众议院民主党人瞄准唐纳德·特朗普总统的$特朗普模因硬币

尽管唐纳德·特朗普总统在国会山上最骄傲的支持者通过立法向他淋浴，并提出将他的肖像放在250美元的账单上，宣布他的生日是国定假日，或者将他的肖像添加到拉什莫尔山上 - 在过道上的新努力并不那么受宠若惊 - 众议院民主党人瞄准了总统的$ trump meme coin。

President Donald Trump's proudest supporters on Capitol Hill aren't short of proposals to put his portrait on a $250 bill, declare his birthday a national holiday or add his likeness to Mount Rushmore. But across the aisle, a new effort is less flattering — as House Democrats are taking aim at the president’s $TRUMP meme coin.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）总统在国会大厦山（Capitol Hill）最骄傲的支持者不足以提议将他的肖像贴在250美元的账单上，宣布他的生日是国定假日，或者将他的肖像添加到拉什莫尔山（Mount Rushmore）。但是在整个过道中，新的努力并不那么讨人喜欢 - 因为众议院民主党人瞄准了总统的$特朗普模因硬币。

Since launching a little over a month ago, the $TRUMP coin has seen its value tank after early investors dumped the cryptocurrency. Members of Congress have noticed as hundreds of thousands of investors have taken hard hits and billions in value have quickly vanished.

自一个多月前推出以来，特朗普硬币在早期投资者抛弃加密货币之后就看到了其价值坦克。国会议员注意到，成千上万的投资者遭受了艰苦的打击和数十亿的价值，很快就消失了。

California freshman Democrat Rep. Sam Liccardo told ABC News that he will introduce legislation to prohibit the country’s top officials and their families — from Congress to the White House — from capitalizing on personal meme coins.

加利福尼亚大一新生民主党众议员萨姆·列卡多（Sam Liccardo）告诉美国广播公司（ABC News），他将介绍立法，禁止该国的顶级官员及其家人（从国会到白宫）利用个人模因硬币。

The Modern Emoluments and Malfeasance Enforcement (MEME) Act would prohibits the president, vice president, members of Congress, senior executive branch officials and their spouses and dependent children from issuing, sponsoring or endorsing a security, future, commodity or digital asset.

《现代艾尔将和渎职执法法》（MEME）法案将禁止总统，副主席，国会议员，高级执行分支机构官员及其配偶以及受抚养子女发行，赞助或认可安全，未来，商品或数字资产。

Liccardo said he believes that the president and first lady Melania Trump cashed in on their meme coins and enriched investors around the world who initially supported the cryptocurrency.

Liccardo说，他认为总统和第一夫人梅拉尼亚·特朗普（Melania Trump）兑现了自己的模因硬币，并丰富了最初支持加密货币的全球投资者。

Trump launched the coin in January, days before he took office. A similar Melania coin had been issued a week earlier. Trump in July said he wanted to turn the U.S. into the “crypto capital of the planet.”

特朗普在一月份上任前几天发射了硬币。一周前也发布了类似的梅拉尼亚硬币。特朗普在七月说，他想将美国变成“地球的加密首都”。

While Liccardo’s legislation is not expected to become law over the next two years under Republican majorities in the House and Senate, the freshman Democrat said that the president and first lady made a windfall on their respective meme coins and is working to build support that culminates behind a Democrat majority.

尽管在众议院和参议院的共和党多数派的领导下，预计利卡多的立法不会在未来两年内成为法律，但新生民主党人说，总统和第一夫人在各自的模因硬币上陷入了意外之际，并正在努力建立支持民主党多数派背后的支持。

“Let’s make corruption criminal again,” Liccardo, a former federal and local criminal prosecutor, said. “Our public offices belong to the public, not the officeholders, nor should they leverage their political authority for financial gain. The Trumps’ issuance of meme coins financially exploits the public for personal gain, and raises the specter of insider trading and foreign influence over the Executive Branch.”

前联邦和地方刑事检察官利卡尔多说：“让我们再次使腐败犯罪。” “我们的公共办公室属于公众，而不是办公室持有人，也不应利用其政治权力来获得经济利益。特朗普对模因硬币的发行在财务上剥夺了公众的个人利益，并提高了内幕贸易和外国对行政部门的影响力。”

The proposal would forbid federal officials from promoting a range of financial assets or from participating in any conduct likely to financially benefit themselves, according to Liccardo. The legislation would impose criminal and civil penalties and includes a prohibition that applies to any financial asset, such as the stock of Truth Social.

据LICCARDO称，该提案将禁止联邦官员推广一系列金融资产或参加任何可能在财务上受益的行为。该立法将对刑事和民事处罚施加，并包括适用于任何金融资产的禁令，例如《真理社会的股票》。

Liccardo wants to subject violators to criminal and civil penalties while stopping them from profiting from an asset issued before the bill's enactment — giving it retroactive element intended to address the launch of $TRUMP.

利卡多（Liccardo）希望使违规者处以刑事和民事处罚，同时阻止他们从法案制定前发行的资产中获利 - 赋予其追溯元素，旨在解决$ trump的推出。

Liccardo said he has a dozen Democratic cosponsors as he prepares to introduce the legislation on Thursday.

Liccardo说，他准备在周四介绍该立法时，有十几个民主党共同提案。
