lead the country. this is a chance, aides say, for them to share ideas and talk about things and maybe not a cabinet post, but they leave open the door for that possible ty. in addition to that, trump settled the three lawsuits to trump university. the $25 million will be distributed to the former students. ther i the timing is notable. one of the cases is supposed to advance later this month. and this is sort of clearing the decks before he moves in to the white house. unusual for trump to settle. that is not his typical way of handling business. this takes this issue where there's been so much criticism off the table. another unexpected thing happened when his vice president-elect, the man he asked to run the transition,
