The whole fact that you can pay 1 M to dine with a president is troubling. I don't know your laws but isn't this unlawful?

I have been through many compliance training and all they say is not to accept large gifts or expensive dinners and now this? Are laws in this country applied selectively on who's on the receiving side?

It's unlawful. The president is not following the law

Seriously, they tell us one thing then they do this action that's completely opposite.

Those HR ethical and conflict of interest trainings only apply to us while all the executives are excused and get benefit to look other way.
