Inside Trump's crypto scheme and the real reason for $Trump coins

Raw Story  

Both Spiro Agnew and Richard Nixon took cash bribes while in the White House and before. Remember, back in 2000, when he was first seriously considering running for president, he said: “It’s very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it.” After his son-in-law got $2 billion from Saudi Arabia, though, and his companies made an estimated $2.4 billion during his last presidency, it appears that Trump decided the small stuff was for pikers so he’s going to crank the door wide open to serious tens-of-billions-of-dollars money. A “fungible crypto asset” like the new $TRUMP coin is essentially a digital picture that’s limited in its issue to a certain number of items. How much this contributed to the ruin of the ancient commonwealths has been already delineated.” This led to the Constitution containing the Foreign Emoluments Clause, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, that explicitly says: “o Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.” Interestingly, Alexander Hamilton believed the clause didn’t apply to the president or vice president; when he was Secretary of the Treasury, the Senate asked him to clarify by submitting a list of office holders who were subject to the clause’s provisions. With the $TRUMP coin vehicle that enables foreign governments, princes, and even domestic billionaires or companies to shovel millions or even billions directly into Trump’s pockets, it appears that he’s decided to leave his working class MAGA followers in the dust and redirect his efforts toward the truly morbidly rich.
