It is funny how Donald Trump hasn't mentioned Bitcoin, even though he has an altcoin named after him. (namely TRUMP). 

Having an altcoin named after you is not really a reason to mention bitcoin, let alone become interested in in it. There have been a few known people who had coins named after them actually mention it (Kanye, Ron Paul, Max Keiser), but most of them never even know it exists.

What is the general way their are talking about bitcoin or blockchain technology? Positive, neutral or negative?

It depends what country you're asking about, but in Canada it seems to mostly be positive to be honest. Of course there are always people trying to discredit bitcoin by saying it's for criminals but what can you do?

In my country majority of political leaders probably has never heard of Bitcoins and wouldn't know w to do with it. In general, I think that most world leaders stil don't take Bitcoin seriously and just think they will not have to bother with it because it will disappear i the meantime.

Pretty cool thread, I knew about most of the people listed in the OP, that they'd mentioned bitcoin before.

I'm going to veer slightly off topic here but both Ashton Kutcher & Mike Tyson have mentioned & have been/are involved in bitcoin.

Kind of interesting, no?
