After Saying Clinton Is Owned By Wall Street, Trump Proposes A Ban On All Financial Regulationby Bryce Covert at Think Progress

"SNIP.............
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has spent much of his campaign blasting his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton for being too close to Wall Street. Yet in a speech focused on economic policy on Monday, Trump will call for a moratorium on all new regulations for the financial industry.
According to Bloomberg News, Trump will say hell stop all new financial rules until the economy shows significant growth, adding that the country needs to hit the pause buttons on these regulations so our businesses can reinvest in the economy.
Trump will also argue that President Obamas record-breaking pace of new regulations along with tax increases, energy rules, and trade deals have been a lead-weight on the economy, an anchor dragging us down.
Mondays speech wont be the first time Trump has criticized financial regulation, including the Dodd-Frank Act, a package of significant financial reforms that was enacted in the wake of the economic crisis. He called for a near dismantling of Dodd-Frank a few months ago.
..............SNIP"
