Dodd-Frank is already weak and Trump wants to dismantle the tiniest bit of Wall Street reform we have? Well any hope for Independents wishing Donald Trump is going to disrupt the system and the banks is now gone. Trump loves this corrupt system and he loves Wall Street.

Yea, Trump is a buffoon when it comes to these things. Hillary seems to be the only candidate we can trust to bring about meaningful Wall Street reform.

LOL don't act like Hillary will do anything to bolster Wall Street reform.

Playing in Civ 5 as Trump right now. His perks:

Unique Ability: Your first golden age lasts the entire game. Population unhappiness increased by 100%, gain 4.5 happiness when you found a city. Start with a free outsourced worker.

Unique Unit: Border Patrol. Replaces the infantry. Lower combat strength (60 vs 70), +1 sight, +1 movement, cover 1 promotion. Combat bonus in friendly territory.

Unique Building: Great Wall of America. Keep the filthy immigrants out. Replaces the Great Wall. After building it, all units recieve an additional combat bonus in friendly territory. +15 Happiness, -4 Culture

It makes the game too easy :(

Can't stump the Trump.

I wonder what his full plans are.

Im usually all for free market, but credit, loans, and investments really should be heavily regulated.

Moral hazard has to be regulated wherever it's found because it's the antithesis of the free market. This is the hypocrisy of the right wing.

Sarcasm, bruh.

But this news isn't surprising to me. A billionaire doesn't want to go after other billionaires and millionaires on Wall Street and the banking industry to protrect and help the working and middle classes? What a shock.

This sucks. There won't be a major candidate that offers important financial reform (or keeping good reforms) this cycle. I guess that's pretty normal, though. Establishment candidates have been like this for a while now, Republicans just tend to be a little worse or more open about their corrupt relationships with banks, corporations, and Wall Street.

Also, what are Trump supporters thoughts on Trump and his campaign indicating that they might or probably will take Super PAC money now?

Is it obvious to you now that very little of what Trump says he stands for is actually true? For how much longer will yall be fooled? He has flipped on so many issues in a matter of months. Hillary has flipped on issues, too, but most of the flips have taken place over decades of politics.

Trump supporters will always support him and excuse his behavior, ignorance, and flippety floppetys but I think you could see a loss of enthusiasm as this goes on and he becomes even more and more typical Republican which would be fantastic

They will never hold Trump accountable it will always get flipped to "shillary" killary" "etcetcetc" is worse blah blah
