Donald Trump slashed rail regulations and a toxic train derailed. Donald Trump slashed banking regulations and a major bank failed. if only we could find some common thread linking these events

i quit twitter when musk took over, but decided to click on this tweet to see the replies.

before musk took over replies to Jeff on twitter were always positive and supportive. now every single reply is negative and trashing him, with musk pushing all the right wing trolls to the top with the blue checks and algorithms. you can really see the difference. he has destroyed twitter.

such as the failed response to C-19, or his trade war that got us paying farmers for
all their crops which couldn't be sold, or the infant formula fuck up.

Trump was just doing what his boss Vlad wanted him to do and that was destroy America
from the inside.

If you look at the website below, you'll see that it did it's job and practically eliminated bank failures.
The only reason it was repealed was for greed. Unfortunately several Democrats signed on, making it's repeal a bi-partisan effort.
Big mistake!

I remember way back when they deregulated the banks. I was getting all these calls from brokers telling me it was a big opportunity to buy bank stock.

And despite the evidence, they still think that.

Best blame Obama, Biden - but never TFG.

Whatever some think TFG promised them, they just can't let it go.

As usual, it is up to a POTUS (D) to clean up after a POTUS (R) has made a mess.
Some things never change.

He should not hiked interest rates and constricted M1 money so quickly given the weaknesses Dump created in the banking sector.

Any competent person, like Lael Brainard or Timothy Geithner, would have recognized the situation and proceeded with more caution.

I want Powell’s head on a platter for this.

21. Fed Spending

The Federal Reserve also saved Trump's economy by pumping money into businesses and buying stocks and bonds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Without that spending the economy would have crashed under Trump.
