I'm amazed that the people dumb enough to fall for crypto are able to see through Trump like a window. It's surreal.

To be fair, I wouldn't blanket that convention with "people who fell for crypto". You've got those, but more likely people who sell crypto who are either con men or tech bros. I'm not at all surprised they'd be unimpressed with the low IQ con man, lol

Fair point. My implication was for the suckers who lost their savings, not the asshole rug pullers who did the scamming. I should have been clearer about that.

Mamy people fall for crypto for greed, not stupidity.
