Still no one has explained what supposedly nefarious ties to DB Clayton has.[/quote]

Not necessarily nefarious but likely a conflict of interest.      Clayton counted Deutsche Bank as a client and defended them in a massive Russian money-laundering scandal. “There is a criminal investigation into Deutsche Bank occurring in SDNY,” Stedman said, adding: “Deutsche Bank is Trump's lender.”

And you should be able to find many articles about Trump and DB.     "Donald Trump’s relationship with Deutsche Bank has lasted longer than any of his marriages and is cloaked in more secrecy."

And the easy answer is that he would recuse himself from cases where he has a conflict of interest.[/quote]

Then let's just skip him over. How many hours of his life has Trump wasted deriding Jeff Sessions? Next month he is traveling to Jeff Sessions hometown in Alabama to campaign against him. And he still tweets about him. Trump doesn't need this kind of distraction-- he has more important things to do. Just pick someone who don't have a conflict of interest. [/quote]

Anyone who had experience in the private sector will have some conflicts.  Even someone from government could.

[b]If you look to nominate someone without any conflicts on any potential cases[/b], you are likely to find someone who hasn’t practiced in the area and is unqualified.[/quote]

Big difference between "someone with no conflicts of interest on any case" and "big conflict of interest on several very prominent cases of national importance, appointed by someone with big conflict of interest" [/quote]
