    The collateralizing and derivatives of the mortgage debt marked aided and added to the financial collapse, but did not cause it. It was caused by the government forcing banks to make unworthy loans and then incentivizing Fannie Mae to buy up those bad loans. In the early 2000s Bush, with McCain as point man in the senate, made a strong effort to reign in and regulate the derivative markets (which were banned from regulation by Clinton and the Democrats) but were stymied by filibuster actions and threats by primarily Sen. Dodd.

    Nonsense as the government study proves. 18% of all the loans that defaulted were Fanny and Freddy. The other 82% were by private lenders.

    Do some research instead of just parroting right wing nonsense. Since you are obviously unable to make the effort on your own I will provide you the link:

    Good. Barr lied and totally missrepresented what the Mueller report actually said. Just one more turd in the Trump punch bowl.
