If you're a Trump supporter, you can no longer call out inside trading, because this is exactly what Trump is doing.

Trump’s More Than 3,700 Trades Astonish Wall Street Insiders​

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosures show that he or his investment advisers made more than 3,700 trades in the first quarter, a flurry totaling tens of millions of dollars and involving major companies that have dealings with his administration.

The transactions, spelled out in more than 100 pages of documents filed Thursday with the US Office of Government Ethics, list purchases and sales in broad ranges, making it hard to calculate an exact value. But the volume of trading — more than 40 per day over a three-month period — stands out as much as the potential dollar value.

You know that Trump's blind trust can still make stock trades don't you?

Can a Blind Trust Still Make Stock Trades?

Yes — a blind trust can still make stock trades. In fact, one of the defining features of a blind trust is that the trustee has full authority to buy, sell, or hold stocks and other investments without the grantor’s knowledge or consent.

You fail again.

A true qualified blind trust does let the independent trustee trade stocks freely without the president knowing—that’s correct.

The issue is President Trump doesn’t have one. His assets are in a family-controlled revocable trust (run by his sons), not an OGE-certified independent blind trust. That’s why his Q1 2026 disclosure showed 3,600+ individual stock trades and why it breaks decades of precedent used by every other modern president. Ethics experts have said this setup since 2016 doesn’t eliminate conflicts the same way a real blind trust does.

The most corrupt presidency in our history. Trump has done one thing, though, that I never thought possible, made me think better of Richard Nixon!

Advisers not Trump. Trump has a full time job.
Trumps assets and incomes are tied up in a trust except presidents normal incomes.
