Donald Trump’s idea of a crypto slush fund is pure corruption.

Donald Trump’s idea of a crypto slush fund is pure corruption.

In others words it's pure BULLSHIT like him 💩.

No money for cancer research, yet money for crypto.

Cancer research saves lives and creates jobs.

How does crypto generate jobs or bring down the cost of living?

tweety8727.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yeah that's what we should be focusing on......we are so screwed. We have a treasonous traitor in the White House and the opposing party talking about crypto. You can't make this shit up!

cottek.bsky.social•3 days ago

Senator Warren is right—Trump’s crypto slush fund is a handout to billionaires at taxpayers’ expense. But where’s the real fight from Democrats? They call out corruption, yet act weak and hesitant when it comes to stopping it. If Trump is so dangerous, prove it. #DoSomething

louisajane11.bsky.social•3 days ago

When are democrats going to band together, get LOUD and push back? The lack of action is beyond disappointing

truckerjc.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump and musk's plan is to milk every single dime out of the middle class.And when they have taken every penny, we have they will discard us as human beings as well.

bozo23.bsky.social•3 days ago

So what are Dems going to do to tell voters what our solutions are and what we would do? We have to change tactics. We have to SHOW voters why we have better ideas. We just can't rehash what Trump is doing. We have to put forth alternative solutions.

One more example of how Trump is using the Oval Office as a means to enrich himself primarily, and maybe a few others. The grifter-in-chief just doesn’t seem to be able to help himself. Grifters gotta grift.

markroderick.bsky.social•3 days ago

As someone who works in the investment world, I agree 100%. An "American sovereign wealth fund" would be used to fund those who give money to or otherwise support Donald Trump.

Bitcoin crashes average 80%+ and occur based on "feelings" about it. How would that effect the crypto fund they have proposed ? How would that effect American wealth/debt ?

That website doesn’t have factually accurate data - for example AOC’s net worth was seriously overstated. Fact Check by Reuters reported that the AOC source (Forbes) hadn’t actually reported AOC’s net worth at that time, so we have no clue how the celeb site came up with $29 million.

Functionally speaking, Senator, 49.3% of voting americans think this should be happening. They voted for him.

Don't let every last one of those people off the hook by saying "very few".

Tens of millions of voters chose this.

I’m willing to bet the announcement last week was just a pump and dump scheme for Trump and his family after Bitcoin hit the skids suddenly.

starlightwishes.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump made a point of insulting Senator Warren last night. And she didn't care. She's talking back to him again today. Calling out Trump's Corrupt use of Crapto.

Republicans who say they can't stand against Trump because of threats are lying. Sen. Warren is speaking up. They can too!

Here's my pitch for a terrible movie: Man creates government owned fund of untraceable billions in "magic currency"- this same guy weakens his govt's response to cyber threats. The magic currency is stolen. Man shrugs and says "dang". Maga applauds. We can churn out sequels for years.

Trump and Musk are profoundly damaged creatures who never grew into fully functioning social human beings.

Musk embodies the Randian dream that civilization must be destroyed and that he, Musk, is the hero who will rebuild it anew under his complete control. Preferably on a different planet.

Yep, and the tax cuts are for the rich. The poor and the lower class get nothing. It's like giving a child a couple of penny's and telling the child to spend it wisely. It's an insult beyond measure.
