>Steven Mnuchin built his career sniffing out undervalued assets and converting them into massive profits. But perhaps his greatest trade just came in the political arena.
>Mr. Mnuchin, a 53-year-old former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. banker turned Hollywood financier, parlayed a six-month stint as Donald Trump’s campaign-finance chairman into the president-elect’s pick to be Treasury secretary.
>(((Mr. Mnuchin’s))) Wall Street pedigree presents a stark contrast with the populist themes Mr. Trump struck in his campaign, railing against big banks and vowing to close tax loopholes that benefit hedge funds. Mr. Trump also repeatedly attacked his rivals in the primary and general elections for their Wall Street ties, especially those connected to Goldman Sachs.
>(((Mr. Mnuchin’s))) links to the world of high finance, in particular to Goldman, go back to before he was born. His father, Robert Mnuchin, started at Goldman in 1957 and spent his entire Wall Street career at the firm. The elder Mr. Mnuchin was among those who pioneered block trading, the buying or selling of large numbers of shares at once. Steven’s brother, Alan, also worked at Goldman.
>In 2002, (((Mr. Mnuchin))) left Goldman and later was hired to run a credit fund set up by billionaire (((George Soros))).

It was never about "draining the swamp" that was just a sound bite. It was about impeding the left and their crazy gay rights BLM bullshit.
Noah Green
Biggest bait and switch to date for trumps campaign promises.
Sup Forums on suicide watch.
Soros and Goldman Sachs is literally your Secretary of treasury now.

Trump is starting at zero. He has no political experience and can't cut off his own legs to prove a point. He knows that his first term is going to be about borders, security, jobs, and the things that will make a noticeable change in the every day lives of Americans and law enforcement. That will give him the support and experience he needs to move on to phase two.
Phase two is where he has the experience, new connections, and the ability to take on the global elite in much more fundamental ways.
Trump has always used Jew lawyers and put his financials in the hands of greasy bastards like this. As long as they do a good job for him, why not?
Jack Diaz
>It was never about "draining the swamp"

I only care if he keeps his immigration promises and islamic terrorism promises. I don't even really care for the wall. Just that we finally take real steps to prevent illegal immigration.

You got conned from start to finish.

Wait a minute
When did Trump rail against big banks?
And since when did we expect a Treasury Secretary with big connections to the world of finance? Since when did experience become a bad thing? What's the alternative?
I think you're looking for Bernie m8. Trump's not your commie. Trump's flag position - that's a fuckup. Stop trying to force fuckups out of nothing. No one bought it before the election and no one will buy it now.

Leaf you must be new here. Railing on that movie consumed about 6 months of this board when it was announced.
Then you picked the wrong guy. You picked the guy that would go on and on about a huge brick-and-mortar wall that everyone and his brother must have understood would never see the light of day, and ignored all his talk after that plainly campaign rhetorical bullshit about how his wall would have a huge metaphorical hole in it, that all illegals had to do was go back and reapply, without regard to past actions, a thing that's known as 'touchback amnesty.'

Michael Anderson
Hey user, remember that time Sup Forums thought Trump was gonna pick Ron Paul for secretary of treasury?
William Walker
Bu
Daniel Cook
Ron Paul doesn't have a background in finance or economics though - his background is medicine
David Green
Sessions will deport a shitload of illegals and fuck up sanctuary cities, even if Trump is cucked in all other respects this buys us more time.
Anthony Wood
This guy is definitely one of the kike pedophile people.
Trump is a traitor.
Lincoln Nguyen
he doesnt have a formal education but he is undoubtedly well versed in economics. He has written six books on the subject.
that said, I dont think he is a good fit for the Trump administration. Though I would like to see Trump meet with Ron at some point. Trump hasnt gone all in on the Fed but has dropped hints that he knows the truth about it. Ron's perspective would be invaluable considering that no one else in America comes close to the time and energy Ron Paul has spent fighting the Fed for his entire career
Jeremiah Butler
In all seriousness I really believe the right needed 4 years of hillary to see just how bad things could get to really force change. It's sad no one sees that Trump same side of same coin.
There's not gonna be any mass deportations. There's not gonna be any wall. It's gonna be business as usual for the global elite and you know it. America got scammed by Hope and Change to the point of No Hope and elected a conman populist. The fact he is making these appointments where real change could be done tells you that its all a scam. He's even wanting Romney. It's laughable.
Andrew Diaz
Hahahahahahahahah oh wauw
John Bell
Well where where you when Sup Forums started a petition that got 16k signatures and many memes spammed otherwise?
Now you literally get George Soros as treasurer for believing in Orange Hitler may mays.
>WHERE IS YOUR FROG GOD NOW???
Alexander Gray

