特朗普的上市前加密货币特技表演已经收取了3.2亿美元，促使新立法

自从特朗普就职之前宣布以来，这枚硬币已经收取了3.2亿美元，促使杰夫·默克利（Jeff Merkley）（D-OR），克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）（D-CT）和其他人介绍了立法，以防止总统和官员们进行立法

A White House official on Friday shot down questions about whether President Trump’s personal financial interests could be affected by a dinner later this year for coin collectors, despite it being framed as an initiative to benefit veterans.

白宫官员周五在今年晚些时候为币收集者的晚宴影响了特朗普总统的个人财务利益的问题，尽管它是为了使退伍军人受益的倡议。

The administration is planning the dinner, for which foreign nationals could pay up to $50,000 to attend, after a bill to ban presidents and officials in Senate-confirmed positions from issuing, sponsoring, or endorsing specific financial instruments was tabled in Congress earlier this year.

政府正在计划晚宴，外国国民可以为此支付50,000美元的付款，此前该账单禁止总统和官员担任参议院确认的职位，无法发行，赞助或认可特定的特定金融工具。

The bill, which was introduced by Senators Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Chris Murphy (D-CT) following the announcement of Trump’s new coin, is intended to prevent presidents from being personally involved in cryptocurrency ventures.

该法案是由参议员杰夫·默克利（D-OR）和克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）（D-CT）提出的，该法案宣布了特朗普的新硬币，旨在防止总统亲自参与加密货币。

“The president is abiding by all conflict of interest laws,” Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, told reporters on Friday. “The president has been incredibly transparent with his own personal financial obligations throughout the years. The president is a successful businessman, and I think, frankly, it’s one of the reasons that people reelected him.”

白宫新闻秘书卡琳·让·皮埃尔（Karine Jean-Pierre）周五对记者说：“总统正在遵守所有利益冲突法律。” “多年来，总统对自己的个人财务义务一直非常透明。总统是一位成功的商人，坦率地说，这是人们拒绝他的原因之一。”

Jean-Pierre demurred when pressed on whether the dinner, which foreign nationals could attend, was a chance for coin owners to lobby Trump about public policy.

让·皮埃尔（Jean-Pierre）在施压时对外国国民是否可以参加的晚餐表示反感，这是硬币主人游说公共政策的机会。

“Look, I can assure you, the president acts with only the interests of the American public in mind, putting our country first and doing what’s best for our country,” Jean-Pierre said. “Full stop. Best intentions.”

让·皮埃尔（Jean-Pierre）说：“看，我可以向您保证，总统只会牢记美国公众​​的利益，将我们的国家放在首位，并为我们的国家做最好的事情。” “完全停止。最佳意图。”

However, Jean-Pierre’s protestations did not stop questions concerning ethics, particularly ahead of Trump’s trip to the Middle East next week. The trip comes shortly after his sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, embarked on similar tours of the region and Europe to underscore the family’s business interests.

但是，让·皮埃尔（Jean-Pierre）的抗议活动并没有阻止有关道德规范的问题，尤其是在下周特朗普前往中东之旅之前。这次旅行是在儿子唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump Jr.）和埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）进行之后不久，开始了该地区和欧洲的类似之旅，以强调家庭的商业利益。

Those interests include a billion-dollar luxury hotel in the United Arab Emirates and a villa complex in Qatar, as well as a UAE-supported venture capital fund using a currency provided by the Trump cryptocurrency firm World Liberty Financial. The president will be in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE next week.

这些利益包括阿拉伯联合酋长国的一家价值十亿美元的豪华酒店和卡塔尔的别墅综合大楼，以及使用特朗普加密货币公司World Liberty Financial提供的货币的阿联酋支持的风险投资基金。总统下周将在沙特阿拉伯，卡塔尔和阿联酋。

“It’s frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit,” Jean-Pierre said. “He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service, not just once, but twice.”

让·皮埃尔（Jean-Pierre）说：“坦率地说，这个房间里的任何人甚至都建议特朗普总统为自己的利益做任何事情。” “他留下了奢侈的生活，并拥有一个非常成功的房地产帝国公共服务的生活，不仅是一次，而且两次。”

Jean-Pierre remained adamant that Trump “is a president who has actually lost money for being president of the United States.”

让·皮埃尔（Jean-Pierre）坚持认为特朗普“是一名总统，实际上是因为当美国总统而损失了钱。”
