Aaron Rodgers Joins the Stock Market Discussion Speaking Out Against Robinhood
The story of the stock market, Gamestop, Robinhood is crazy. It is the story of the week. I will not begin to tell you that I can either… A. Properly explain what the fuck happened this week or B. Fully understand why it happened although I’m getting a better understanding of it. Yesterday, Robinhood, the retail stock trading app, killed their entire brand by pausing activity. This drew the ire of many including Dave Portnoy of Barstool Sports. Rodgers and Dave have become very close of late. Rodgers agreed with everything Portnoy said yesterday and also shared Carolina’s offensive tackle’s Russell Okung thoughts about the whole thing.

People are unhappy with Rodgers though. One because he retweeted Portnoy, even though, that’s what he did all of the day. Two because Portnoy appeared on Tucker Carlson and FOX News. Portnoy appears on Carlson due to being invited on and has said to appear on any place that will have him. For the Barstool Fund, Dave went on CNN, Today Show, and Fox News. The message is what Rodgers is trying to get across. He is too big for anyone to tell him ‘Hey don’t retweet that’, but you shouldn’t be disappointed in him either. Just a friend of his who is appearing on TV.
