If you've elected someone who has hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in Russian natural gas companies, ExxonMobil, and Shell, they won't support climate change legislation.

If someone you've elected has thousands in Microsoft, Google and Apple, they won't regulate those companies.

The point is that her own financial interests won't influence what policies she supports. Republicans are secretive about their portfolios because they know people would ask why the fukk a guy who is making money off big pharma is allowed to be in charge of healthcare .
I mean, wasn't Snyder vs. The US just overturned?
In this hypothetical scenario, she should be able to receive any briberies after the fact and it could be completely legal.

:yeshrug:
Either way, I think that matters less than we're willing to admit because Lobbyists still have a chokehold on Washington.

That's how every politician's portfolio should look. If you're actively shaping financial policy you shouldn't be able to trade stocks, and you should be restricted to index funds. Which isn't some punishment, mind you. Warren Buffet's portfolio is 90% index funds, it's one of the safest/best ways to invest and maintain wealth. Hell if someone had convinced every pro athlete over the last 40 years to put most of their contract money into a Vanguard S&P 500 index fund, none of them would be broke today.
been on this train of thought for years now.

These attempts at spinning her into some paragon of virtue are completely hilarious. Of course her personal portfolio is going to look uneventful.
