> I don't know, if we'd had an overwhelmingly Democrat-dominated government, we'd have comprehensive bans on government insider trading

We had two years under Biden with Democrat control of the House and the Senate. They passed no legislation to ban insider trading.

It probably didn’t help that the poster octogenarian for insider trading was Speaker of the House

> and we'd correct the bad ruling in Citizens United.

CU was absolutely the correct ruling as it just means I can take money from wherever I’ve earned it and spend it on publicizing my message.

Prior to that you had to buy a media company to have the same effect. It was perfectly fine for Fox News or The NY Times to focus articles and segments on what they deem newsworthy to push their narrative. But if I made my money selling widgets, I couldn’t spend it the same way.

It’s a perfectly reasonable ruling.

> Corporatism is definitely a bipartisan issue, but at least Democrats recognize it as a problem, while to Republicans it's a feature.

The same people probably complain the Senate is an antiquated body that should not exist because mob rule is the only true voice of the people.
