Ben Shapiro Rips Trump A New One Over Qatari Plane And Crypto Scheme
Oh no, I'm agreeing with Ben Shapiro. Well, a broken clock, etc. Shapiro spent quite a bit of airtime blasting Donald J. Trump for not putting "America first." Jinkies, Ben, if only someone had warned the voting public about the grifter.
"Like, please define America first in a way that says you should take sacks of cash from the Qatari royals who are behind al-Jazeera," Shapiro said, Media Matters reports. "It just isn't America first in any conceivable way. So, back to the original question — is this good for President Trump? Is it good for his agenda? Is it good for draining the swamp and getting things done? The answer is no. It isn't. It isn't."
"If you want President Trump to succeed, this kind of skeezy stuff needs to stop," he continued. "And here's the thing, it's already having an impact. It's already having an impact."
"Y'all remember President Trump launching dollar sign Trump crypto three days before taking office as president," Shapiro said. "Trump himself announced the Trump crypto on X. On Truth Social, he described it as a meme coin, meaning it had no inherent value. It was just there for the kind of bleeps and giggles. The price spiked to a trading value of nearly $13 billion, making it the 19th most valuable cryptocurrency on planet Earth. And then it proceeded to plummet, like, really, really dive."
