Regardless of my distaste for Trump, I wanted to share this (for the same reason that Charles thought it was significant enough to do his first-ever reaction video) since it is significant in that it is the only time an ex-president has spoken at a Bitcoin conference.

I had avoided sharing this video because I thought it was going to be Charles praising Trump. But, he’s actually endorsing Kennedy and had LOTS of critical words for Trump. Trump was predictably off-topic for most of his speech. He basically just name-dropped and rambled on topics that aren’t even remotely related to BTC for twenty straight minutes. The speech was unbelievably bad until he started pandering to his audience about firing Gary Genseler, won Charles over a tiny bit with those words.

We also got see Charles being a goofy dork while he waited for the speech to start, overdubbing the pundits with his own brand of absurd humor.

TLDR; Charles says that Kennedy is the best candidate for the crypto industry and that he actually has a brain and is a “thinking man” despite reports that he literally had a worm eating parts of his brain for years before he found out.

Personally, I won’t even cast a vote in this sham election. I have no dog in the race and sane, common sense leftist perspectives are literally unrepresented in American political theater and will continue to be until they tear it all down and start with a new constitution.

    I can’t watch any videos of Trump. His shit-eating grin, and self-satisfied smirk make me angry.

      I don’t blame you. As an American 🙈, ALL facets of American politics utterly disgust me; I’m flanked on all sides and outnumbered by morons that pin their hopes on carnival-barkers like Trump.

        I was just thinking about that today. It’s a fucking carnival now. It’s a sporting event. It’s a festival for the stupidest people in the country. I sorely miss serious, competent, political processes.
