    The founders who wrote the Emoluments clause would have a cow if they saw that this guy, who was President once and is a coin flip away from doing it again, is quite literally traded on a public market. That alone should disqualify him.

    I think there is all sorts of foreign money pouring into that to prop up his personal net worth. And while I have no proof of that, just the fact that it looks like that is possible should be enough to steer votes away.

    But alas, 74 million people saw no problem with it last time, and that number is likely to grow.

      Also highlights how easily the wealthy can manipulate the market.

      Came here to say exactly this. Of course Musk knew this would happen - that’s why he tried so hard to get out of buying Twitter back in late 2022 before he realized it was a lost cause.
