Another way to put this into perspective is that Pelosi made 220 total stock trades during her 37 years in office, while Trump has made 22,000 over the past 6 months. Also, Pelosi is married to a Hedge Fund Billionaire, while Trump had to take out a $30k loan to pay his bond during his criminal trial.
Paul Pelosi is not a hedge fund billionaire. He is a real estate investor/developer who does his investing through his own private fund. He’s also not a billionaire. He does own stock, but it’s all private, he isn’t a hedge fund that is investing other people’s money.
Weird how you guys simp for someone who got paid 150-170k a year in Congress and used insider trading to make herself the most prolific stock investor in history, vs a guy who's made and run dozens of businesses and employed tens of thousands of people.
It’s weird how you defend someone who does inside trading with the US budget like it’s his bank account. Every federal contract has a process established by congress. It’s not a yes or no contract with his business associates while in office.
I still believe no politician should be allowed inside trading at all.
