“Trumpworld's presidential gold rush”
“With each passing month, Trump is weaving the
financial interests of his family, his allies and his political movement more tightly than ever into the fabric of the American presidency.”
“The Justice Department's announcement came amid mounting scrutiny of Trump's most recent financial disclosure, which revealed more than
3,700 individual stock trades last quarter. The trading activity — involving some companies heavily exposed to federal policy decisions — represented a staggering escalation from the previous quarter. Trump publicly praised or promoted several companies, including Apple, Dell and Thermo Fisher, about the same time he was buying their stock.“
“Trump's first term generated
recurring conflict-of-interest scandals around hotels, golf clubs and foreign patronage. His second has produced a far more sprawling ecosystem for enrichment.”
“At the center of the gold rush is crypto: Trump-linked meme coins have
minted billions for the family and its inner circle, with top holders unlocking dinners at Mar-a-Lago and private events with the president.”
“Since Trump took office, his sons have become investors in a range of new industries.”
“Donald Trump Jr. is a partner at 1789 Capital, which has
grown from $200 million to $3.5 billion in assets over the past year while backing AI and defense companies that have won federal contracts.”
“
Trump Jr. also has gotten involved in the booming prediction-market industry through advisory roles with Kalshi and Polymarket. The Trump administration is
currently suing three states to defend the platforms from state-level enforcement.”
“Trump's son-in-law
Jared Kushner has continued to raise billions from Persian Gulf governments while serving as the president's peace envoy for the Middle East.”
Trump is going to walk away from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave making himself a multi billionaire, and all on the taxpayers’ dime
But, but, but, big Bobby Bobulinski told Sean that Biden was the “Big Guy,” where’s Comer and Jordan?
