There’s not a lot of love for Donald Trump on Wall Street, for obvious reasons. He’s notoriously poor at paying his debts and has stiffed major banks out of hundreds of millions of dollars over the years. Then there was his regrettable one term as president, during which he upended nearly every civic norm and managed to become the first occupant of the Oval Office to be twice impeached. If that weren’t enough, he followed that up with his pathetic and ungracious display of indignity in the wake of the 2020 election, culminating with his encouragement of the January 6 tragedy. Now, we’ve had weeks of congressional hearings that have revealed the gory details of Trump’s insurrection, including the riveting testimony of Cassidy Hutchinson, the 25-year-old aide to former Trump chief of staff, Mark Meadows. (Trump has vehemently denied the accusations made in her testimony.)
