Comment on Trump promotes family's new crypto platform, 'The Defiant Ones'

There’s no deceit involved in this case.
I mean, there’s no deceit involved in modern UI\UX in social platforms either, but the paradigms are taken from gambling machines.

With Trump the grift is usually that they people who buy in think they are funding his campagn whereas he uses much of the money for other stuff like his personal lawsuits for business fraud and the like.
