Donald Trump calmed the proletariat to give GOP lawmakers time to sell their shares

[Denizen]

Trump associates were given coronavirus information ahead of the public allowing them to profit.

GOP got an early heads-up on the gravity of the coronavirus crisis while Trump fed the proletariat with mind-calming bullshit to allow the GOP lawmakers to sell their shares before the proletariat discovered how serious the coronavirus was.

If this was a deliberate act by Donald Trump, and if Trump, his family, GOP lawmakers, and Trump associates profited from an early heads up by being able to sell before the market crashed Donald Trump should be impeached.

It should be determined how many GOP lawmakers and Trump associates profited from the early warning and they should be brought to justice.

Burr, Loeffler sold stocks ahead of coronavirus market crash?

WASHINGTON —Two reports on Thursday revealed that Republican Sens. Richard Burr, N.C., and Kelly Loeffler, Ga., sold off significant amounts in stocks shortly before financial markets plunged because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The senators are reported to have had knowledge about the spread of coronavirus ahead of their sales.
ProPublica reported that Burr, who chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee, dumped somewhere between $628,000 and $1.72 million of stocks, much of which came from the hospitality industry. The sales were made in 33 separate transactions on Feb. 13. Records of the transactions are available through the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Just days before, Burr penned a Fox News op-ed with Sen. Lamar Alexander, writing that the country was "better prepared than ever before to face emerging public health threats."
And, according to NPR's Thursday reporting, a couple weeks later, on Feb. 27, Burr informed a gathering at a luncheon that the coronavirus is "much more aggressive in its transmission than anything that we have seen in recent history," at a time when President Donald Trump was still responding to the disease's spread in what some have described as an overly optimistic manner.

Did I miss your posts about Hillary selling our uranium to Russia for $145 milllion?


To your point, the politicians of both sides go to Washington to do good, and wind up making good.

Insider trading is actually one of their perqs.


If you ever get around to reading...

Trump is the first one who actually gave up wealth to become President.

1. Schweizer points out that if you're an elected official and you sit on an important committee, you are allowed to trade on the information that comes to you or even results from your committee-related decisions. It stands to reason that if you're on the banking committee, you probably trade bank stocks, playing it both long and short. If you're a staffer, you may accumulate sensitive information and sell it to hedge funds. A lot of careerists trade on non-public information.
2. Nancy Pelosi, the 60th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives with an estimated net worth of $58 million, bought 5,000 shares of V (Visa) at the privileged IPO price $44. This trade showed a profit immediately and the shares went up to about $88 in a matter of days. However, Pelosi worked on major legislation that if it had not been killed in the body she led, would have had a strong negative affect on the price right at that time. The rest of us can't do it because we're subject to strict conflict of interest rules, unlike lawmakers. Plus, we're not invited to participate in IPOs until after the price is run up.
3. Congressmen are big winners in the stock market. They cultivate companies in their loyalty structure from whom they get insider information often at the committee level. There are many ways they get rich while serving constituents, especially if you know what big deal Warren Buffett will do and when. Many names are given in this book of successful inside information operators within Congress.
4. The Pay-to-Play regime and the flow of insider information can be used by even the most novice traders using an online brokerage account. One big story is how Congressman Spensor Bachus used a private meeting with Fed Chair Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Paulson. Bachus was in the role of Ranking Member on the House Financial Services Committee. He used the dire information presented to him in this meeting to bet heavily that the market would go down, using option trades. Bachus, working with Bernanke and Paulson from July 2008 to November 2008, scalped $50K out of the falling market. The book has lots of war stories like that.
5. …the political class is so intelligent that they--get this!--compel CEOs to let them buy lucrative shares in IPOs at very low prices in exchange for passing favorable legislation for those CEOs! And all the while, the stupid idiot people of America--that would be you and me who have a 9 to 5 job, worship God and like to go to a ballgame every now and then--just carry on with their ignorance-is-bliss lives while the political class keeps enriching their wealth, power and influence in this way!! Genius...simply genius!

The people who conducted this insider trading must be held to the most severe penalties applicable. Congress members who did it should be stripped of office.

 

[Cellblock2429]

While it is stupid to blame Trump, it is equally stupid not to be pissed that this is happening. The Dems did it as well,

Dianne Feinstein, 3 Senate colleagues sold off stocks before coronavirus crash: reports

Had it only been a Dem you people wold have been leading the crowd with the torches...but since you beloved Repubs did it also you have to be silent as church mice

/——/ Both sides are guilty, you girlie man.

Agreed but nothing will happen. We are a banana republic now.

Trump'd need a Roosevelt-style life-time presidency to turn it around.

and so far you have proven me correct. you will not condemn these actions because your side did them also

Had it just been the Dems you would have been calling for a firing squad.

This is a stretch, even for the AP.
