Wilbur Ross - colossal crook [View all]

I knew when Wilbur Ross was announced for a cabinet post, and I read his resume, that he was a colossal crook. The tip-off was that he was vice-chairman of the board of the Bank of Cyprus. If that isn't a red flag, I don't know what is. Bank of Cyprus has been investigated by the FBI for money-laundering Russian money.
