The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

utter stupidity of trump here :

- c1 is a MAGA bank, and no hero !!!
- >$1m gop donations so far in 2026
- c1 gave trump 3 months, plus several time extensions to move all trump family accounts.
- c1 , a 99% online bank known for analytics, found clear evidence of $ laundering DURING the active presidency of trump 1.0, and needed to cover their ass.
- c1 used every mechanism possible to keep this secret and not embarrass trump

always full of hubris for the grift, trump's 2nd try for c1 extortion by lawsuit FORCED them to reveal the cause.

trump&family are gnat-brains. gop voters clueless and even dumber.


Comedy gold, indeed.

For background, banks are legally forbidden to 'tipp off' the customer if they suspect criminal behaviour following AML screening (Bank Secrecy Act in the U.S. and equivalent laws worldwide):

If a bank officer tells a client, "We are closing your account because our AML team flagged your wires for suspected money laundering," that officer and the bank face potential criminal penalties, heavy regulatory fines, and jail time.

Account closure therefore routinely cites nebulous clauses in the T&Cs.

So chances are Trump, in his victimhood mindset, indeed thought C1 closed the account because of 'woke considerations', self-righteously sued them and forcing them to reveal the actual reason. Unfortunately we'll probably not get to see the juicy details.
