19. What has that got to do with the Dodd-Frank legislation?

Mon Apr 18, 2016, 06:23 PM

Apr 2016

The legislation is what it is. It says what it says. He wrote it long before he retired from Congress, before he even had a chance to become a corporate shill.

Are you suggesting he is misrepresenting the very legislation he wrote? Why would he be so stupid as to do that, when the law is available online and any lies he told about it could be slapped down in literal seconds?

Or are you suggesting that he somehow magically was able to get back into the existing law and rewrite sections of the law without anyone noticing? Why would he do that if that was possible? To make Bernie Sanders look bad? Sanders doesn't need any help looking ill-informed, trust me.
