Ripple Alum Spearheads Support Drive For XRP Attorney John Deaton’s Senate Run

Former Ripple director Sean McBride is rallying for a support drive for XRP attorney John Deaton’s Senate run. Moreover, he urged to vote for Deaton, citing concerns over big tech and Wall Street’s decline and spotlighted the government intervention in the crypto space.

In a recent post on X, McBride highlighted the shifting landscape where “big tech and Wall Street are slipping as crypto is soaring” and emphasized the need for change. Furthermore, he pointed to influential CEOs like JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon selling their own organization’s stock. In addition, he underscored concerns over the suppression of XRP by the Federal Government.

McBride warns against being misled by such actions. He asserted, “They are picking the winners and the losers.” Hence, he decided to advocate for Deaton. He stated, “People like John Deaton must be elected.”

While extending support to the XRP lawyer, McBride noted that the crypto community and others have to stand up against “corruption, invasion, and tyranny.” Moreover, McBride declared, “Next election is the most important election in the history of the United States.”

Although he didn’t directly mention disappointment towards Senator Elizabeth Warren, it was quite evident. Since Warren is an anti-crypto Senate candidate while Deaton is a pro-crypto opponent, support toward the latter rightly indicates a sense of dissatisfaction for her.

John Deaton To Oust Senator Elizabeth Warren?

On Tuesday, February 20, pro-XRP legal expert John Deaton officially declared his candidacy for the Senate, stepping into the political arena to challenge Sen. Elizabeth Warren as she seeks her third consecutive term in office. Meanwhile, speculations swirled around Deaton’s chances of ousting Warren from the office.

Moreover, Boston.com conducted a survey among its audience, receiving responses from over 500 individuals regarding their opinions on Deaton’s potential to unseat Warren in the upcoming November elections. The majority (57%) expressed their belief in Warren’s vulnerability to Deaton’s candidacy.

However, 39% held a contrasting view, emphasizing Warren’s entrenched position within the state’s political framework. They believe that ousting her would be a formidable task for the XRP attorney.
