I am speaking about the POTUS disclosing information prematurely, which has the potential of moving markets. It's an affront to proper process and opens the door to corruption and/or loss of confidence in free markets. Don't know what you are talking about.

So, nothing about actual substance. Let's try this: Do you think it's acceptable for the POTUS to play loose with such confidential information - confidential for a good reason - simply to brag or hype himself? Do you simply reject the following as being false or unfounded?

That's the "big deal". If you don't get that, you'd apparently be OK with financial oligarchs trading on inside information - coming from the POTUS, no less. Is that what you'd call a free market?

Exactly. I was eluding to your and and handful of others constant drivel. In your words, "nothing of actual substance." I think you nailed it. Thanks!
