Last week, the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) published two Form 278-T disclosure reports covering Trump’s personal financial activity from January through March 2026. The documents, more than 100 pages, show more than 3,700 individual stock transactions. That’s more than 40 trades per market day across a three-month period.
We can agree that everything you mentioned is bad. But why can’t all of it be regulated all at once together?
I think we already know the answer to it and it’s summed up in one word - corruption. With nuance it would be along the lines of perversion of a system meant to be fair - but those with power and wealth are absolutely playing dirty.
It absolutely needs a balance pass that is for sure. And the problem is it would put the bigger players at a disadvantage and really don’t want that.
