TDS: Trump’s Dell Scheme - Buy $5M in stock and pump it as President

[Meister]

Show me your evidence. Not allegations. Actual evidence.

The smoking guns in Trump’s new financial disclosure​

On March 11, President Trump took a tour of a manufacturing facility in Reading, Ohio, owned by Thermo Fisher Scientific, a medical supply company. During the tour, Trump lavished praise on Thermo Fisher which uses the facility to manufacture prescription drugs on a contract basis. “It’s a great honor being here. It’s a great company,” Trump said, appearing alongside CEO Marc Casper. “You have done a fantastic job and I’d like to congratulate you.”

Later, Trump asked another Thermo Fisher executive to share “some great information about this incredible company.” The executive talked about how Thermo Fisher is producing drugs for Merck and others at the facility. Trump then explicitly encouraged other pharmaceutical companies to contract with Thermo Fisher to “on-shore” more jobs. He claimed that some pharmaceutical companies were building their own U.S. manufacturing facilities but said “they can get here a lot faster by using this great company.”

Trump did not mention that, the same day of the tour, March 11, he purchased between $15,000 and $50,000 of Thermo Fisher stock. (Federal disclosure rules only require filers to list their transactions in broad ranges.) Trump did not publicly disclose the purchase until May 14. It was listed on page 38 of a 113-page document cataloging Trump’s stock purchases in 2026.

The smoking guns in Trump’s new financial disclosure

Trump publicly praised companies the same day he bought their stock.

It's a tossup as to whether this is the bigger story about trump's corruption or it's the $1.7B slush fund. BTW, GFY.

Deflections, nothing but deflections.


Trump: No corruption
The thousands of financial transactions, which cover the first three months of 2026, are all detailed in investment documents filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, totaling more than 100 pages.

Pelosi dodged the Office of Government Ethics by deflecting to her husband

In a way, that's the point. The corruption is out in the open and congressional R's refuse to do anything about it.

Mandatory Reporting: As a member of Congress, Pelosi is required to report her and her husband Paul Pelosi’s stock transactions within 45 days.

The disclosures reveal that Trump has been a highly active trader in 2026, executing thousands of transactions — many in individual stocks impacted by his administration’s policies. In response to criticism, a spokesperson for the Trump Organization claimed that the trades were completely separate from Trump’s official duties and managed by an independent outside financial advisor. “President Trump’s investment holdings are maintained exclusively through fully discretionary accounts independently managed by third-party financial institutions with sole and exclusive authority over all investment decisions,” the spokesperson said. “Trades are executed and portfolios are balanced through automated investment processes and systems administered by those institutions.”

The fact that Trump purchased stock in Thermo Fisher the same day that he toured its facility undercuts this claim. Further, the March 11 purchase of Thermo Fisher stock was marked “UNSOLICITED” in the document. An “unsolicited” trade is one that is not recommended by a broker, but initiated by the customer.

Deflecting again? Show the corruption, not what you might think is corruption.

Pelosi didn't dodge anything. Her husband's trades are publicly reported.

Trump = corruption

Nancy Pelosi has made over $100 MILLION in the stock market by feeding her stock trader husband insider information. But all of a sudden citygator is "concerned" about politician's stock trades because it involves Trump. Triggered again.

Only one of those 2 is president today. What crime was Pelosi charged with?

 

[theHawk]

Trump quietly bought up to $5 million in Dell shares in February-March, then publicly urged everyone to 'Go buy Dell'... pumping the stock 12% immediately after. The same man who spent years attacking Pelosi for stock trades is now doing it from the White House. This is textbook market manipulation by a sitting president using his platform for personal gain. The swamp wasn’t drained. It just wears a different tie now.

Made a cool $600,000 on one tweet. Nice.

So Trump tells people to buy the same stocks he is buying and your mad?

He helped make a lot of people richer then?

Have you any actual evidence of that...

I persume you have otherwise you would be making unfounded allegations...

Thing is Paul Pelosi has always been in venture capitalism... In a lot of cases he is playing with somebodies else's money...

Can I also point out that the accusation is $100m over two decades... If Paul Pelosi was really at it, it would be far higher in a shorter timeframe...

The main accusations made against Pauls are trades in Nivada and Tesla... He definitely was on the right side but he probably knows the people on the committee and knew what way they were likely to side...

Trump's are doing $100m in a week at times... What's more the trades are far more obvious, buying defence stocks days before a war... buying into companies that then get awarded Government contracts...

 

[CowboyTed]

Kind of takes away the whole 'Blind' Trust thing...

Thanks for admitting that Trump money isn't in a Blind Trust...

The stock goes up because people know Trump legislates favourably to companies he consider loyal to him..

 

[CowboyTed]

Yes, she's bad. Your argument seems to be that Trump's okay because others are doing it.

The argument is that he said he'd drain the swamp. He's not, he is the swamp.

More like a sewer

 

[CowboyTed]

Anyone with brain went big on tech stocks then
Why has congress ever passed a law banning govt officials from owning stocks? Why has this never been a issue for you before?

It was customary for Presidents to put their assets in a blind trust while they were in office.

Trump has not done that, every other president has done that before him.. It has been such a standard that no one thought it needed legislation... It is like releasing your taxes when running for office, every other presidential candidate did that except Trump as well...

Trump is the only one to do this...
The TRUST Act was introduced to congress in Jan last year to stop .
This bill requires a Member of Congress, as well as any spouse or dependent child of a Member, to place specified investments into a qualified blind trust (i.e., an arrangement in which certain financial holdings are placed in someone else's control to avoid a possible conflict of interest) until 180 days after the end of their tenure as a Member of Congress.

It has been buried by the majority.

Right he tells his broker to buy stock in a facility he is touring the next day...

That is corruption.. Straight out...

No actually not every president before him has. LBJ was the to ever do it and sure most have since

I know it’s hard for you to comprehend.


“then publicly urged everyone to 'Go buy Dell'... pumping the stock 12% immediately after”

So he publicly tells everyone to buy it, THEN it goes up 12%, and you’re mad?

You’d rather it go down and people lose money?

Trump's net worth has gone from $300 million to $6 BILLION in less than 18 months and you're complaining about $100 million in 40 years?????

You're truly deranged.

Dis you, jackass? Hunter puts his dad on the phone and you shit your drawers. Trump literally buys stock knowing he is going to pump it or give them business and you are "we should be happy". Your idiocy knows no bounds. You are a clown. A fool. A cuck.

Trump told the public to buy.

The Biden’s used insider info to enrich themselves.


You still having trouble seeing the difference, you absolute muppet?

Trump made 3700 stock trades tied to deals he was making. He literally gave business to them and promoted them from his position to enrich HIMSELF. Joe Biden got zero dollars from anything related to business dealings. You are a cult member worshipping a really fat dumb guy. You are a cuck.

 

[AntonToo]

What the commies are communicating is they can identify what they perceive as corruption, they just ignore corruption from other commies.

I understand.

That's an ironic comment considering you've just completely ignored a clearly corrupt act by Trump that this thread is about.

Do you ever happen to look in the mirror at all?
