    This is the real angle.

    Trump and his corral of ethically challenged assholes have plans to take, grift, and wreck every one of the poors. He’s going to enact things that push and pull the levers of the global markets, giving a heads up to his collaborators beforehand.

    Something like this works in two directions: 1) people shorting the markets it affects, and 2) the people who own the US steel industry or supplies. In 6-12 months after they’ve profited enough in this direction, they’ll just invest in the other direction and change the order.

    Who is going to investigate it or stop it at this point?
