Tommy Tuberville wants to keep breaking the rules around trading stocks
Sen. Tommy Tuberville, who violated stock-trading rules 132 times last year, says it's 'ridiculous' to ban lawmakers from trading stocks
Sen. Tommy Tuberville on Wednesday rejected proposals to ban members of Congress from trading stocks, calling the idea "ridiculous."
"They might as well start sending robots up here," the Alabama Republican told The Independent's Eric Michael Garcia. "You can't do anything."
"I think it would really cut back on the amount of people that would want to come up here and serve, I really do," Tuberville added. "We don't need that."
Tuberville's comments come as several of his colleagues, both Republicans and Democrats, have introduced a slew of proposals to ban lawmakers from trading stocks, representing a bipartisan push to uproot potential conflicts of interest and violations of stock trading rules in Congress.

Not only does he not follow the rules as they currently exist but of course he wants to keep using the information he gets to make money.
