1. Fucking asshole. 

2. If our government was working right – which it ain’t thanks to DJT – he could be prosecuted for this, or so one thinks.

3. Unsurprising given that he said smth along the lines of “great time to buy” and plus, with everything that’s surfacing about suspiciously timed trades, particularly those allied with or close to him (including some congressmembers)

4. To the Patriotic MAGA Republicans lurking this thread: care to defend this?

5. Anyone who voted for Trump thinking he would fight billionaire corruption and become the hero of the working class…congrats, you’re one of the most gullible and idiotic morons born in the entire history of this country. Good fucking job.

6. I want to see fucking consequences.

7. Ship all these fucks to El Salvador

8. >At the White House Oval Office that day, Trump pointed to a pair of billionaire visitors.

   >“He made $2.5 million, and he made $900 million! That’s not bad!” Trump said, pointing to financial investor Charles Schwab and then NASCAR team owner Roger Penske. The men were part of a visiting guest contingent of mostly racing notables.

   >Schwab is estimated to be worth $12.9 billion and Penske $5.6 billion.

   >Bloomberg reported that Wednesday was the “best day ever” for billionaires as the world’s wealthiest people raked in $304 billion as the markets rocketed back up.

9. He sh**s in your living room and rubs your face in it.

10. the amount of brazen, open corruption in this administration is stunning. the first term was horrific, but holy fuck.

11. Basically admitting to the corruption

12. So he’s gonna mess with everyone else’s lives for the sake of a few

13. It shouldn’t be a surprise, this is a government of billionaires, for billionaires, by billionaires.

14. Note this profit was stolen from all those that sold their stock and didn’t have the insider information.

15. Yeah, that was what that was all about – like a golden parachute to tie them over for a while he destroys the non billionaire rest of our livlihoods.

16. “$900 million! that’s not that bad”!

    fuck this fucking fuck weasel!!!

17. Trump will make himself the first American dictator. He will have no other choice in order to avoid prosecution for his 34 felonies on top of his illegal offenses on manipulating the stock market. The USA is permanently screwed.

18. The insider trading is so open. It’s legit insane that his indoctrinated cult followers cheer this on while he openly robs them, just because he’s ALSO robbing the rest of us who aren’t in their death cult.

19. I can’t stress enough how awful this is. These rich assholes are standing around laughing about how much money they stole from us working class people.

20. I lost a lot of money that day.

    Knowing the president of the US just scammed me personally, wtf do I do?

    Lmao

21. When are people going to get mad enough and not accept this shit anymore. Regular people are constantly robbed by these assholee

22. Imagine Barrack Obama doing the same thing.

    Just imagine that and tell me you don’t hate the living shit out of every single MAGA out there.

    If there is one lesson for the history books is that the conservatives have lost every single credibility for a long time.

    Never ever listen to any of those morons.

    Watch them talk about “there is this immigrant that is a felon and I don’t understand he hasn’t been deported” or “look at the emails where they use pronouns, isn’t that weird”.

23. Guessed this was going to happen. Crash the market, buy up stocks, repeal tariffs, get richer. Call himself a hero.

    He will do this again and again in some form or another.

24. Trump and his pals standing in the White House, smiling and laughing about all the money they made was nothing short of disgusting.
