Donald Trump is putting campaign finance norms to the test, according to ethics experts.

The former president announced a new Trump -branded gold watch this week .

It's just the latest in a wide range of products the former president has promoted throughout his political career.

Trump has started selling sneakers, perfumes, digital trading cards and currencies, Bibles , coins with his face on them, and more.

“But if it becomes an egregious problem, and we do eventually succeed in changing the nature of the FEC , then I would expect this to be addressed by the FEC ,” he stated. “Mixing private, personal gain with public office, and one’s campaign for public office, just poses a very, very serious conflict of interest, and when you have those types of conflict of interest, official decisions and official actions are often based on private gain rather than the public interest and merit.”.
