  August: World Liberty CEO Zach Witkoff told CNBC its USD1 stablecoin’s success refutes accusations of Trump cronyism. November: USD1’s market cap is down $2.2B — about 40% — since its February peak, and ~20% since he said that. (Sorry, I don't make the rules.) https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/25/world-liberty-financial-says-stablecoin-success-refutes-trump-cronyism-charge.html

  If the point of Trump’s Nov. 22 dinner for top $TRUMP holders at his golf club was to pump the meme coin, it’s failed spectacularly. The price is down about 40% since the contest launched in early October and is sitting near its all-time low. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/official-trump?chart=type%3Dprice%26mode%3Dline%26timeframe%3Dd30

  Market cap for Trump's USD1 stablecoin has dropped by more than $1 billion in the past month. That's $1 billion LESS of other people's money earning interest for Trump and the rest of World Liberty Financial. (Why anyone would give our billionaire president an interest-free loan is another question—albeit one we can guess the answer to.) https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/usd1-wlfi?chart=type%3Dmarket_cap%26mode%3Dline%26timeframe%3Dd30
