Donald Trump faces mounting ethical scrutiny in his second term, particularly over his promotion of the $TRUMP memecoin, which offered top holders access to a private dinner with him, sparking a $100 million buying frenzy. Critics allege this creates a "pay-to-play" system for presidential access . Additionally, Trump rescinded Biden-era ethics rules, lifting restrictions on lobbyist gifts and revolving-door employment, which watchdogs call a reversal of his "drain the swamp" pledge . Further concerns include White House events promoting Tesla, benefiting adviser Elon Musk, and potential conflicts involving family financial deals .
