Alan, Ben, Janet, Eddie And Steve’s Excellent Adventure Bankrupting Sears—A Cautionary Lesson For The Donald

Sometimes the Donald fires before aiming, or not. Anyway, today he clobbered his Treasury Secretary with a two-by-four across the forehead.

Regarding the long, long overdue demise of Sears, Trump opined that management did it:

President Trump says “it’s a shame” that Sears is declaring bankruptcy…..”Somebody that is of my generation, Sears Roebuck was a big deal, so it’s very sad to see … Sears has been dying for many years. It’s been obviously improperly run for many years”

The screw-up management in question, of course, was the (alleged) genius investor Eddie Lampert and his Yale roommate and life-long Wall Street bud, Steven Mnuchin.
