#AltcoinETFsPostponed Eric Trump, the third child of Donald Trump, has played a prominent role in the first 100 days of his father’s second presidency, which began on January 20, 2025. In a CNBC interview, Eric defended the administration’s aggressive approach, stating that “the whole system needed a big kick in the pants” to address market volatility caused by policies like global tariffs. Engaged in World Liberty Financial, a DeFi platform, and serving as Chief Strategy Officer for American Bitcoin, Eric has spearheaded cryptocurrency initiatives, promoting the $TRUMP token as a global phenomenon. However, his actions, such as selling Ethereum at a loss after encouraging its purchase, have sparked allegations of market manipulation.
Eric has justified his father’s policies—including 141 executive orders, border militarization, and mass deportations—as essential to “renew America.” Despite Trump’s approval rating dipping to 44% per Gallup, Eric emphasized the unwavering support of the Republican base. His vision is resolute: to back a bold agenda of radical change, even at the cost of controversy, to leave a lasting impact. Through his business ventures and public defense of the administration, Eric remains a key figure in shaping its early legacy.
