Charles Ortel, Ex- Wall Street Banker, Explains the Tough Spot Trump Is In

Charles Ortel, a former Wall Street banker, in recent years has become a crusader against massive, systemic fraud and unbridled, unprosecuted criminal conduct within the financial sector, including charity and nonprofit fraud.

Today, in the first installment of an ongoing series, Ortel presents deep background and sheds new light on the social, political and economic fix President Trump is in and why there is no easy way out of it without causing major collateral damage.

Ortel shook Wall Street when he proved that General Electric and other corporations had been overvaluing their stock. In self-initiated probes he undertook later, he showed that many high-profile, politically connected individuals were actually running illegal billion-dollar enterprises as charities.
