    Sure looks that way but in the US, it's innocent until proven guilty. There seems to be an awful lot of evidence against him.

    Maybe...party doesn't rule it out, you know. There are creeps on both sides of the aisle.

    Innocent until proven guilty - in a court of law - but sounds like he's guilty. Sadly, all politicians do illegal things and amass their fortunes - has nothing to do with party affiliation - they get insider info and kick backs from lobbyists. We should have term limits and their finances should be scrutinized - I still want to know how the Clinton's left the White House broke and in debt and now have access to billions of dollars in their phony Clinton Foundation.

    SEC public statement, "...there is a culture of insider trading in the US stock market and other stock markets". And that was said over 7 years ago, and it really is about time ANY more be done about it.

    If that is what he did, then that is insider trading.

    I note the irony that it is only because he told someone else the insider information that Congress is privy to that made it a crime. Congresscritters can act on that inside information to enrich themselves without it being a crime.

    Funny how so many high profile, high income Trump supporters are slime ball felons. Who you hang around with says a lot about you.
