How Steven Mnuchin Won Over Trump and Landed the Treasury Job

[@bloodandwinearered]

Draining the swamp... straight into his cabinet.

[@motoliterider]

If Bloomberg doesn't like him he must be a threat to the status quo.

[@NathanRyanAllen]

His bank kicked a 90 year old woman out of her home for missing her mortange payment by 29 cents.... He's a threat to the working poor.

[@eniemeuful]

My rule of thumb is, if liberals hate a man he is probably somebody I will love. Loyalty is not necessarily a bad thing. Many liberal journalists are loyal to the Obama's and democrats. Many if not all.

[@David-ou8bs]

Mnuchin , Devos , Ross. So much for draining the swamp.

[@phorse]

Because of privilege.

[@farzana6676]

Don't be jealous.

[@LonelyViolist]

I'm just here to learn how to pronounce Mnuchin

[@usa8529]

I like how you think that loyalty is bad.

money does not buy good looks

The gap is widening further. In December, the National Bureau of Economic Research published a new analysis, by the economists Thomas Piketty, Emmanuel Saez, and Gabriel Zucman, which found that half of American adults have been "completely shut off from economic growth since the 1970s." Approximately a hundred and seventeen million people earn, on average, the same income that they did in 1980, while the typical income for the top one per cent has nearly tripled. The gap is comparable to the gap between average incomes in the U.S. and the Democratic Republic of Congo, the authors wrote.

So? It also means there is more wealth to be earned by those who have less.

[@arthurayva3143]

Almost all political appointments are for loyalty or big donations, who's kidding who here.

[@MrJtknight]

Why would someone leave a private sector job that is *low stress, high paying and you control everything that you do* for a public sector job?

[@AlexxMk2]

MrJtknight It's called "the revolving door" there's lot's of examples of this from every country across the globe. Even the US. And I doubt he'll find it stressful, he's responsible for illegally foreclosing on thousands of people in one of his previous jobs. So expect a similar disregard.

[@alexanderk.5474]

Power & status.

[@coffelt683]

Because once the administration is out he will have the "wisdom" from working in the white house that opens the floodgates in terms of clients and capital from the government sector. He will stand to make billions in the future from this experience.

[@coffelt683]

David Rubenstien tried to do that after he worked for carter, but nobody liked Carter (besides me) so he had to build Carlyle's reputation the old fashion way after the next election.

[@tarutso]

Excellent, informative video

[@MOBROOKS]

What is Skull and Bones?

[@z2u]

low on experience?????????????????

[@coffelt683]

sorry he meant to say zero experience in politics.

[@lakiabeckwith2411]

12.00 to 14.00 all jobs per hr 17.00 jobs start with truck driving jobs start with 24.00 per hr nursing jobs 30.00 and doctors 40.00 per hr

[@lakiabeckwith2411]

That is the change here in United states of America

[@brianomahonyy]

Does anybody recognise the town or city at 2.56? it looks much more like a british residental area than any us suburbs I've ever seen

[@brattberg]

he is the only one from this new administration that i still dont trust!

[@edwconr]

I just want this guy to make the (among my faves) film 'The Accountant' into a video game compatible with Quest VR system yay. 2023. lol.

[@wonderfulwenna2710]

is this a real man???.....🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@Brickkzz]

Drain the swamp!

[@22luckygal]

I am very curious about this man and what he will do over time. I'm not making any judgements despite what has been said about him. He kind of reminds me of a mild-mannered, Clark Kent type but underneath that calm exterior is a powerhouse. He doesn't appear to be into losing and if he can win for America and the American people as a Secretary of Treasury Patriot, I'm willing to wait and see. Only his wife knows the true man. Call me naive but something tells me to give him a chance.

[@iamaman2360]

Did he have to sell every stock in his portfolio? Or does he still own stock

[@blackmesarf4361]

maybe he does it exactly like trump and puts it all into a blind trust and gives it his family... sounds not like a legal blind trust and utter bullshit? You're god damn right :D

[@lakiabeckwith2411]

1million dollars a month 5,000.00 a month for the people
