But in regards to this entire story, here is something even crazier that I think just lends itself to the overarching idea of corruption and hypocrisy.

To be fair, Trump is not the first president to have to deal with, you know, the betting markets and insider trading.

It has become an absolute behemoth of a beast that everyone is having to deal with.

And under Biden, Polymarket was actually being investigated for illegally operating in the United States.

The founder was raided by the FBI, had his phone taken, the whole nine yards.

And during his 2024 campaign, Trump ran obviously on, you know, transparency and ending corruption and ending insider trading.

But interestingly, by July of last year, the investigation into Polymarket was suspended, and Polymarket then had a pathway for operating here in the United States.

Now to take this even further, coincidentally now, Donald Trump Jr.

sits on the advisory board with his investment firm, being a significant backer of Polymarket's legal return to the United States market.

Father and son.

Now, again, I am not trying to accuse anyone.

Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly, I am just trying to point out things that I am seeing, but this is a pattern that people have noticed online.

It is something that Alex started noticing like in December, and now it is becoming a bigger and bigger conversation every single day, and the stakes are getting higher and higher.

CNN is writing about it.

Axios is writing about it.

Axios actually posted just a couple of days ago and said,

An epidemic of suspicious trading has emerged around Trump's most consequential decisions each time just minutes or hours before he rattles global markets.

It is precisely the kind of alleged corruption that Trump built his political career railing against.

Now I do want to be clear, I am not accusing Trump of anything.

I am not saying that he went and told people and people in his family are doing things.
