Trump is *Burying* his NFT Launch | Total Embarrassment.

at this point I imagine you've already

seen that Donald Trump has released an

nft collection that he believes would

make a good Christmas present but there

are two things that I think are very

interesting to note that maybe you might

not have seen in either the announcement

or in the fine print the first thing

that I think that's very interesting to

know is usually Donald Trump is

extremely optimistic that's one of his

characteristics is this idea that

everything is great it's amazing Nobody

Does it Better right this pure

confidence that Donald Trump generally

portrays however in Donald Trump's major

announcement post on Truth social

announcing this nft drop he actually in

two circumstances drops his ordinary

enthusiasm this is probably because in

the past he's actually disliked crypto

even CZ the founder of finance and the

CEO of binance whom I'm not the biggest

fan of but even CZ points out that

Donald Trump didn't used to be a fan of

crypto at all of a sudden drops an nft

collection seems odd but look at Donald

Trump's verbiage here major announcement

my official Donald Trump digital trading

card collection is here these limited

edition cards feature amazing art of my

life and career collect all of your

favorite Trump digital trading cards

very much like a baseball card but

hopefully much more exciting go to

collecttrumpcards.com and get your cards

now only 99 eat each would make a great

Christmas gift don't wait they will be

gone I believe very quickly okay so

where are the two notes here where he

actually qualifies his optimism

extremely out of character for Donald

Trump right here first but hopefully

more exciting than baseball cards Donald

you are offering people the chance to be

on a zoom call with you or the chance at

a meet and greet at the private Palm

Beach Resort or the unforgettable

private meeting with Donald Trump at

Mar-A-Lago right uh so folks these these

are like the pitches this is done as a

sweepstakes uh and the idea here is that

if you buy an nft you have a chance

essentially a raffle at getting one of

those those benefits but for Donald

Trump to suggest that his trading cards

will hopefully be much more exciting is

very very out of character it is also

very out of character for him to say

they will be gone I believe very quickly

it in my opinion Donald Trump is

actually not very optimistic about this

I think he's actually shaking his head

at how ridiculous this is and he's his

credibility is getting hit for this

because it's kind of like I hate crypto

now I love crypto because I'm dropping

my nft collection but in addition to

that it's worth noting that if you look

at the fine print of this uh this this

website collecttrumpcards.com

entry requests blah blah blah blah over

here so nft International

LLC that's the company that that puts

this uh website together over here uh

and I'm in the way right now of you

being able to see that corner there so

I'll just move myself temporarily right

there there we go nft International LLC

is not owned managed or controlled by

Donald Trump so this is actually not a

Donald Trump product

the Trump organization cic digital or

any respective principles including

Donald Trump instead nft International

LLC uses Donald Trump's name likeness

and image under a paid license

from cic digital LLC which license may

be terminated or revoked according to

its terms so in other words

Donald Trump sold

his name and likeness to an nft company

and probably got paid a minimum along

with I would guess some kind of split so

for example somebody may have gone up to

Donald Trump and said something

effective hey we'll pay you 20 million

bucks and a worst case scenario you need

to do 30 minutes on a zoom call and

shake a few hands at Mar-A-Lago don't

worry we'll get them there you know

we'll pay the flight or whatever but

you'll get 20 mil just for doing that

and giving us a license to use your name

we'll do the art we'll sell the nfts

we'll do the website all we really want

you to do is let us license your name do

a quick little video post on Truth

social done

and there you go now Donald Trump has an

nft collection that I personally don't

actually believe he really believes in I

kind of think Donald Trump sold out here

I think he doesn't believe in crypto

somebody waved some cash in front of his

face he's got an expensive campaign

coming up he's gotten uh he's got a

criminal lawsuit that the Trump

organization just lost for tax fraud

he's got substantial civil lawsuits

happening he's in a situation where you

know what may as well start and only

fans at this point because obviously

it's okay to sell yourself on things

that you don't believe in just to make

an extra Buck now look I personally have

stopped all sponsors on this channel

because I know I 100 always can trust my

own product because I have control over

it now I've sponsored other programs on

this platform before and I do so because

I believe they're good products but

after some of the recent debacles that

have occurred where where Executives can

just destroy a reputation of a company

uh you can't trust other companies so in

my opinion for Donald Trump to go from

the level of I've got so much wealth

and crypto sucks to now I have an nft

