Grifters thrive under Trump's scam-friendly administration
Briefly

On April 22nd, Fight Fight Fight LLC, linked to Donald Trump, invited top investors in its $TRUMP meme coin to an intimate dinner with the former president. This event raised ethical concerns about selling political access. Following the announcement, the coin's value surged, reportedly generating substantial profits for Trump and his associates. Despite demands for an ethics investigation by Democratic senators, Trump had previously removed officials who would handle such scrutiny. The incident reflects a growing trend of corruption and undermined oversight, allowing for increased exploitation in political wealth accumulation.
The meme coin dinner exemplifies a disturbing trend where access to elected officials is essentially sold to the highest bidder, eroding trust in government.
This dinner represents a new low in political ethics, where financial gains for a select few come at the expense of integrity and accountability.
