Trump, Trading, Inside?

I HEARD A RUMOR that Donald Trump, and perhaps his family, friends, (to whatever extent he has any real ones), and close associates have been profiting greatly in the stock market during all this tariff turmoil. Trump allegedly sold not only billions of dollars of stock in his social media company "Truth Social", but other stock as well the day before announcing his tariffs. Then, shortly before reversing course and putting a ninety day delay on many of his tariffs, he allegedly bought right back into the market, hugely. If this is true, if Trump did all this with even a small percentage of his alleged several billion dollar fortune, then by now he must be a trillionaire, or close to it. Or if not he, then Elon Musk, who may or may not'be been part of all this rumored stock transaction. At each step of the way, the stock market behaved as could be easily predicted; it crashed when the tariffs were announced, and rebounded explosively when they were withdrawn. Again, the question is, of course, is it true, did it really happen, all this financial crime? If not, then we merely have another of our seemingly infinite examples of false information being deliberately invented and distributed through social media and the usual methods. If it is true, we have a massive instance of insider trading, on a massive scale, for which indictment, trial, conviction, and incarceration seem appropriate. What's good for Martha Stewart is good for the Trumps, after all. But wait. We are confronted with the modern reality that in our dystopian world, the president of the United States cannot, by law, be prosecuted, while in office or when out of office, for any criminal acts he or she may have committed while in office during the course of carrying out one's official duties. Donald Trump, therefore, arguably legally, did his insider trading while using his costitutionally mandated emergency powers to abscond with the power of tariffs from congress, and to instate, sort of, them. Thing is, teh insider trading thing hasn't exactly made any splash in the mainstream media so far that I can see,and one wonders if it ever willl, or will simply be swept under the proverbial rug and forgotten, like nearly all of Trump's other many criminal acts. Whether or not Trump's alleged insider trading is misinformation, a hoax, we have a serious problem. Both problems, however, have existed for a long time, and both will continue to exist, it begins to seem, long after Trump and the rest of us have gone from the societal scene. A culture of deception, lies, and hoaxes in teh global social media, and, a deeply embedded culture, history of blatant criminality by Donanld Trump, as well as by many other powerful, influential American political leaders. With reality whatever the beholder deems it to be, alternative facts are always available, and favorable narratives can be woven out of thin air, or out of one's crimes. I reckon we have to figure that at the end of the day, as we like to say, it'll all come out in the wash, and the full extent of the many crimes of Donald Trump will be revealed through assiduous research. By then, of course, we will all probably be dead, and our descendants left to deal with Trump's legacy, and the mysterious manner in which we the American people, or at least about half of us, enabled and sustained the whole sordid affair.
