Crypto Bros Pump & Dump $Trump

Buckle up for a wild ride on the Tara Palmeri Show as we uncover the crypto caper that’s got everyone talking! Joined by The Verge’s Tina Nguyen, fresh from the Bitcoin Conference in Vegas, Tara dives into the murky waters of $TRUMP, where crypto bros allegedly pulled a fast one, shorting the coin all while snagging a glitzy dinner with the President. With a loophole wider than Mar-a-Lago’s gates, these high rollers gambled big, exposing an 88% stock crash and a meme coin teetering on the edge. Is this meme coin a golden goose or a fool’s gold scam? Welcome to The Tara Palmeri Show!  Tara Palmeri is one of the most feared and fearless political journalists.
