    I believe so, but they’re going to use the public tweet to argue that the tip was public. “It’s not insider trading if it’s all out in the open.”

    Mafioso shit.

      That’s honestly an interesting strategy. Trump is immune from the law so he can signal to his cronies using public social media posts and everyone walks away scott free
