Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman Made Hundreds of Stock Trades Despite Pledge to Form a ‘Blind Trust’

Democrat Rep. Daniel Goldman (NY) has made nearly 500 stock trades since entering office in January, despite previously pledging to form a “blind trust” to shield himself from financial conflicts of interest, Raw Story reported.

Goldman described himself as a “strong advocate for anti-corruption” and pledged to put his stock portfolio in a blind trust while campaigning to represent New York’s 10th congressional district, an area that encompasses the New York Stock Exchange.

Goldman said during an August debate:

The fact of the matter is I have spent my entire career in public service, taking down gun traffickers, fighting against corrupt individuals, being a strong advocate for anti-corruption, and then obviously being in the trenches protecting and defending our democracy. So whatever you want to reference, I was in a blind trust with all my money when I was a prosecutor. I will put my money in a blind trust as a congressperson.

It would be nice for MTG to file a ethics complaint against this lying jerk.

Are they required to put their assets in a blind trust? I thought it was just customary.
