service than commitment to end the revolving door of lobbyists working in the government. They just want more time to deal to challenge legality of this request to find how many lobbyists are working for Trump. I'm sure there's nothing to hide based on their response...

Is anyone on the Trump team concerned about timing, optics--appearances??
