Why Is Trump Involved In Crypto?

His face may not be on any currency issued by the federal government, but President Trump has lent his support and image to a meme coin, a kind of cryptocurrency. We look at how his policies on crypto intersect with his business endeavors.

This episode: political correspondent Sarah McCammon, political reporter Stephen Fowler, and senior national political correspondent Mara Liasson.

The podcast is produced by Bria Suggs and edited by Casey Morell. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
