CBS News reported:
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he doesn't believe the recent disclosure of President Trump's billions in crypto earnings is problematic for the president."I don't think there's an appearance problem," Bessent told CBS News anchor and MoneyWatch correspondent Kelly O'Grady regarding Mr. Trump's earnings.According to a financial disclosure released earlier this week, Mr. Trump has earned approximately $1.4 billion from his crypto ventures since beginning his second term.Those include his "meme coin" $TRUMP and earnings from World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency company backed by the president and his family.
Under Trump II, no one is paid to think, especially "look the other way" Scott Bessent. They are to execute his savage whims. Any appearance with a Trump name or image is good, even the bad ones. Trump's greatest nightmare is irrelevancy.
To boot there are two days left in the current $TRUMP Coin Club contest as the sponsors extended the original end date from July 1 to July 5. It's entirely conceivable that Trump got complimentary tickets to the World Cup final and steered them to his Trump Memes company. Which high dollar Trump donor ponied up for the stadium suite where the top $TRUMP holders get to view the game?
As for past leaderboards, the top three holders can be seen below:
Trump' crypto shenanigans are an ethical earthquake. What other president held billions in assets in an area they were charged with regulating?
Billions in Trump II crypto earnings should be a problem for all his loyal followers who lost their shirts betting on any Trump crap-coin. A Presidential rug-pull is a rug-pull just the same.
$TRUMP traded around $14 for Contest #1, $3 for the the second and below $2 for much of the current contest. As the for the $TRUMP Leaderboard extension, compete at your own peril.
