ORANGE MAN BAD

-a short story for nostr

I know there will be a lot of people who either don’t care or disagree with me but hear me out…

I also know most bitcoiners would be Trump supporters, if he was more into bitcoin.

Trump once said bitcoin “seems like a scam” and he “wasn’t a fan”

But outside of that, crickets.

This week however, he did denounce CBDCs. Said they would never happen under him.

And I can’t remember Trump saying too many things he didn’t mean.

He has people’s trust. He did many things that don’t get nearly enough credit.

*Had anyone really heard of how prevalent child trafficking was before Trump made it his mission to get rid of? I know some people had, but no where near the amount of today.

So anyways.

If no CBDCs, then what? What’s his alternative?

In 2024, a gold settlement??

Trump isn’t a dummy.

You think an average Jor like me could understand game theory, and Trumpy couldn’t??

He’s a businessman. And a very intelligent guy who is surrounded by some of the best minds on earth.

His son owns bitcoin…

His wife tweeted Happy Birthday to the bitcoin white paper on Oct 31…

His main guy General Flynn tweeted about bitcoin saying “it’s the future” back in 2015…

He hired Brian Brooks (known bitcoiner) as comptroller during his term…

He also has NFTs (on polygon). This would’ve got a ton of people into crypto. Aka the gateway to bitcoin.

*It’s where I came from.

Trump knows about bitcoin.

So why can’t he come out and support it?

Think about it.

Everyone would call it the “Trump coin” and none of the democrats or liberals or anyone else with Trump derangement syndrome would use it.

Bitcoin is for everyone.

It’s being adopted by everyone. Not just conservative voters - although (we) do appear to have the upper hand. But he didn’t have to say it out loud.

If he wanted bitcoin to succeed, it had to be without his endorsement.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think we can vote our way out of this mess. But I do think that if Trump gets back in, our fight won’t be near as tough/long.

Just my opinion.

If you have any hard evidence saying otherwise, drop it below. Debates are welcome.

Orange man bad.

You make decent points, but I actually would not be surprised if the exact opposite happened. It’s less about his views and more who he hires. He’s proven he can’t do that. Mnuchin was very anti bitcoin. Also he seems to latch onto whatever his base talks about. I don’t think he would have pushed the trafficking issue without his followers screaming about it. It doesn’t seem like a majority of his followers are bitcoiners (from what I’ve seen). Dollar supremacy still means something to these types.

At the end of the day, he made his fortune through real estate, low interest rates, and printing. He has zero incentive to promote bitcoin and would ultimately demonetize his fortune in doing so unless he has a bag.

I voted for him in 2020 so I’m not anti orange man or anything. Just my opinion.

I agree that he is a US dollar maxi. He’s said it many times.

He is America #1. America First.

Which is very admiral in my eyes.

Compare that to Biden and Trudeau 🙄 who are America and Canada Last.

But I wouldn’t say he’s a fiat maxi. Like you said - he made money on real estate. Not through hedge funds or on the backs of others. He didn’t even take a salary in office.

He understands real assets. And he understands how to protect his assets from the fiat world.

Same mindset as bitcoin. Find ways to go around the system.

I would disagree that he latches onto what people are talking about. I don’t remember anyone talking about child trafficking before Trump became president.

Would Epstein have been arrested if Killary won?

I do think the success of bitcoin is a much greater battle. But having guys like Trump instead of guys like Biden helps the odds significantly. And most bitcoiners don’t see that.

He definitely has a bag! Haha
