Death by Association

The former Deutsche Bank executive who died last week was widely reported to have approved several loans for Donald Trump.

As the executive in charge of American operations, Thomas Bowers approved loans for a number of high profile individuals, including Jeffrey Epstein.

Something overlooked in the original reporting is that Mr. Bowers died (determined to be suicide by hanging) the day before he was to be questioned by the FBI in the Epstein case.

The CDC is now contemplating the possibility of suicide being contagious.
