People complaining about the cost of eggs are getting scammed by $TRUMP Meme Coin. It's kinda funny, actually. Now they're going to have even less money with which to pay next month's groceries, gas, and pharmacy bills.

  It seems like Trump is on the verge of solving the world's energy problem, with the self-powered gaslight. I should write a browser extension that replaces instances of "Donald Trump" "with "Hawk Tuah".. "President Hawk Tuah did a rugpull"...

His grifts may get clumsier as his cognition declines. > while the influencer Ash Crypto groused, “Our industry is a fcking joke.” Hasn't stopped anyone yet, has it?

  > His grifts may get clumsier as his cognition declines. Does he even need to do anything? He's managed to get people to pay him to put his name on towers and perfumes and slabs of meat (Trump Steak), in this case it's most probably a similar thing with a shitcoin... I do believe incompetence attracts incompetence (educated people with morals would rather follow to their morals rather than work for a corrupt shit-smelling wannabe-dictator), so that's why the grifters working for him might get sloppier and sloppier. Not that it matters, H. L. Mencken's maxim seem to still be truer than ever: > No one in this world [...] has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.

    Educated people without morals also see the opportunity this time around. As he slides, people around him will push his envelope. He may even suffer a consequence as a result. Let's see.

> CNBC Africa TV host Ran Neuner accused the presidential family of “grifting at the expense of the entire crypto community.” The entire crypto community is one big grift. What coin did not financially benefit its creators?

    Being an early (and often only) miner in the early days of the exponentially decreasing emission all but guaranteed a large BTC stash for Satoshi. Kudos to him for not having cashed out, but he's still a mega billionaire on paper. A better answer might be Grin, whose creators had no easier access to coins than any other miner at any time.
