@cspanofficial: President Trump said he does not discuss cryptocurrency with his sons because the presidency is a "much higher calling" as he compared himself to "other wealthy presidents." "One of the wealthiest, believe it or not, was George Washington," he said Monday in the Oval Office. "George Washington had two desks … one was for business and one was for the presidency. He had two desks in the same room, and so you're allowed to, but I choose not to." The remarks come as reports estimate the president earned about $636 million from his own cryptocurrency while investors collectively lost an estimated $3.8 billion on the same crypto venture. "I let my kids do whatever the hell they do they can do. I don't talk to them, ever, talk to them about it," he told reporters. "I'm allowed to, I think — I'm allowed to but I don't bother." #trump #crypto #bitcoin #cspan

So one minute is telling us, he loves his sons and the next minute is telling us he doesn’t speak to his sons so which one is it? He doesn’t talk to his investors that’s the first.

What is the function of crypto? Can you eat it? Can you buy eggs with it? Can you make money if you aren’t the one pulling the rug?

The presidency is too high an office to get involved in crypto, I agree. So where does involving yourself in football matters feature on this scale?

The craziest part, hear me out as someone who doesn’t care for him: he made a BILLION and I honestly believe he doesn’t even know it. His financial advisors obviously allocate funds to crypto, but I truly do believe he doesn’t realize how much he makes from it. That’s true wealth privilege too though 💯
