(22,086 posts)1. I'm surprised Thom Hartmann said there was no way to trace
who made the almost $200 million with the bit coins and stock market falling last week.
Was looking forward to a Senate investigation finding the trumps guilty of insider trading.

But we all know that the only reason TFG is in this at all is to make as much money as possible. The only reason he ran at all is because all his previous attempts at business failed so he tried soliciting campaign donations. So voters thought he deserved to be in charge of the largest economy in the world??

no investigation while Rs are in control.
