Trump with some weird crypto claims

[Wrestleknownothing]

Trump is going full populist while also undermining his own statements. Also known as Being Trump.

Over the weekend in Nashville at a crypto conference he told the audience he would:

• Establish a strategic national bitcoin reserve (would require a new law)
• Never sell the bitcoin (then how is it a reserve?)
• Fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler (head of an independent agency not currently allowed to be fired by the President)

Three years ago he told Fox News bitcoin was a scam and he was not a fan. Even allowing that people do change their minds his other quote has me, shall we say, skeptical. 

In his Nashville remarks, Trump said that he had heard from former Republican Presidential candidate and tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy that the crypto community “involved” 175 million people. “So when they heard that, they said, ‘let’s be nice to them, at least until after the election.’”

Once again Trump catches himself saying the quiet part out loud.

Was this before or after he said that anybody that burns the U.S. flag should get a year in jail and police officers should be exempt from prosecution, no matter what kind of atrocities they commit.

Oh yah. So I guess the statements that are the subject of this threat came after.

Donald is a the oldest Presidential nominee in the history of our country.

He's at least half senile, the other half crazy, and it should surprise nobody that his comments are not logical and all over the place. 

Biden realized he wasn't as sharp as he used to be and had the decency to step out of the race.

Donald just pushes forward, sticking his foot in his mouth every time he turns around.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, in this country needs a 78 year old running for President.

He continually proves that he's too old for anything but shouting at clouds.
