These wealthy elites (Wilbur Ross is a billionaire several times over, far wealthier than Trump) have never experienced the anxiety of wondering how the next bill was going to get paid or worried about missing a house payment or rent payment, or worried about a foreclosure, eviction or repossession.

They have no clue about the day-to-day realities of real people in their real lives and they don’t have a shred of empathy.

Wilbur Ross in particular, who was the liaison between Trump, the Cypriot banks and Russian banks, is not only a billionaire several times over who actually understands international banking, is undoubtedly the single most corrupt official in the Trump administration, but is smart enough not to be so obvious about it like some of the others with expensive furniture, cheating on airlines flights, etc. His deals are not for tens or hundreds of dollars, but millions of dollars in international banking.

In his entire life he has never worried about where the next meal was coming from, unless the pizza delivery guy was ten minutes late.

Get a loan, from your dad, for 1 million dollars.

He wears custom made, $600 slippers with the Commerce Dept logo embroidered on them. I wonder if Mexico paid for them?

And we have the Senate to thank for rubber stamping all of dumpty’s picks for these cabinet positions. When there was a tie mike dense would come in and cast the tie breaking vote. I hope they all get tapeworms, fleas, ringworm, tinea pedis and hemorroids. A pox on them all.

Secretary Ross suggests people living paycheck to paycheck get LOANS to tide them over missing paychecks? He wants them to go deeper into DEBT?

He doesn’t understand the workers’ situation at all!

What an UTTER Douchenozzle!

Wilbur (Droopy Dog) was removed from the billionaire’s list last year. Seems he might have been exaggerating his wealth – $2.7B. Sounds like someone else we unfortunately know. (How I wish the country had never heard of DT.) Seems Wilbur is only worth $700M. Must have been a shock to his ego… perhaps he just got a loan. He’s so not self-aware or empathetic.

Wilber Ross. Proof positive that vampires are real.

Wilbur Ross may be arousing interest in Karl Marx with his attitude.

Let them eat cake!

When it comes from people like Wilbur over there, their free advice is worth exactly what they make you pay for it.

They were supposed to go to a good Republican owned Pay Day Loans and get a loan on their coming pay checks at extravagant interest rates.

At Trump National Doral Golf Club near Miami, executives with the nation’s payday loan industry were holding their annual conference …

Under Trump appointee Mick Mulvaney, the CFPB is making it easier for predatory lenders to take advantage of the most vulnerable consumers …

OBVIOUSLY, Mr. Ross knows about an agency that has been set up to bridge the payroll gap for federal workers until the brouhaha has been settled. The agency does not require collateral or income, just your last pay slip so they know what will come in when the time comes. AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH — NOT!!!! GOTCHA! (signed Wilbur Ross)

Nothing like corruption on the cabinet, is there?

" After Trump picked him for the job, Ross “promised to divest from almost all his holdings upon entering government,” Dan Alexander wrote in Forbes. But Ross evidently did not keep his promise. Instead, according to Alexander, he held onto his stakes “in companies co-owned by the Chinese government, a shipping firm tied to Vladimir Putin’s inner circle” and other similarly “radioactive” companies. When government ethics officials later asked Ross about his holdings, he appeared to lie about them.In 2017, shortly after a New York Times reporter submitted questions to Ross about a Russian-tied shipping firm, Ross shorted the stock — that is, he made a financial bet that the stock would lose value. That certainly appears to be a no-no. He was potentially profiting from information that was not available to the public, namely that the company was about to be the subject of a negative story in the press.In 2017, Ross met with the chief executives of Chevron, even though his wife owned a substantial investment in the company. The meeting, according to Forbes, put Ross “at risk of violating a criminal conflict-of-interest law.” Ross also met with the C.E.O. of Boeing, another company in which his wife owns a stake.Last week, a federal judge ruled that Ross broke the law by misleading the public about his department’s attempt to add a question about people’s citizenship status to the 2020 census. Ross claimed data from the question would help the government protect African-American voting rights. In fact, it was intended to scare Latinos from answering the census, leading to an undercount that would ultimately damage immigrant-heavy communities both economically and politically. "

I am pretty sure that any interest on that loan to tide you over will be reimbursed by the government… ha.. ha.. ha.

Jeez, if you don’t have any food, sell off some of your stocks and buy some.

Who’d have guessed the Harding administration would come off as honest and above board by comparison.

Maybe he’s such a prick, because his mother named him “Wilbur”?

Picture worth a thousand words — Sadly
