"Fannie and Freddie tanked the economy?! Doesn't he know what happened in 2008?"
He may know a bit but certainly not much when it comes to treatment of the shareholders over the years. I would add Trump and Bessent to the same listing of those with a partial understanding. Some here probably know more about F&F than those three mentioned combined. Unfortunately, those on the board with detailed knowledge are not making the decisions. All we can hope for is a sympathetic ear.
