>> And no other banks got indicted for the same thing. But it was just regular business. Could have happened to anyone...

I'm not sure if you think I'm defending DB. But you should realize it is a sizable operation, and a 20B money laundering thing is comparatively small, they paid their fine, and I'm sure the people involved were fired. That's how it works. There is no corporate death penalty. Yet. That's a key reason for the corporate form: it survives its employees, which includes management.

>> It does illustrate that DB was not opposed to doing shady things.

Yes, but in no way does it taint the people who banked with them. That's stupid. I'm sure they had/have millions of customers. And you pick out Trump -- who has never been convicted of any financial crime (in spite of 100s of fake news claims, including many from WaPo and NYT) -- to attack.

When asked simply that you provide some basis for your claim, your response is, "You prove he didn't."

If you get anything let me know. Otherwise, I'm out of this topic. Based on what you have at this instant it is a false claim.
