Trump just promoted Stake ???

[qwertyup23]

Trump reposted an AI UFC promo image on Truth Social that includes the Stake logo (a crypto casino), and I’m not sure how to feel about it… I get the UFC connection, but seeing a sitting president indirectly sharing something tied to gambling feels a bit off. Maybe it’s nothing and just part of the promo, but it also feels like a gray area.

It is definitely disturbing- imagine an incumbent President sharing an AI-generated image with a logo of one of the most famous online crypto gambling website. This constitutes indirect advertising which constitutes a violation of his oath of office.

The question is, what can we do about it? In all honesty, nothing because he is the president. Even the Epstein files proved that Trump is currently untouchable given that he has all the influence and power to avoid any incriminating evidence against him.

Yes, he did promote Stake.com based on the numerous articles posted. Understandably, Stake has been UFC'S sponsor for many years, and Trump is an avid UFC fan. Knowing Trump, he doesn't care about the backlash; he will promote whatever he wants to promote.
That's good for Stake.com, being a long-time sponsor of UFC, paid off.

This is excellent for Stake given that the president of USA himself advertises it. Not only would this gain traction but it would also gain the trust of potential customers whenever they see it being advertised.

I think Stake.com is the first casino to be promoted or endorsed by the president of the US, which sets them apart from other casinos in the industry.
They are already the number one casino in the industry, and this cemented their status.
Trump and his staff did the right thing by endorsing Stake.com. They could never promote a better casino.

Stake is a big company in the casino world and the management can lobby into the Whitehouse to have a favored or to have a convenience operating environment. And Donald Trump being a Businessman and a National figure, people would like to do things with him to promote their businesses.

Is lobbying that easy?
Trump and Dana White are quite close, but the promotion of one of the casinos is a story that might need further clarification, as I'm not sure a president would openly promote gambling. Unless Trump didn't realize the logo was in his picture. If that's true and Trump knows about it, the name of the casino certainly caught the public attention.

Many may say that it is just a promo image and there is no bad intention in it but as a president, having the Stake logo in the image feels a little uncomfortable because people are watching his every move. So to me, it is a visual issue and it is a morally questionable issue for many, although he has no reaction to it.

It's not strange for me, we go back a little behind Donald Trump's track record, regarding the world of gambling.
• One example:
Donald Trump Owned Several Atlantic City Casinos That Went Bankrupt — Despite This, He Said, 'Atlantic City Fueled A Lot Of Growth For Me'

What's more, now he has become president in the US, we understand that the US has the largest income in gambling like in Las Vegas if Trump promotes the Stake Logo, for me there is something we may not know, the point is that currently Trump is on the rise, whatever you wantdoing whatever is completely Trump's right.

As a president, any information that would be made public should be scrutinized or go through levels of checks. I guess that Donald Trump or his aides are aware that Stake is using the picture for promotion. I don't know if the post is still public. It should have been taken down if they thought it was inappropriate. We might know the true reason behind this promotional picture when Trump leaves office.

Stake is one of the world biggest crypto casinos and this is nothing like promotion from Donald Trump. I can decide to post an image if it impress me without bothering myself about the promotion that could be on the imagine. When you don't bother yourself about mere things that does not interest you, many will want to drag you for the other interpretation they have established so far.

Fight is taking place in the White house and that is the correlation regarding the tweet and obviously Stake is one of the main sponsors and hence it can be justified, glad to see that Stake is making its presence felt in all the major sporting events that i have watched in the past few years including UEFA, UFC, F1 etc.

I can only guess it may have a relationship with stake's decision to support trump coin on its platform. This has to be the greatest endorsement for a crypto casino. It's also my first time to see US president blatantly promote crypto casino. I swear this is my first time to see it. 
So don't be surprised if gambling is just getting more common in our daily life.

This is quite reasonable for the trump coin to be available on stake as one of the tools to gamble there, I also saw this for the first time, If this is true according to the rumors then I don't imagine Stake will continue to dominate gambling with a wider market share after attracting Trump, it can be said to be an indirect ambassador, right? this is quite crazy!

There will be a lot of envy towards Stake.com casinos it seems.

[jeremypwr]

Yeah I saw this too and initially thought it was a little strange.
Maybe there is some connection the POTUS has with said operator and we just don't know about it.

[Davidvictorson]

He's just promoting the upcoming UFC event that's gonna happen on the White House lawn in a couple months IMO. I don't see anything wrong with it as it's not like he's saying go play at stake or anything.

Yes, I agree with your take.
I am sure he may have thought hard about it as well but there wasn’t anyway to have a different poster without the casino logo appearing in it.

Here the logo of Stake is clearly visible in the image but nothing is written in the caption only soon is written so it is not yet clear whether Donald Trump is promoting Stake or he is going to buy its shares. It is also possible that Donald Trump is supporting Stake or officially legitimizing it and because of this America will get a huge amount of tax. Because this casino platform is at the top level in the online casino world and they have millions of active users. So it is not surprising to see such news that they will go for some kind of agreement with Donald Trump

Hopefully not. Because it would create a very bad precedent for the sitting president of the United States, you know... Getting a president which engages in paid advertising in order to enrich himself does not get American politics in a very good position.

As it stands for now, I would rather to lean on the possibility of Trump does not even knowing what Stake is and he just posted that because he wanted to quickly draw attention from people.

Though, with all the wacky stuff he has already done, we should not be surprised with him doing something as reckless.

Stake is dominating the US market when it comes to crypto casinos, that’s not a big news for the Americans to see that as the casino has a wide popularity. Trump in social media is not himself in reality, mostly he has account managers that are following a certain way to post and maybe he was just doing his job by quoting something like that with Stake logo on it.

That shouldn’t be on purpose, I believe is Stake wants to promote more, they have better ways, and the amount of people who would see a soccer game or a movie is way more than one president’s post in X.

There is the US version of stake which pays tax to the US government for sure, the only thing is that I don't live in the US and have never  been there as well, so I can't possibly say how popular stake is in the US, but assuming stake is a very popular in the US, then it's no surprise seeing that the president reposted the image the op is talking about because stake being a very popular company in the US that pays tax to the US government, their might be some underground connection that have with the president of the US which is not made public..

And again, the US president is a sitting president quite alright but I think he still have a personal life to live, we can't be sure what he does with his own money at his free time but if presumably he gambles, can we say that it's wrong for a sitting president to gamble?

Since stake.com is one of the world's most famous and largest casino platforms, the operator must have some relationship with the US President. And if there is no relationship, then the operator of this platform may have exchanged views with Donald Trump to promote the casino platform more. Anyway, let stake.com go ahead and create more success. However, one question remains in my mind that at this moment, maybe the warring countries, especially Iran, China, Russia, may reduce their interest in the casino platform supported by Donald Trump.
