I am a licensed stock broker, I am very clear on the law, and I have dealt with stock fraud before exposing criminals. What Trump did is both funny, legal, and yes, probably the biggest stock manipulation scheme in the history of stock manipulation.
Again, you must have missed my posts about how Trump's sons selling cryptocurrency at the same time he is trying to crush the world's stock markets was a far better scam than Biden's coked out son selling that junky art for 500k each.
However, if anyone took Trump seriously when he, as president of the US, said he doesn't care about the stock market. I mean you would have to be the biggest idiot. That is what makes what he did so funny, it exposed some of the biggest idiots on the planet. I can also imagine his trial for insider trading as being in the next Naked Gun movie. There is so much opportunity for humor, it is hysterical.
In conclusion God said he would have them in derision and I am enjoying every minute of this.
