• Can (or should ethical concerns be separated from politics? Specifically, can there be a non-political evaluation of DJT's ethics?

• The theme of DJT’s inaugural address was “America first.” Is there anything ethically questionable about that assertion?

• What can we say about the ethics of DJT's Feb executive order aimed at eliminating environmental regulations, or the budget he proposed in March, or the April firing of 59 Tomahawk missiles on a Syrian airfield and the "mother of All Bombs' dropped on Afghanistan?

• Can (or should) ethical concerns be separated from politics? Specifically, can there be a non-political evaluation of DJT’s ethics?

• On what basis can an ethical analysis of the President (or anyone else) be made? In other words, how do we determine what is right or wrong?

• On the day after the election DJT called journalists “the most dishonest human beings on earth.” Upon what ethical system is DJT basing that statement?

• What in your opinion are the most ethical and unethical actions DJT has taken during his first 100 days in office?
