Serious question for Anti-trumpers - are you refusing to open trump accounts for your children or are you willing to attach your name to something labeled with trump?

I don’t know that I’d call it refusing, but I’m not interested. I don’t need Trump to get my kids in a strong financial position.

Thank you for the kind words from a fellow MD, MD2. Actually all kids are eligible for the Trump accounts. Only a small portion get $1k.

Tanking USD and rising inflation with worst job market in the decade. The dude is more focused on international wars and playing UN- $1000 is a pittance compared to how the tax dollars are getting invested. Oh yeah, tariffs - good to get some refund from that extra tax I have paid all year long.

Anyone who think this should be a question needs to get their heads checked. He works for you and your money, not the other way round. A elected leader Naming something after themselves while in office is the most un American thing I’ve seen

OP - The way you phrased this question makes me ask the more important one - you’re still a supporter, after you reviewed the E files? Not a single one of the million name mentions, nor the pictures and videos of kids, bother you?

Why does he attach his name to everything?

likehelpful

Narcissists and wanna-be dictators and kings do this. See also Modi in India, he attached his face to every Covid vaccine certificate, as if he invented it.

funny

other than the initial 1k investment I just don't see how it's set up in an advantageous way. you are better off just investing in a brokerage.

at the moment, I don't envision using it but not because of the name.

And that 1k investment is only for kids born in specific years

You can oppose Trump and still profit from market conditions that exist under his administration. I support strong social systems, education, and women’s healthcare, but my investments are performing well in the current GOP environment. I’ll take the returns and free cash where they exist, without crediting the rhetoric and sentiment that helped create them.

As long as it’s good I don’t generally care what it’s called or which party implements it.