Thomas Hernandez
Trump has never had anything against the Jews.
Justin King
Who would you pick? Ron Paul is economically and financially illiterate.
Gavin Wilson
>He's even wanting Romney. It's laughable.
Yup, as someone who was always anti-Trump this is really hilarious to watch. Left wingers are glad Trump will be president because he will destroy the country and ensure Democrats control the country forever.
Liam Gomez
There will be a wall and there will be deportation of 2-3 million felon illegal immigrants. I have no doubt about this. The left has failed to mount an argument against it and democrats wont waste there dwindling political capital on stopping something with so much popular support.
But yeah as for the other 10-30 million non-felon illegals it is going to be hard to deport them because things arent quite bad enough for Americans to feel comfortable with the shitshow that would be. IMO its a coin toss if we can get rid of them at this point. I honestly will take a year or two of assessment after the felon deportations before we can even know how to approach the issue.
Levi Green
Not a partner of Goldman Sachs or George Soros?
Its the same with the FDA theres the CEO of Monsanto running the thing.
You got scammed. To even try to defend Trump on this this is asinine for this board and shows how shit it became.
Easton Martinez

Landon Brown

It was clear when he picked Mike Pence as VP.
Dylan Kelly
>There will be a wall
Too expensive and not cost effective.
>There will be deportation
Fat chance. The Immigration offices are overworked, understaffed, and underfunded as it is.
William Lewis
Go back to r/thedonald you fucking Jew
Andrew Myers
>and underfunded as it is.
WE NEED MORE TAX CUTS
THAT WILL HELP!
Leo Lee
He's just gonna do some modest immigration reform policy. The GOP wants and needs the hispanic vote too.
Would be the end of the party forever. You got memed into believing his campaign promises.
Hint: if he was serious about all that he wouldn't of ran as a republican.
Aaron Hall
Shilling this hard
Ryder Collins
I personally never once thought Trump was going to bring massive change to the government. Politics require you to hire people like Steven Mnuchin.
I won't even be mad if he selected Romney for Secretary of State but I would be baffled since it would completely contradict his America first foreign policy promise.
Jack Rodriguez
None of you idiots seem to address the fact that Steven Mnuchin is as much anti-federal reserve banking system, as you are faggots.... Keep on shilling CTR...
Thomas Green
>Too expensive and not cost effective. No it wouldn't. lol

Perpetuating a corrupt system is not what won him the election though. That's the issue. He ripped off the voters who believed he would do what he said. To not hold him to promises is bullshit.
Ayden Phillips
Samefag Not rolling anyone but yourself
Andrew Rogers
Donald Trump hasn't ever held a government office at any level - his background is in using bankruptcy and engaging in various schemes to enrich himself personally, but that doesn't stop Sup Forums from wanting him to be President. So why not Ron Paul for Treasury? Fuck why not Charles Manson for Attorney General?
Ayden Peterson
Thanks for controlling the record George Soros Internet Defense Force
Goldman Sachs has deposited 00.1 sheckel enjoy!

If Trump becomes one of (((them))), we can just not vote for him in 2020. The man isn't president for life.
