Wonderful, sue him 3 years later and days before he becomes president’s daddy.

Few days and he will just get rid of the SEC

A lot of these late-in-the-game actions seem to be done for the sake of being able to say a person did some bad thing, regardless of whether or not it gets dropped past Jan 20th. Tears in the rain and all that.

Theyve been hounding him about this for awhile, actually. There's just been zero consequences for him. So he continues to ignore it.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

I suspect this is why he went hard MAGA this year, like Trump it’s to only way to guarantee no consequences

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

When the SEC is gone am I allowed to insider trade too?

And what’s the fine? 100 nickels?

[–] quink@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Oh no don't do that, if we fine him that vast sum of money it might destroy trickle-down economics. And he won't want to rocket the cars and then society would collapse because Lona definitely does all the work all by himself and he won't want to do that if we're mean to him.

/s in case it's not bleeding obvious.

Well, no. He just asks his buddy Trump to tell the SEC to drop the charges in a few days. So no fine at all.
