THE MORE TIED-UP THE BETTER:

Lawsuits over Trump business threaten to tie up presidency (CHAD DAY and BERNARD CONDON, 1/10/17, Associated Press)

Only a handful of presidents have undergone legal depositions during their terms, and even fewer have become embroiled in private lawsuits. Trump is poised to join that small club.

Just last week, the president-elect sat for a deposition in a lawsuit involving his Washington hotel , and he is still tied up in legal disputes that are to proceed after Inauguration Day. Trump is also under investigation by the New York attorney general over whether he used his charity for personal benefit.

Those are only some of the pending matters.
