It seems like a century ago, but it has been only a handful of years. Do you remember the years the GOP tried to find evidence and proof of the Biden crime family and other than a weapons charge, found nothing that connected Hunter's questionable dealings in Ukraine with making his father rich? How about what the Trump "crime family" is up to in plain sight? And no one on the MAGA aisle cares and both Trump and his kids are feeding at the trough of conflicts of interest and trading on the position of dad in the Oval Office. Where's the outrage now? Is it Nixon's arrogant boast: if the president does it, it isn't a crime? The Trump administration is clearing the way for corruption. Buying access through buying Trump's coin gets you a dinner or a night in the Lincoln bedroom. There is probably nothing more corrupt than this that even those who do not grasp crypto details can understand.. Trump offers private dinner to the top investors in his meme coin | CNN Politics Access to the president from foreign and domestic "investors" is sold to the highest bidder and the proceeds go into the president's pocket.

" A deal for a state-backed Emirati firm to use a Trump-affiliated digital coin was announced in a panel that included the president’s son and his business partner, who promised, "This is only the beginning.' ” https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/us/politics/trump-cryptocurrency-usd1-dubai-conference-announcement.html?unlocked_article_code=1.D08.4Tst.3jIYRxMCYbaI&smid=url-share
Since Trump now controls the entire executive branch, has already gained control over official federal scrutiny of his crypto dealings and or foreign influence. Left to expose will be by what is left of the free press with enough guts and resources to take it on. An outcry from voters objecting to this on the basis of conflict of interest or any violation of a law will depend upon the lay public becoming very knowledgeable about how a crypto system that can hide wrongdoing, even if they do not understand the nitty gritty speculative nature of crypto itself.
One job that the press, the resistance, and elected Democratic officials can do is to educate the public about why and how the Trump family benefits from trading on the Oval Office occupation. Education about what crypto is itself is as complicated as the system itself.
