Trump just made more money in one month via insider trading than Pelosi did in 37 years

These are big claims against a sitting President. He’s a billionaire so unsurprisingly the value of his portfolio and the gains it can accrue are significantly larger than Pelosi. That’s a clickbait title.
I’m fully against the insider trading that clearly goes on in Washington (Congress and otherwise). I thought the POTUS had his money managed blindly while he is in office…

I'm not a fan of trump, but need to see the trades before I believe clickbait.
He also hasnt had a salary of less than 300k and somehow made hundreds of millions

It’s disturbing the amount of insider trading and grift of politicians regardless of party.
Greed.
Imagine politicians doing what’s best for constituents versus what will personally enrich.

You really think Trump had time to sit around personally making that many trades?? I would think it's a personal financial advisor making all of his trades.

If DJT did this you can count on it he had legal opinions from many different levels of legal folks, from big name lawyers to federal judges.
The 4d chess is this:
If DJT does anything, right, wrong, or indifferent, every Dem in the country sprints to a microphone to weep OMB. When they say what he is doing is wrong, he will say "Make it a law, dumb-arse." Then they are forced to introduce a law where politicians cannot insider trade. Congress can no longer be excluded.
DJT and his heirs are all independently wealthy. Their trusts will be feeding Trumps off of golden platters for centuries.

He’s fleecing America with insider trading of Chipotle, McDonalds, Sherwin Williams and Home Depot.
Someone tipped him off to the new $3 McWrap deal before it went public

Heck, he eats there often enough that someone probably did tell him it was coming. Just like the other regulars.

Would have to see the ethics report that’s referenced.
I also don’t think it’s illegal for a president to have stocks traded in his account
What is ethically challenging is trading off of insider knowledge which could come from passing or not passing legislation or knowledge the public doesnt have. The article doesnt prove that.
This said- trump doesn’t seem above any insider type trading. He’s walked a thin line on his crypto profiteering. Don jr’s done quite well on his involvement with defense contractors including Drone manufacturers like Unusual Machines.
But hey, they’re all doing it…. Smirk

I think made half a billion in one weekend when he rug pulled the Trump/Melania memecoins just before the inauguration.

No politicians should be able to actively trade individual stocks. Even in blind trust. This is getting disgusting

He’s selling early access to his tweets for $100K…so yeah, he’s absolutely tipping off his investment team.

Of course he did, I would be shocked if a billionaire businessman didn't outperform a lifelong politician. When will the talking heads do something about it?

The only difference between Trump and every other crook in DC, past or present, is scale. He has a bigger rake.

Boeing stock on the date of the purchase opened at $227.75 and closed at $222.72. The low of the day was $220.12 so let's say DJT purchased all his stock at the low point. It says he purchases between $250-$500k so for conversation let's say he did the $500k, that is 2,271 shares of stock. Boeing closed Friday at $214.20, so those 2,271 shares are worth $486,448.20 for a loss of $13,551.80.
SpaceX on the day he purchased had a low that day of $151.09 when the market opened. Looks like he bought between $15k-$50k so in our example, he purchased 330 shares. Value as of close on Friday was $45,325.50 for a loss of $4,674.50.
DJT lost $18,226.30 in these 2 transactions but he "made more money in one month via insider trading....". Ok, JerryRigEverything, whatever you say.
