Biden: Gov Officials Shouldn’t Be Able to Make Money in the Stock Market, Only From Chinese Bribes

“I don’t know how you look your constituents in the eye and know because of the job they gave you, gave you an inside track to make more money…”

President Joe Biden woke up after a four-year nap to declare that, “nobody in the Congress should be able to make money in the stock market.”

If Biden really believes this, why didn’t he say anything for the last four years? (Or during his extended time in the Senate?)

And while there’s an argument for banning stock trading by federal elected officials (even though on the scale of financial improprieties by members of Congress, it’s not even in the top 5) Joe Biden is the last one to make that case.

Biden used his family to solicit money from foreign interests around the world. Compared to that insider trading is practically humanitarian.

“I don’t know how you look your constituents in the eye and know because of the job they gave you, gave you an inside track to make more money,” Biden said.

Indeed, how does Biden keep looking the American people in the eye? And continue doing it after issuing a blanket pardon for his son?

Government officials should not be able to make money in the stock market, just from Chinese bribes.
