More on whore Corker....
Senator Bob Corker owed $120.5M when he was elected; now he's worth $69M
Senator Bob Corker got a rush of progressive love when he
dissed Donald Trump in public, then fell from grace when he flipflopped on blocking the tax-bill after his colleagues modified it to personally give him millions -- but that guy was always dirty as hell.
He's a mini-Trump himself, a sleazy property developer whose business was between $24.2M and $120.5M in debt when he took office in 2007; a decade later, he's the fourth wealthiest senator, with a net worth of $69M.
Corker claims it's all a misunderstanding. Those debts were someone else's, sold off with his business interests when he entered the Senate. All that money he made was the happy result of some lucky trades made in an arm's length "Separately Managed Account" which is like a blind trust, except it's not blind and can benefit from the lax rules regarding insider trading by Senators and Members of Congress who get to make trades based on their knowledge of upcoming legislation.
Boy oh boy, does Corker ever trade! In the first 7 months he was in office, he made over 1,200 trades, almost all of them resulting in profits from buying stocks that shot up shortly after he bought them. Corker's four-a-day trade habit makes him a prolific day trader with a minor hobby serving as a US Senator.
and in 2001, he made a killing in the market investing in DEFENSE STOCKS before 911.....
