    I’m in favour of banning government members from trading stocks, but it didn’t exactly take an insider to predict that the tariffs would bring the market down.

      Nope, but it took an insider to know the timing before everyone else and thus get a head start before things start plummeting. There’s a shitload of money to be pilfered that way.
