One has to wonder how many of those around Trump are on the phone to
traders and fund managers. Trump is very different than other presidents
and all his flips, flops and tweets present enormous opportunities to
make piles of money. Knowing what the latest flip is two hours ahead
of time could be worth a fortune.
