Democrats Torn Between Anti-Trump Rhetoric and Crypto Regulation Bill Support
Senate Democrats are gearing up to criticize President Donald Trump on corruption claims, but some party members worry that their message will be undermined by their own efforts to pass a contentious crypto regulation bill backed by the White House.
The bill, which has drawn criticism from both sides of the aisle, is aimed at regulating the vast and complex world of cryptocurrency. According to sources, Trump's network of crypto ventures netted him $1.4 billion last year.
Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) held a forum this week attacking Trump for allegedly engaging in self-dealing and enriching himself off the presidency through these ventures.
