Donald Trump commented on cryptocurrency ... in an interview with Maria Bartiromo over the [last] weekend:
“What do you think about crypto?” Trump was asked. Bartiromo noted that “New York and Miami are really getting cryptocurrency into their financial systems.” The former U.S. president reiterated his anti-crypto stance: “Well, I never loved it because I like to have the dollar. I think the currency should be the dollar so I was never a big fan. But it’s spilling up bigger and bigger, and nobody is doing anything about it.”

Trump has never been a fan of crypto. In August, he predicted that cryptocurrencies are “a disaster waiting to happen.” In June, he called bitcoin a scam that needs heavy regulation.


... but ...


Melania Trump announced the launch of her own NFT platform as well as her first NFT “Melania’s Vision”. The platform is based on Solana ...   source

And Trump was also asked about the former first lady’s non-fungible token (NFT) endeavor: Commenting on his wife’s NFT plans, Trump said: “She’s going to do great …"

 

I hope that he knows, that NFTs are on crypto blockchains.

If I could get a dollar for every comments, tweet and so one made my Donald trump that k didn't agree to I would have probably been a billionaire by now, Donald trump has never supported or agreed with crypto-currency or liked it in any way so I don't even take any of his comment concerning crypto-currency seriously, I believe he is learned and also has learned people surrounding him but it's clear he has made is a priority not to support crypto-currency or like it in any way.

Business people keeps many things more confidential. To the outer world he is in a situation to take a stand against bitcoin and support dollar. If not, this itself will get turned to be a big controversy. For sure he'll be having bitcoin in his portfolio, and these high profile people always keep themselves updated with the technology. This is what we can see through the launch of Melani's NFT through the Solana platform.

Soon we can see Donald Trump talking positive on bitcoin

[titular]

Donald Trump also made his entire career out of making the dollar what it is. He has been saying since he was young that he wanted the dollar to be the global reserve currency.

So to see him making comments such as these is not surprising.

I'm sure he won't have a problem with our dollar CBDC.

For sure he knows but as his husband and youre wife is doing something out of his interest then would you do make out some negative words or being against with it? For sure you would say the same
even though it do looks contradictory on what you have said against crypto in the past until the present but if this one really turns out  that he's isnt aware about NFT's then
sooner or later he would really be knowing that it is still connected to cryptocurrency which he do hate or dont like the most. Im not surprised that
he would really be having these kind of sentiments which on someone who do support USD the most.

I do not know if you remember what happened in the run up to the election of Donald Trump? He was not against Bitcoin back then.. he even appointed people that was pro-Bitcoin back then.

So ask yourself ..What happened since then? Well the former first lady has announced the launch of her own NFT platform... so he might be trying to eliminate the competition? (or to reduce the support for Bitcoin from his supporters) 

[Fesatmas]

After all, Trump is not as cool as when he was president. This is natural for the preacher to say because even when he is ministering his words are never right. The character of a Trump is like that. No wonder he is not crypto friendly, but his wife runs a project which is based in crypto. Perhaps outside of Trump's watch, his wife regularly monitors Twitter and sees all the actresses and influencers admiring crypto so she is interested in being known more. Luckily he didn't say Bitcoin.

When it comes to politics... an angel could be a devil so  do words... an A could be O depends on the circumstances , at this case trump wife doing O while trump has stated A few years ago lol kind of funny shit ... 'shes's going to do great' , bullshit of the year.
Trump invested in crypto , we just dont know. his wife NFT at least must be come from his pocket though.

Trump and milenia might be misunderstood about the whole crypto concept, they just know that bitcoin are dengerous but not with the NFT thing lol.

So he is trying to manipulate the media and stuff so that he can elevate the mood of fan followers of his wife, lolz. That’s might be a negative marketing strategy but it’s not cool when trump is saying it or doing. I just think that Trump has misunderstood everything about crypto, and he is just trying to protect the dollar because it’s traditional and it is the era of dollar for him since he saw it for the first time.

However he does not have that much strong influence on the community. Neither his wife will recieve much of the attention for this not home himself. But good read anyways.

1. It doesn't matter. What he declares and what he does are not the same. Never were.
And he doesn't care. At the end of the day, all he cares about is if this "thing" gets him profit. In dollars, obviously.

2. What does all this have to do with Bitcoin?!

[Haunebu]

Lol. What a hypocrite. He is willing to praise BTC and other cryptocurrencies as long as he stands to benefit from them which isn't really surprising considering the fact that he is a money-hungry snob.

Honestly, I find someone like him calling crypto dangerous hilarious. The man is the epitome of danger and we all know why. As they say, very few people truly change in this world.

He might actually end up joining the NFT bandwagon soon in order to rake in some quick profits too in my opinion.

Donald Trump Detests Bitcoin, Calls BTC a Scam, Wants Heavy Crypto Regulation

1. This discussion is about NFTs, not about Bitcoin.
2. Trump said this or that about Bitcoin. So what? Politicians do say things. They usually don't mean shit.

That is so funny!

In other words: do as I say, not as I do!

I remember that. It was in 2016, crypto market even reacted well to his victory and there was a lot of hope he could be one of the first world's leaders to start talking about bitcoin in a positive way.

But actually since before the launchment of his wife's NFT platform he is against bitcoin, so I think when he talked positively about the digital currency back in 2016 it was just part of his propaganda to endorse anything the establishment was against, in order to enforce his position as an outsider and savior of american people from the bureaucrats and the fake news media.

He is indeed still very vocal when he talks about bitcoin and the reason is still the same as at the beginning because he still thinks that bitcoin will make the dollar weaken.
On the other hand, talking about NFT, I think he already knows because it's impossible that he doesn't know but there is a reason because it's impossible for him to drop a product created by his family even though he doesn't like it but that doesn't mean he has the right to ban others.
and he already understands business more than others I think

That's a little bit surprising to see all those republicans afraid of Bitcoin just because it could harm their national currency, the US Dollar. If they are true liberals why are they afraid about an innovation? Bitcoin will only weaken USD if it is stronger than it. That's it.

Donald Trump commented on cryptocurrency

Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one.

In June, he called bitcoin a scam that needs heavy regulation.

It's a scam/fraud/conspiracy to him, yeah. Who the hell knows what he's done in a non-regulatory way, but bitcoin? Nah, for criminals. Basically, they keep saying the same thing all these years; don't buy bitcoin 'cause you're a criminal if we can't regulate you.

Screw you and your dollars. Even if I'm not fully agreed with free markets, at least they're honest.

[dkbit98]

Donald Trump is a circus clown, liar and manipulator like most (if not all) modern politicians, and he should not be listened about anything including Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
I am not going to talk about NFT's that are mostly just creating noise for bitcoin, and Trump's wife can do whatever she wants with that, maybe she want to earn something and brag to her husband later.

[aoluain]

Ah I couldnt be bothered what Trump thinks about Crypto, as posted above he only
cares about his "bank balance" and if he thinks it can make a profit for him
he will appoint someone to make it for him.

Melania knows where the money is at and is engaging in NFT's, so funny though
that Donald is all positive about her venture, he hasnt a clue.
