We need to see the stock trades of President Trump and his family in the month of February.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

This is a tweet fired off just a day ago by David Frum, a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush and, yes, a noted critic of Donald John Trump.<\/p>\n

Frum has raised a legitimate issue with regard to the pandemic virus and the scandal that has erupted in the U.S. Senate regarding senators who sold stock in companies in which they were invested on the eve of the stock market collapse.<\/p>\n

You see, the senators allegedly had inside knowledge of what was about to happen, so they — again, allegedly<\/em> — dumped the stock at a huge profit before it lost a ton of its value.<\/p>\n

They were engaging in happy talk about the market and everyone’s retirement accounts. Except they allegedly knew the bottom was about to collapse on the market’s value.<\/p>\n

Hmm. Didn’t Donald Trump also engage in that kind of low-balling of the coronavirus pandemic threat? Um, yeah, I believe he did.<\/p>\n

Hence, we have David Frum raising the pertinent issue regarding the Trump family’s investments. The public’s ability to see such activity is likely to be fought hammer and tong by Trump, just as he has fought like hell to keep his tax returns away from public review.<\/p>\n\n