collection it's my major announcement

and they're just licensing my name but

yeah you should go buy it and I believe

it'll sell out and it'll hopefully be

much more exciting it just seems to me

very doubtful that Donald Trump is

actually very enthusiastic about the

actual nft project instead it seems like

Donald Trump is much more interested in

taking that payout now what else is

fascinating is just two hours after the

drop which is getting a lot of criticism

online even from Republicans who are

saying this is it this is you know Peak

Donald Trump is behind us two hours

after that Donald Trump tried releasing

a policy pitch for his presidential

campaign outlining his goals for free

speech I think this is kind of a way to

sort of bury the nft project it's like

now I'm announcing the nft project okay

that launch is an embarrassment uh what

do Republicans want to hear Free Speech

release to the Free Speech plan so we

have restoring Free Speech overview

banned federal agencies from colluding

to Central American citizens nobody

wants that uh obviously I mean that kind

of almost goes without saying ban

taxpayer dollars from being used to

label speech as miss or disinformation

this is kind of like the anti-ministry

of Truth argument that white is the

Biden Administration have uh you know

basically a truth department where they

can coordinate with social media

platforms and decide what is Miss or

disinformation Facebook's involved in

this Twitter was involved in this with

back doors for these sort of

organizations terrible fire every

Federal bureaucrat who has engaged in

domestic censorship

okay uh

uh immediately sent preservation letters

to the Biden Administration and big Tech

Giants this is a way of saying hey we

want to be able to see what kind of

censorship you have done in the past so

that way if we want to do a Facebook

files like a Twitter files leak where we

could see ah interesting politicians

have been able to request that certain

tweets have been deleted and you all

agreed to delete those we want to

maintain a long history of those or an

ability to investigate exactly what

happened I don't think anybody would

disagree with that order the Department

of Justice to investigate all parties

involved in online censorship and

prosecute any and all crimes identified

sure revised section 230 to drastically

curtail a big Tech platforms power to

restrict a lawful speech remember

section 230 is essentially a the

difference between a platform and a

publisher a platform is a place where

you go to speak freely and say whatever

you want if you say something illegal

you are liable not the platform a

publisher is something like a newspaper

where an editor decides what is posted

and what is not posted and in that case

the publisher takes liability but

because there are platforms like Twitter

that sometimes send searchings things

like hate speech we know this has

happened they are kind of in this like

Blurry line well what are they are they

a publisher if they're censoring stuff

and picking what's allowed to be posted

not isn't that kind of now becoming a

publisher but you're still a platform

and you know we want platforms because

we don't want to hurt free speech by

getting rid of those companies if they

have too much liability then what if

potentially then they all disappear so

yeah a lot of issues around 230 in terms

of exactly how to balance that and it's

obviously a big thing that Elon Musk

over at Twitter is now trying to uh

clean up

and then of course it's come with a lot

of issues as well including all of the

Elon jet drama although now Elon Musk

has come up with a policy along with

Twitter to suggest that there shall be

no live tracking of people's locations

they could be like no real-time doxing

of people's locations right instead it

would be okay to post let's say flight

tracking data after maybe a 24-hour

reasonable delay

stop Federal funding for all non-profits

and academic programs engaged in

censorship suspend federal dollars to

any Universities that have engaged in

censorship support activities enact

criminal penalties for bureaucrats who

partner with private entities to violate

your constitutional right now that's

really interesting because generally if

you work for the federal government you

are typically personally immune from

prosecution so let's say you work at the

Biden administration's Ministry of Truth

you could in theory kind of go off and

censor as much as you want without being

penalized when you're violating other

people's rights I don't actually see

that happening but it makes a powerful

statement

it posed a seven year cooling off period

before former Intel and National

Security officials can work with big

Tech platforms oh this is a slam of like

people going from uh the FBI to then go

work at Twitter right pass a digital

Bill of Rights which would probably just

be like memorializing some of what what

is posted here hey look you know what

that that's not a terrible outline I

think uh it's probably more political

yapping than reality uh some of the

intentions there are good I think there

are a lot of revisions that need to be

made to social media platforms but

honestly I think that's restoring Free

Speech overview is just a political

piece to try to bury this nft

embarrassment

my take
