Isn't this one big case of insider trading?
Well, yes. This is going to be one grift after another, with nazi stuff thrown in.
This is exactly it.
I believe so, but they're going to use the public tweet to argue that the tip was public. "It's not insider trading if it's all out in the open."
Mafioso shit.
That's honestly an interesting strategy. Trump is immune from the law so he can signal to his cronies using public social media posts and everyone walks away scott free
And the worst case scenario for him is people start reading his drivel to get in on the grift
It's market manipulation. Still a crime, though we all know nothing will be done about it.
Insider trading is not illegal per se. It comes with various restrictions depending on who you are but they don't apply to everybody.
This is just corrupt as shit, which is seemingly perfectly allowable.
Insider trading is where the one doing the trade has insider information. This "tweet" ("Truth"?) cannot be insider information by definition.
Could Trump administration figures do insider trading on the basis of more explicit insider information? Absolutely. Does this message prove any of that? No.
Correct, not insider trading, just an egregious abuse of power justifying his removal from office.
Plausible deniability - there was a public recommendation by a stable genius. Maybe people read his media site and follow his recommendations. Stranger things are happening every day
And orangeboi made himself above the law
