Does anybody at the Associated Press know how petty and trivial 50k is to a billionaire?


Washington (AP) -- President-elect Donald Trump holds stock in the company building the disputed Dakota Access oil pipeline, and pipeline opponents warn that Trump's investments could affect any decision he makes on the $3.8 billion project as president...Trump's most recent federal disclosure forms, filed in May, show he owned between $15,000 and $50,000 in stock in Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners. That's down from between $500,000 and $1 million a year earlier.

Just to show how stupid johnforbes is, it is not the media's job to decide what amount is too much or too little to be concerned about.
It is the media's job to report the facts.

I for one am glad that I know this fact.
It's only what someone DOES with the fact that can be called "stupid".

For example, I think johnforbes simply shrugging off a conflict of interest as being unimportant because he thinks the amount is too small to matter to a man like Trump who has spent his life hung up on his net worth is really stupid.
When did johnny become the judge and jury about what is important and what isn't to the rest of America?

Honestly, the arrogance of the guy...
