Trump & republicans cut banking regulations and increased capital thresholds from 50 to 250 billion for banks to comply with an FDIC stress test as mandated by Dodd-Frank (which was enacted after the mortgage crisis). SVB would have not gone bankrupt had they been required to pass this stresstest. This change was widely supported by tech companies and banks and here we are again with a bank engaging in risky behavior holding out their hand for taxpayers to bail them out: NO.
