Billionaire CEO steps out of the shadows telling us something we already know:
The head of Goldman Sachs said on Wednesday that Bernie Sanders' insurgent candidacy "has the potential to be a dangerous moment."
But he added that Sanders' attacks on the "billionaire class" and bankers could be dangerous.
“It has the potential to personalize it, it has the potential to be a dangerous moment. Not just for Wall Street not just for the people who are particularly targeted but for anybody who is a little bit out of line,” Blankfein said. “It’s a liability to say I’m going to compromise I’m going to get one millimeter off the extreme position I have and if you do you have to back track and swear to people that you’ll never compromise. It’s just incredible. It’s a moment in history.”
Blankfein is a long-time friend and donor to the Clinton Family. He hasn’t endorsed Hillary so far saying only:
“I don’t want to help or hurt anybody by giving them an endorsement."
That’s OK Mr. Goldman Sachs, you’ve said plenty.
