How did Soros garner so much influence with Trump? his man Bessent on short list for Fed C

Cornering the Pound was essentially Druckenmiller's idea with Bessent agreeing. Soros signed off on it and convinced Druckenmiller and the firm to go really big on it.

The truth is that the British had it coming to them. They had their bonds and currency pegged to the Germans. The Germans were in much better shape than the Brits. It was a weakness that Druckenmiller exploited. Long term it was good for the British. It sounds much worse than the reality of the overall outcome.

No but Trump does

Lots of Goldman Sachs and Soros connections

I worked for an organization as long as Bessent worked for Soros.

Once I left, I had no allegiance to that former agency, aside from some good personal friends.

So it’s difficult for me to imagine why there would be a concern or expectation that I would continue to serve in the best interest of a former employer. I can’t help but think that’s normal. Why should I think Bessent would have any significant loyalty to a person heading an organization he worked under 20 years ago?

It appears you are retarded and can't get what you so desperately need in one thread, so you crank out multiple threads on the same subject.

No wonder you altered up, your retarded arse would get shredded if you posted this shite with your original account.

Musk woukd work but not the Soros guy

It’s difficult to imagine side deals between Soros and Bessent??

As difficult as it is to imagine side deals between me and my former employers.

What’s the best way to judge someone’s loyalty: their current employer or previous employer?

From what I can tell, Bessent left Soros to start his own Hedge Fund and part of the reason was frustrations with Soros and his son. Part of what has come out about that is that Soros was planning to restrict some investments in Israel, which did not match Bessent’s priorities and values.

It seems more likely that Bessent and normal people can respect the knowledge and acumen of former employers without having a shred of long term loyalty to them.
