Moderator and a former Fed member were discussing trump's remarks about modifying/weakening the Fed if elected. trump said "I made a lot of money, and I could do a better job..."
Long discussion, but not ONE fucking word from either of them about trump's bankruptcies and business scams. Better job at what?.... bankrupting the country??
Not reporting the whole story is journalistic malpractice.

9. The egomaniac says he can solve everything

Trump taking over the Fed reminds me of Hitler taking direct control of Germany’s military during WW2.
