Gutting the enforcement division, you say? Go ahead, rich people, crime all you want! Nobody’s going to be watching!
Trevor Noah was right. Trump really does want to be dictator of a third-world kleptocracy.

Guess we're gonna see more Trump trading cards.
I don’t care what you think, I like my Diaper Don NFT that cost me two years savings. It’s the epitome of what America has become.
Could have just written "he will make me money".
At least he already knows where the office is.
a former SEC commissioner
Eh, that's a pretty vanilla pick. Like, not another Gaetz.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_S._Atkins
He was a Commissioner of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from 2002 to 2008
From 1990 to 1994, Atkins served on the staff of two former chairmen of the SEC, Richard C. Breeden and Arthur Levitt.
He was in a closely-associated spot under Bush Senior, Clinton, and Bush Junior administrations.
Sure, he's not Sam Bankman Fried. That said he headed the SEC during a deregulatory period that finished with the 2007-8 crisis. And he advocates for capital markets deregulation today.
i can't believe he did that this is an outrage
Who wrote that quote? I'm pretty sure it wasn't ol' dopey don.
Proof that there is always more barrel to scrape.
