[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 3556048, member: 18222"] [SIZE=6][B][URL='https://theintercept.com/2018/03/05/steel-tariffs-wilbur-ross-pollution/']BEFORE PUSHING TARIFFS, WILBUR ROSS HAD A MESSY HISTORY WITH THE U.S. STEEL INDUSTRY[/URL][/B] [/SIZE] Steve Hilton had an epic take-down of Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross for investments he questions are actually beneficial for the American people that contradicts President Donald Trump’s own policies. While conflicts of interest rules don’t explicitly outline requirements for the president of the United States, it does for members of the president’s cabinet. Wilbur Ross may to have violated those rules, Hilton explained Sunday. Ross has a long history with steel, purchasing a company with just a $3 million personal investment just weeks before former President George W. Bush issued his own tariffs on steel imports. When he sold the company less than three years later, he scored a $4.5 billion deal. It became the world’s largest steel producer and Ross sat on the board of the company until he joined the cabinet.
