Why aren't we hearing more about the "insider trading" of Donald Trump ?? [View all]
Could it be that almost all of the Congress and Senate is engaging in the illegal activity? Therefore, they cannot speak up on account of their own corruption?
Trump made over 3700 trades on the stock market in the last quarter. A totally ridiculous and seemingly impossible number. It was reported on for a day or two in the MSM but has faded from the scene.
Speaker Johnson made a public announcement that the Congress needed their insider trading information in order to live. The $174,000 annual salary is just not enough. I think he probably speaks for most of the Congress.
A few people, for example, AOC, has spoken out against these trades. But, for whatever reason, they cannot pass legislation to prohibit it? What would that reason be?
