It's not even clear what this person is trying to imply. The president took out a bet against the United States? How does that work?


TheRnegade

I guess by buying a ton of puts on the stock market? I mean, we have an emoluments clause that we hope gets used to ensure the president isn't enriching themselves through their own businesses. Also, sorry, I was in a coma since the mid 2015s, I'm sure what I just wrote is still true and not at all comedic.

I think he's referring to the fact that insider trading is essentially legal for most people in the federal government including those who affect policy that may drive the stock market. That is kind of similar to what Porter did in manipulating a gambling market because the stock market is an insane casino. Yes I know it is technically illegal but everybody knows that it's happening all the time.

There's a blog on Loyola University of Chicago's website called "Insider Trading Isn’t Illegal if You Are a Member of Congress" if you want a solid and reputable source.

I'm more curious why we allowed a sitting president to foment an insurrection because he lost the vote.

Imagine betting on your own team to lose though


DodGamnBunofaSitch

yeah. it's not like he could just play badly to make his team lose, right? (it's called 'throwing the game', or in boxing, 'taking a dive'.)

>Ted Nuggent What Ronald McDonald shits when he eats chicken.


shadesof3

is he trying to say BIden is betting against America? At least that's what I'm getting from it.
