The company raised money by selling its eponymous digital tokens to investors, who were initially barred from selling.

While you can't take the crypto with you, consider taking your kids?

There was a time when Republicans would label a president and presidential family who did this as being crooks.

That time was the last day of the Biden administration.

Another meme coin that'll sink like a lead balloon once the Trump's start cashing out.

Gullible rubes will lose a lot of money ...

And just like this will take a dump, I'm saving up for a big one for WISGOD when I stop in Janesville on my way to the Dells.

I am just glad the Trump family could finally find a business that they could actually make a profit but ny only question is: ever heard of the Emolluments Clause?
Mo i guess that's just another reason to "ignore the courts,"

The Trump cabal is making Bernie Madhoff look like a piker.

So far it's performing just like any other Trump meme coin. Terribly.

$TRUMP: High $45.47, now $8.31
$MELANIA: High $8.49, now $0.19

$WLFI: High $0.32, now $0.18 in less than a week

But don't worry, the Trump family will still be raking in HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS. I guess it shouldn't be too surprising considering that Trump has always gotten his worth from running things into the ground.

That's for us rubes.

The manufacture cost of all those tokens is approximately zero.

Are you MAGAs still proud of this guy? I'm not here to judge but of course I notice obvious violayions of the Constitution!

Optional for individuals to purchase - none are required to do so.

And what protections are there that this isn't just an easy way to bribe trump.

None? Of course not that would defeat the whole purpose.

Emoluments Clause probably makes it illegal for the President to sell these.
You stopped caring about President Trump breaking the law a looong time ago.
