$TRUMP crypto

To: Sen. Ernst, Sen. Grassley, Rep. Feenstra

From: A verified voter in Ames, IA

May 3

I’m reaching out as your constituent because I’m really concerned about the reports that Donald Trump has launched a cryptocurrency ($TRUMP coin) through something called World Liberty Financial. From what I’ve read, it sounds like his inner circle controls a large portion of the coin, which raises serious red flags. If he were a private citizen, that’d be one thing—but if he wins the presidency and stands to profit from crypto while also setting policy around it, that’s a major conflict of interest. It looks like a backdoor way to benefit personally from his office again, and possibly even skirt constitutional rules like the Emoluments Clause. It also worries me that foreign actors could buy into this coin, and that his administration might weaken oversight in a way that benefits his own holdings. This isn’t just about crypto—it’s about whether public office is being used for personal profit. Please take a serious look at this situation. We need transparency and accountability, and accountability, especially when it comes to financial influence tied to anyone running for—or holding—public office.
