"It’s like running to grab your toys on Christmas morning and Santa Clause closed the bag," said Cynthia Blankenship, vice chair and corporate president of Bank of the West in Grapevine, Texas.

Sadly, of course it did. Trump’s cabinet is stuffed with cronies and financial supporters. Who could of predicted that competency in their field of responsibility actually matters ? 🙄

amazing how those technical hurdles didn't exist when tossing out money to their friends
