Performative progressivism is the Democrat way. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* Nah it looks like she was for banning trades using insider trading, and against banning Congress members and their spouses from trading stocks. If your husband/wife's entire career is trading stocks I highly doubt you'd be for such. It's hypocritical that she would be for it now though. She should have kept her stance that she had in that 2012 article, that increasing scrutiny and verifying their trades should be done to make sure no inside information was used. permalink fedilink source parent
