As President Donald Trump prepares to welcome the top investors in his meme coin to a private dinner, centrist Senate Democrats gave a different kind of gift to the crypto industry on Monday.
Two weeks after helping tank an earlier vote on the so-called stablecoin bill, a group of 16 Democrats voted with nearly every Republican to push the bill past a filibuster threat.
They’re all just so damn corrupt. This isn’t even one of those bills that skittish Democrats will fret about looking like they’re against the police or military and thus requires that they prostrate themselves for belly rubs by Republicans. Crypto’s influence is entirely monetary. Regular people think it’s a scammy casino for unpleasant nerds.
