Maybe our extremely greased boy will be president one day
Reminder that Sam Bankman-Fried, (alleged) Ponzi scammer behind FTX (exchange whose products are banned in the US but advertise everywhere), is the largest donor to the Democratic Party.
Hell you don't even have to go that deep. Investment leaches gave more to Biden than Trump by a metric ton, and more than they gave to Obama over his 2 terms combined (and I don't need to remind people how friendly he was with them).
And while yes, I am sure it is in no small part due to Trump being incredibly mercurial and throwing markets into disarray frequently...they still can use that money as leverage.
I also suspect it's more related to lobbying (Dems have hinted at being crypto unfriendly, nip it in the bud) but his board has given money to the GOP as well.
