Trump’s meme coin isn’t proof the White House is for sale. says Michael Knowles

Donald Trump is profiting from a meme coin linked to a contest offering buyers a chance to dine with him at one of his golf clubs. While the initiative has raised concerns about potential influence-buying, political commentator Michael Knowles defended it, calling it a version of traditional political fundraising. However, unlike typical fundraisers, the money from this contest goes directly to Trump, not a campaign. Critics worry that this setup could allow individuals or entities to gain influence over Trump by investing in his cryptocurrency. Knowles, however, dismissed those concerns and shifted focus to Joe Biden's wealth.
