So, before he speaks at Bitcoin 24', I think it's important to remember:
- He could have pardoned or commuted the sentence of Ross Ulbricht while he was the sitting President, but he didn't.
- He just made millions off of his own shitcoin.
- His stated views on Bitcoin before election season:
>I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air. Unregulated Crypto Assets can facilitate unlawful behavior, including drug >trade and other illegal activity....

>Bitcoin, it just seems like a scam," Mr Trump said. "I don't like it because it's another currency competing against the dollar."
>
He added that he wanted the dollar to be "the currency of the world".

And, to those who think this is not he's changed and been orange pilled since all of his comments before campaign season, I encourage you to wake up and smell the psyop.
Additionally...
Trump’s pitch to Libertarian voters is that if he's re-elected, he’ll push for Ross Ulbricht’s life sentence to be commuted.
**"However, during his 2024 re-election campaign announcement two years ago, Trump called on Congress to pass a law mandating the death penalty for drug dealers."**
Whistleblower Chelsea Manning was initially sentenced to 35 years in prison in 2013 for leaking classified documents. But in one of his last moves in office, former President Barack Obama commuted her sentence.
She was released on May 17, 2017, after serving about 7 years of her original sentence in isolation and excessively harsh conditions.
**In response to Manning’s first column for The Guardian since her commutation, Trump tweeted that Manning was an “ungrateful traitor” and should “never have been released.”**
Trump will say anything to get re-elected. He is an authortarian xenophobe, a twice impeached former President who has faced multiple legal proceedings.
Even now, as someone eloquently put it:
>He is not being prosecuted in the middle of his campaign.
>
>He is campaigning in the middle of his prosecutions.
It’s a psyop.
I don't trust politicians in general, but I especially don't trust Trump. He is a pathological liar, a danger to democracy, who has given the American people far too many reasons not to.
