Trump campaign team released a statement on general election debates expressing disappointment with political chaos surrounding Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. Meanwhile, people await his attendance at the Bitcoin Conference.
“Given the continued political chaos surrounding Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee,” said Trump’s communications director Steven Cheung.
Also, the statement insisted that many in the Democrat Party such as Barack Hussein Obama believe Harris cant beat Donald Trump and they are still deciding their Democrat presidential nominee. Thus, Trump and his team think “it would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds.”

Experts and Politicians’s Attendance at Bitcoin Conference
Trump will be speaking at the Bitcoin Conference. He has raked in over $4 million in crypto donations to his re-election bid from industry leaders. Other notable politicians such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Senator Cynthia Lummis will be attending the 2024 conference.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., another pro-crypto presidential candidate, has revealed his support for BTC. He plans to add a BTC reserve equivalent to the gold reserve, approximately $615 billion. “I am a huge supporter of Bitcoin,” Kennedy said at a recent conference.
Kamala Harris recently refused to attend and speak at the Bitcoin conference. She was criticized and the crypto community called out the Democratic Party on their loss pointing to a crypto-focused election. She has released her first election ad after rejecting the proposal by the conference.
BTC price jumped nearly 5% in the last 24 hours, with the price currently trading at $67,300. Analysts are eyeing new all-time high amid support from Trump and other leaders.
