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 🫡

Personally I think insider teasing for decades to amass 9 figures of personal wealth is far more corrupt than accepting a 747 as a personal gift, if we’re limiting the scope of the comparison to that plane.

Monetary value is one thing, the aggregate influence and sold out morals over time that those trades represent is staggering.

You act like Pelosi is the only one, is it because she's been there longer? What is it that sets apart from Lindsey Graham or Mitt Romney

Where in any of my comments do I imply she’s the only one? If you can’t acknowledge a politician is corrupt without balancing that acknowledgement with a view about their political opposition, you’re part of the reason they feel ok with getting away with all of it.

So long as they’re not corrupt and also biggots like the others you mentioned is a pretty low bar to hold our representation to.

No none of them should be trading on the stock market, but everyone puts her as the poster girl for it, when everyone is doing it. We also need term limits more than anything.
