“No bank will ever handle large sums of money for startups” is peak bailout-seeking bullshit.

Yeah this is the framing they are trying instead of actually dealing with the fact that this would not have happened if republicans werent so drunk on bullshit.

Lets blame wokeness, women executives, anything outside of bullshit lax policy instituted by unserious and clearly stupid politicians who have no idea how any of this really works.

Not just that, they don't want regulations to clamp down again in response to this. So they're pivoting to "oh shit, we stepped in it, but we'd rather pretend everything's OK than have regulators step in, because I want easy, free money for my next startup."

This is what happens in an environment where people can fail spectacularly and still walk away rich and personally unaffected. They just look for the next grift.
