Colorado Democratic Senator Michael Bennet campaigned against, and has taken a strong stand against, elected officials using their inside knowledge of upcoming legislation to buy and sell stocks. Yet in a recent “oops” moment, Bennet expressed hope about a bill’s prospects, but added that he wasn’t so sure of its passage that he was buying or selling stocks accordingly. To many observers this sounded a lot like an admission of guilt, despite the Senator’s later denials.
Jimmy and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Bennet’s “gaffe” and whether he was just speaking figuratively or he is as corrupt as others in Congress who have made millions from insider trading.
