From 2003 to 2004, Mnuchin worked as chief executive of SFM Capital Management, which the Wall Street Journal reports is backed by Soros. He also worked for Soros Fund Management LLC, according to Bloomberg.

In 2002, Mr. Mnuchin left Goldman and later was hired to run a credit fund set up by billionaire George Soros.

In 2004, Mr. Mnuchin and two former Goldman colleagues founded hedge fund Dune Capital Management LP with financial backing from Mr. Soros. Dune soon expanded into the entertainment business, striking up a film-financing deal with a unit of 21st Century Fox. Among the films Dune financed was “Avatar,” one of the all-time box office hits.

Steve Mnuchin has ZERO experience in policy or in any administration and is completely opposite to what Donald Trump and his base has been screaming about for years. He is a hedge fund, Soros, GS, Fed & Wall Street loving globalist crony. Why do Donald Trump's fanatics completely refuse to criticize him?

Trump is the one who condemned WS and GS. Then, he goes straight to GS (and Soros ). It's up to the Trumpsters and Trump to explain why appointing a GS guy is "draining the swamp".

I'd just like to see Trump actually do anything he's promised. But, that's not what Trump does. He looks out for himself. He says whatever he needs to say in order to "close the deal"--er, get himself elected.

The Trump U sales brochure sums Trump up quite well: “You don’t sell products, benefits or solutions — you sell feelings".

Enjoy your "feelings" Trumpkins.....

Mnuchin worked for Goldman Sachs for 17 years. He is a Wall Street insider, exactly the type of person that Trump supporters railed against, calling people like him "globalists". He has taken hundreds of millions of dollars from Soros, worked for Soros, and was in partnership with Soros funding a hedge fund company.

My problem with him is the Soros ties. Soros is an evil influence around the world and he would love to see AMERICANS under the heel of hard core Socialism.

They'll defend him to the bitter end; you'll see stuff like -
. Mnuchin is a smart move by Trump, blah-blah-blah...
. At least this is way better than Hillary, yadda-yadda-yadda...
. ... and so on.

Every place I look, dedicated TrumpHumpers are holding their breath for the SOS nomination. If it's Romney, these TrumpHumpers are saying they are THROUGH with their guy. I'm not buying it. It's not that easy to walk away from a cult.

Salty Dog • 12 hours ago Let's see, George Soros is a currency speculator, and has destroyed the economy's of nations. Steve Mnuchin used to work for Soros, and may be Trump's treasury secretary. What could go wrong? Salty Dog MarcusWoodson • 12 hours ago You know it, brother. Soros hates this country and now may get an inside track to our treasury. This is very, very bad. Jamie Len Caudill • 13 hours ago Come on guys you need to take a step back and relax for a minute. There's no reason to overreact. George Soros really isn't as bad as you make him out to be. President Trump wouldn't of hired this guy if he thought George Soros wasn't on the level. Believe me, conservatives have nothing to worry about. I've done my homework on George Soros. I know what I'm talking about. Him and Steven Mnuchin go way back. George Soros is a successful business magnate and all around great dude. There's little doubt that Steven Mnuchin will take the knowledge he gleaned from him and put it to use in a manner that will benefit us all while he's at the Treasury. And don't worry about Goldman Sachs. Ted Cruz's wife was employed at Goldman Sach's and look how well it turned out for her. She has a loving family. She has food. Shelter. Clothing. She's a success story. We need to give Steven Mnuchin a chance. Donald Trump believes in him so we should, too. #MAGA #/sarc Polarbearpapa The Tick (aka James Beckham) • 14 hours ago Yeah...They put a guy who is basically a Soro's minion in charge of the henhouse... And we thought that Obama's minions were bad... He has put the enemy of conservatism's minion in charge of Merica's cash... May the Lord have mercy on us... nativeson • 14 hours ago Hillary gets her Secretary of Treasury after all. Is it written somewhere that Goldman Sachs has exclusive possession of this cabinet position? [ Seriously, Mnuchin is exactly the kind of Treasury Sec. Hillary would have picked. ] TXBullFrog • 14 hours ago I thought that being associated with Goldman Sachs was bad. But tonight I am finding out that being associated with Goldman Sachs is bad only if you are Heidi Cruz and not also associated with George Soros. Did I get that right? I have a hard time trying to figure out the wiring in Trumpers' heads. BoscoBolt • 14 hours ago Well, Trump and Soros are close friends, and long-time business partners - so, no surprise. JamestheCrusader • 14 hours ago What's wrong with Rep Dave Brat (economics professor and 100% CR rating) Donnie, he'd make a great Sec of Treasury Kristian JamestheCrusader • 14 hours ago Trump wants Democrats for Treasury not fiscal conservatives The Tick (aka James Beckham) • 14 hours ago George Soros, now there's a strong conservative. I love how his life is devoted to conservative causes and making America better. If someone has ties to Soros, they're good in my book. #MAGA /s sagest • 14 hours ago Trump's pick for Treasury Secretary is a COLOSSAL leftist donor.....hey, just like Trump! https://www.conservativereview...
