“What the F*Ck!” Is Trump manipulating markets and making money from tariffs?

For now, there is no official information that any investigation has been opened, but if you move forward, it should be directed by the Senate’s judicial and/or finance committees, both chaired by republican representatives, who have tried not to upset Trump.

“When my own barber asks me if Donald Trump is selling cheap, or doing so to try to make money for himselfThis shows that many people are quite suspicious about what is happening, ”said Democratic Senator Tim Kaine in statements.

“What is this not a market manipulation?”Senator Steven Horsford, another democrat, questioned during a House of Representatives with US foreign trade representative Jamieson Greer, appointed by Donald Trump.

Horsford did not inhibit a bad word in the way of outburst, shooting with a “What the f*ck?” (Something like “What is this?” In the Portuguese translation) in the full chamber of representatives.

“Who is in charge? Because it doesn’t even seem to be the commercial representative, ”he shouted to the audience, accusing the Republicans of not protecting the American people, after all the elected of this party abandoned the audience when they learned of the temporary interruption of tariffs.

“They all left Because they don’t even want to defend the decision, ”said the senator elected by the state of Nevada, raising his voice.
