Summary

Donald Trump faced backlash after launching the $TRUMP cryptocurrency meme coin, valued at billions, days before his inauguration.

Experts, including former ethics officials, called it a major conflict of interest, as Trump has pledged pro-crypto policies while profiting personally.

First Lady Melania also launched her own coin, $MELANIA.

Critics warn the coins, which lack intrinsic value and are highly volatile, could lead to lawsuits and public losses.

Ethics experts described the move as one of the worst conflicts of interest in modern U.S. presidential history.

    You’re not listening. I didn’t say anything about Harris or her promises. I talked about the dnc not letting us have a candidate we actually like because they’re centrists playing liberal left not actual Democrats on the international political scale.

    All the rest is a result of that not the fucking cause.

            “i can’t defend my statement so instead I’ll try futility to make fun of you”. It don’t work because I don’t care about your opinion on lemme check anything because you won’t stand for what you say. Instead you do these drive-by quips that you somehow think are clever. Try harder at least, if you’re going to be a douche be the best doucheiest douche.
