'Only the Best?' Trump’s Pick Howard Lutnick Raises Eyebrows

Is Donald Trump truly surrounding himself with “only the best”? This emotional short dives into the appointment of Howard Lutnick, the controversial CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald who survived 9/11 — but whose actions after the tragedy still spark debate. As stories of lawsuits and withheld support to victims’ families surface, the panel questions whether blind loyalty to Trump is overlooking real flaws in judgment.

He openly talks about taking care of those families. Its no secret.

[joe.man.]

No, Howard Lutnick, the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, was not sued by the families of his deceased employees for health insurance after 9/11. Instead, he made a voluntary pledge to provide health insurance for the families of the 658 employees lost on 9/11, along with a share of the company's profits. This commitment was widely praised and resulted in over $180 million being distributed to the families.
While Lutnick faced initial criticism for abruptly stopping paychecks to the families, he eventually fulfilled his pledge to provide financial support and health insurance. He is now seen by many, including some of the families initially affected, as having done the right thing.

Howard Lutnik is awesome. He helped all the families. He rebuilt the company, and they all came together and are all doing great! I've never heard of anyone having to sue him for healthcare. I believe you are lying.

The Lord knows every heart and truth. 😊

[dianefurr]

He took care of those families. And he attended all of the funerals of the deceased. Which included his brother. I looked it up. This is not really how that went down.

[TravisMccasland-rofq]

Just another zionest. This is why Texit now is gaining so much traction in Texas

[Otis]

😂😂😂 “Trumps brings in the best” gotta be a joke

[jamesallen]

It's not always good men that do good things.

[commiezombie]

At least Chris said something that wasn't all the way a lie for once. 😂

[jadrig]

The devil’s in the details: what healthcare for who? Is the company is supposed to provide unlimited healthcare forever to the dependents? Or just for immediate effects of the event? Do they not have their own insurance? Etc. I’m not saying I know who’s at fault: just being open to their being disingenuous spin both ways.

[Thomas-fvkm]

He's just describing the show Billions

[maryjeandevaul]

Wow. I would like to ask Pres.Trump about that.

[dannyhughes]

News Nation turning into cnn already didn't last long.

[wendeeonwashington]

Oh Eric please educate yourself. The CEO does not make all the decisions as in who does and does not have health care.

[markwarren]

Biden only brought in the best...at least that's what they told him.🤣🤣🤣

[PilotDoll]

Not one of you ran for public office to make a difference. It is easy to sit back and criticize Trump each and every day.
Who is Boling to tell Trump what to do?

[openmindset]

Is it true he paid the families of each of his employees? Did they have to sue for him to do that? Healthcare is kinda iffy i underatand paying funeral benefits. But healthcare for how long?

[williamridgway]

I’m still shocked the Lutnick truth isn’t all over the media. He played 9/11 to the T and became a billionaire from it. He gives me the creeps and I worked in WTC1

[michaelhayden]

Trump brings in the best, 😂 really. Holy shit
