A commercial to go with it

David Plouffe’s description of Donald Trump*: “A spray-tanned, drugged-up pitchman for Regeneron.” Now there’s a TV commercial. Or a “TV commercial.”

[Plouffe’s words: yesterday, on MSNBC.]

Isn't there some law or regulation or rule against people in public office profiting from being in that office?

Oh, that's right...the donald is above the laws, regulations, et cetera.

How quickly we forget.

These constant references, always with the name of the company, not the name of the treatment, are no doubt meant to juice the stock market.

I’d like to know if he, his family, and his cronies have stock in Regeneron and when they bought it.

The Crow said...

So would I! I know I suspect shady dealings, but suspicions aren't facts.

Have you seen the latest from The New York Times? A sudden infusion of cash in 2016: “ The bulk of the money went through a company called Trump Las Vegas Sales and Marketing that had little previous income, no clear business purpose and no employees.” It never ends.
