Records Reveal Ripple CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, Met With Senior Trump Administration Official in 2018

Check out the discussion here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3A8WVtSga0

Newly-discovered White House records show the head of Ripple met with a senior Trump administration official twice in 2018.

Documents from the U.S. Office of Management and Budget show Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse met with special assistant to the President Caroline Moore on September 26th and October 3rd. The documents were unearthed by XRP enthusiast and investor Steven Diep. Both meetings appear to have lasted for the better part of the day.

In addition to being special assistant to the President, Moore is also director of the Office of the Chief of Staff, according to ProPublica.

Although the subject of the meetings remains under wraps, former Ripple chief marketing strategist Cory Johnson referenced direct talks between the San Francisco startup and the Trump administration that same year.

I thought the YT video will show the actual meeting but only to find out just articles mentioning the said event. Anyway, I am not against with XRP because they can very well served the payment industry because of its fast and cheap fees involved. This network needs more adoption in the payment sector to showcase its best features. Hoping that we will see more merchants or companies accepting XRP payment.
