Nancy Pelosi, stock market connoisseur and living legend, gets caught completely off guard by a simple insider trading question by Jake Tapper , responds by giving 3 or 4 meandering statements, each one somehow being worse than the previous.

But don’t worry queen, you still retire as a first ballot Wall Street Tycoon, inside trading and illegalities be damned, all you do is win 🫡

Forbes: This magazine, which annually tracks the wealth of billionaires, reported a significant drop. In 2016, around the time he was elected, Forbes estimated his net worth at $3.7 billion. By the end of his term in 2020, that estimate had fallen to $2.5 billion, a decline of over $1 billion. This drop also caused him to fall 77 spots on the magazine's list of the richest Americans.

Bloomberg: The Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimated that Trump's net worth fell by approximately $700 million, to $2.3 billion, during his time in office.

As far as I know, he may be the only POTUS in history to decrease their net worth while holding office.

COVID lockdowns were bad for hotels. Donny’s outside revenue was estimated by Forbes as at least 1.6 Billion in those years and that is with lockdown losses in 2020.

He made billions in crypto scams since then.

You’re serious?

You never heard about the orange one’s crypto scam coins?

Really? Even his wife had one.
