The New York Times finds that "corporate wrongdoers" have seen a massive drop in financial penalties with Trump.
Comparing the first 20 months of the Trump administration with the last 20 months of the Obama administration the findings were that:
There were $5 billion in penalties imposed and illicit profits ordered returned by the SEC under Obama but just $1.9 billion under the Trump administration, marking a 62 percent decline.
Corporate penalties from the Justice Department's criminal prosecutions dropped from $14.15 billion under Obama to $3.93 billion under Trump, marking a 72 percent drop
