Trump U Redux: Trump Family Auctioning Off Summer Internship They Claim Is Worth $100K

Want to be hired by Donald Trump's business empire? It could cost you.

For the next week, you can bid on a summer internship with the Trump Organization, which carries an estimated value of $100,000, according to a listing on CharityBuzz.

The internship will give a well-heeled recipient the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to answer phones, run errands, and do administrative work for the Trump Organization starting in June.

The intern also gets 15-minute sit-downs with Trump and each of his oldest children, Ivanka, Eric, and Donald Jr., to "pick their brains about how to be successful in the real estate & business world."

I don't think he'll win, but I'm certain he thinks he will. How far back do we have to go for a historical precedent of someone actively involved in running a corporation getting elected as president? And even if he stepped down as CEO, his kids would still be heavily involved, so it wouldn't be like a blind trust.
