Schiff calling for insider trading investigations

[berg80]

Dotard sent out a social media post today, with the Dow down 300 points, saying vaguely "he thinks" China wants to do a deal. Now the Dow is up 650. Schiff is right, this needs to be looked in to. Especially with trump's record of criminality as well as consorting with criminals.

Well you've already discounted his lies, his insurrection, and his criminal convictions, so going along with a little stock market manipulation must seem like puppy shit to the amoral and utter corrupt Trump voters.

Lol does this guy do anything that isnt partisan theater?

It's not an "if" he's guilty of insider trading.
As usual he provides all the evidence of guilt his accusers will ever need.

A video clip of U.S. President Donald Trump openly boasting about enriching his billionaire friends is drawing outrage as the administration faces growing scrutiny for possible market manipulation and insider trading in the aftermath of his partial tariff pause.

"He made two-and-a-half billion today," Trump said in the Oval Office on Wednesday, just hours after announcing the pause, "and he made $900 million."

"That's not bad," the president added.

better trade deals will be made with the US for the US .. get used to the idea ..

I certainly have no problem with better trade deals, but this certainly was not the way to go about it. You never heard me gripe about the trade deals he made with Canada and Mexico, though he now says they were made by idiots. His deals, signed by him, so I guess he should know.

but this certainly was not the way to go about it.

Get elected as POTUS and show us the way to go about it. Pardon my skepticism of your qualifications to make an educated determination.

This country was funded exclusively on tariffs for nearly a hundred years prior to the civil war.

Are you pissed, just because I agree with the vast majority of economists, and as a business grad, myself, I knew the markets in this country and around the world would totally freak out, findinding out deals with the US weren't worth the paper printed on, even if he wrote and signed the original paper.

Your concern seems disingenuous. As the exact steps you are protesting have been used throughout the history of the country. Indeed, your hero, dementia Joe used them himself. Where was your protest under his admin or Obama's or W's or Clinton's? As for me be "pissed" I am not one of the TDS inflicted on this board that protest the current admin for doing exactly what you all had no problem with previously. Looks like you're projecting.

Whether it's a happy byproduct, or a Machiavellian master stroke, by way of the tariff pause, Trump has the opposition calling for insider trading investigations. Go DOGE!

For once i agree with schiff! I think we need to start with ALL members of congress and work our way up to ALL president's.


I'm game for that.

Schiff is such a pot-stirring tool for the Democrats. He would have to produce evidence of private information being used for financial gain and that would be hard to do given that Trump's comment was publicly made. Of course, we all know how he works. Lying face says he has the evidence but never produces it.

/----/ How can Schytface be so tone-deaf?

Perhaps the pie faced numbskull should release all his Russia collusion evidence he told America he has.

Yes, start with Schiff and Pelosi.

the deals are being hashed out .. that's why there is a pause for 90 days on the tariffs for all countries that have reached out to the admin ... I expect it will take weeks to start getting more deals made with those that have expressed they are willing .. and more pauses may be in the future for countries willing to make a deal .. when that happens you and your pals will shout that Trump caved .. its just a simple fact ..MAGA !

Yeah, but that’s not what actually happened. He paused in on every country other than China.

He was spooked by the markets and can’t admit it. You believe the cover story though, because it’s a cult.

You’re in a cult. You believe whatever Trump says no matter how stupid it makes you look.

You're a liar. He didn't pause on EVERY OTHER country but China. He paused on those that returned to the negotiation table. Your stupid bias becomes more evident with each disingenuous post. Try telling the truth. Yeah, but------
