TL;DR - Insiders were allowed to buy Trump meme coins first and to dump them first, a pump and dump scheme, costing MAGAs over $4B

Hey, MAGA. If Joe Biden or Obama pulled this kind of scam what would you be saying?

In related news, Trump Mobile -- which promised to be made exclusively in America, and launch September 2025 -- still hasn't launched. All mention of being manufactured in America has been removed (now it will be "made with America values"). The last prototype looks absolutely nothing like what was promised, appears to be Wingtech Revvl 7 with just a different outer shell (which is manufactured exclusively in China), the price is already projected to be more than what people contracted for (about $200 more), and there's no new official launch date.

Almost 600,000 MAGA faithful gave deposits to Trump for a pre-order of the phone.

Willful ignorance is expensive. I'd pity these people if they deserved it, but they don't.

If you're stupid enough to vote for being screwed, you deserved to get screwed.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

If you have paid a deposit for this product then you are an incompetent adult. Incapable of logic and common sense. Irresponsible. I have zero sympathy for you if you lose money to this scam. It’s more Madoff than Madoff.
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

See my previous post for what I think about grown adults who have put their money into Trump bitcoin. F****** idiots.

Yeah, well Biden lent his brother (?) $6,000 once to help him buy a truck, which is what had Markk going on for some 5 years about how that made Joe a corrupt crime lord of unparalleled historical example. Because mumble mumble something.

But, creating a memecoin grift to allow insider friends to purchase in front of the public so that they can extract $4 BILLION In a pump’n’dump scheme? Totally cool, squeaks MAGA.

And then to have some of those insiders publicly admit that they lined up to purchase $Trump because they believed that it would guarantee access to presidential favors? Also cool, according to MAGA.

Oh, and then to repeat the same grift again with a $MELANIA memecoin, which tanked even harder? Also still cool in MAGA’s eyes. Carry on!

Trump has created the griftiest, most corrupt swamp that DC has ever experienced, and MAGA is here for all of that. Heck, they’re lining up now to deposit $10 BILLION more taxpayer dollars into Donnie’s personal bank account because some lone wolf at the IRS leaked some of his tax information years ago, and now Donnie is suing our own government.

MAGA won’t rethink their loyalty, though. They’ve gotta suck up to Donnie, while he sucks cash out of his Base in the midst of publicly humiliating them every day, because he knows that his Base has no spine nor standards.

They would say it was Bill Clinton's fault...... conservatives are always looking backwards.
