Copying verbatim the content of this tweet from Punchbowl’s Andrew Desiderio to not mince the words: “The White House is intensely lobbying Republican senators to oppose a congressional stock trading ban set to be marked up tomorrow. Why? Because senators plan to offer a substitute: a bill that would extend the stock trading ban to the President and Vice President”
Sooooo yeah, this isn’t an 80/20 issue. Probably more like a 99.98/0.02 issue. Even that’s probably too generous and yet Trump’s billions of shares in his scam side businesses are apparently more important than him being on the right side of it, especially at a time when the “anti-establishment” podcaster bro set are already getting deeply suspicious of him over the Epstein shitshow.
