A photograph. Three words. One meme coin. And a private dinner with the President of the United States.
In July 2024, a failed assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania produced one of the most recognizable images of Donald Trump’s political career: a raised fist and the words, “Fight! Fight! Fight!”
Less than a year later, those same words became the name of a company. That company launched the $TRUMP meme coin, a cryptocurrency that quickly grew into a multi-billion-dollar phenomenon.
In this episode, independent journalist Darisse Smith follows the story from the Butler rally to the launch of the $TRUMP coin, examining the roles of CIC Digital LLC, Fight Fight Fight LLC, and other Trump-linked business entities. You’ll learn how meme coins work, why investors rushed to buy the token, and how ownership of the coin became a ticket to an exclusive May 2025 dinner with President Trump.
Along the way, we’ll explore the questions raised by journalists, ethics experts, and members of Congress: What happens when a sitting president is connected to a financial asset that can be purchased by investors around the world? Does cryptocurrency create new challenges for transparency and accountability? And where should the line be drawn between private business interests and public office?
Whether you view the $TRUMP coin as innovation, entrepreneurship, political branding, or a conflict of interest, this episode examines one of the most unusual intersections of cryptocurrency, politics, and presidential power in modern American history.
The Journalism of Everything is hosted by independent journalist Darisse Smith, bringing curiosity, research, and context to the stories shaping our world.
